This is actually hilarious. Bernie Sanders, of all people, is questioning "where will all that money come from?" Hah! At least Elon's point makes economic sense - increased productivity and efficiency offsets increased money supply and inflation (though I do not agree that AI will continually be that ridiculously productive). Sanders finally agrees that money cannot infinitely be passed out in printed government checks and still hold value.
