8月下旬までに、SpaceXはガスタービンのブレードとベーンの鋳造を社内で行うことを確認しました。これは、AIデータセンターを支える新しい天然ガス発電所の最大のボトルネックでした。マスク氏は、この取り組みによりタービンを最大18ヶ月早く稼働させられる可能性があると述べました。
Elon Musk has a track record of calling hard problems early.
In a February 2026 interview, he warned: “Those who have lived in software land don’t realize they’re about to have a hard lesson in hardware.”
By late August, SpaceX confirmed it was bringing the casting of gas-turbine blades and vanes in-house — the single biggest bottleneck for new natural-gas power plants needed to feed AI data centers. Musk said the move could bring turbines online up to 18 months faster.
Today he put it even more bluntly: SpaceX has “a super cracked team that is outperforming the rest of the world by an order of magnitude in mass to orbit — and even we find it very difficult.”
Hardware doesn’t care about demos, funding rounds, or slide decks. The teams that actually build the hard stuff keep winning.
What a legend.

イーロン・マスクは、難しい問題を早い段階で指摘する実績があります。
2026年2月のインタビューで、彼は警告しました：「ソフトウェアの世界に生きてきた人々は、ハードウェアの厳しい教訓がすぐそこまで迫っていることに気づいていません。」

今日、彼はさらに率直にこう語りました：SpaceXには「軌道上への大量輸送で世界の残りを桁違いに上回る、超一流のチームがありますが、それでも私たち自身が非常に困難だと感じています。」
ハードウェアはデモや資金調達ラウンド、スライド資料などには一切関心がありません。実際に難しいものを構築するチームが勝ち続けます。
なんて伝説的な人でしょう。

Musk has opted for independent gas turbine production for his ai data centres - whilst the UK and Ireland suck the domestic electric grid dry because our politicians can't innovate - they're greedy & retarded.

Interesting how his teams and companies repeatedly find new products they need, source them, study them and then integrates their own version vertically, just because they can do it better.
Are Tesla and SpaceX suppliers doomed to be outpaced by their customer?

SpaceX does both hardware and software. Software is the easy part, it is because of hardware that Elon will win the SI race the same way he won the space race.
