Elon Musk appears to always think crazy big. This seems crazy small?
Doesn't it seem that if you want serious teams / companies putting serious people on this for 4 years you need the prize to be $1 billion+?
Google had 100's of highly paid engineers working on virtual reality for a few years. Amazon had/has 100's working on Alexa. That's 100's of millions per year in each case. To incentivize several teams of 10's or 100's of really solid engineers, there has to be a pretty crazy high payoff given the chances of failure.
Elon how about a prize of $1 billion in Tesla stock?
