One thing we know about Musk. He's a big fan of punishment.
The billionaire says his Boring Company tunnel-drilling venture is attempting to build a working Hyperloop in the coming years.
It has been quite a while since Musk talked about the Hyperloop, a transportation system that would shoot passengers through narrow tubes.
While companies like Virgin have made some progress on building early prototypes and figuring out what the passenger experience could look like, Musk has been noticeably quiet on the idea, despite being one of its earliest advocates.
It is the fastest way to get from one city center to another for less than 2000 miles.
The Boring Company is working on tunnels that will allow cars to carry passengers at the same time. The Las Vegas Convention Center has two ends.
It sounds like the Hyperloop could be headed underground, where they would be immune to surface weather conditions.
It wouldn't matter if a storm was raging on the surface.
Going from four-wheeled vehicles to futuristic Pods is a huge step.
It is incredibly difficult to bring a futuristic transportation system to reality from both an engineering and financing perspective. In February, the company axed half of its staff to focus on transporting cargo.
The Boring Company is doubling down on digging other tunnels across the country, which is likely going to resemble the one in Las Vegas more than Musk's new vision.
Musk said that the dream is still alive.
The Boring Company is taking on a hyperloop project.
There are more details on the board of Twitter and the improvements that will be made.
