Billionaire Elon Musk expressed agreement with a fellow tech leader’s forecast that there will be approximately 1 billion humanoid robots on Earth within two decades.

Musk conveyed his concurrence with David Holz, the founder of the artificial intelligence (AI) research lab Midjourney, on X (formerly Twitter).

Holz predicted in a recent post that “we should be expecting a billion humanoid robots on earth in the 2040s and a hundred billion (mostly alien) robots throughout the solar system in the 2060s.”

Musk responded, “Probably something like that, provided the foundations of civilization are stable,” Fox Business reported.

Elon Musk’s company, Tesla, has developed a prototype humanoid robot, which the billionaire may see as a contributing factor to humanity reaching this ambitious prediction in the next two decades.
