Musk may intervene, suggesting Trump adopt a more lenient alternative to Biden administration's AI executive order
According to Fortune magazine, with the dust settling on the U.S. election results, Musk's support for Trump, seen by outsiders as a high-stakes gamble, has yielded obvious immediate returns. It is reported that Musk may try to lobby Trump to abandon his opposition to Biden administration's policy of tax credits for electric vehicles and encourage the purchase of electric cars. After Trump delivered his victory speech, Tesla's stock price soared significantly. Investors expect that the Trump administration will stop federal investigations and law enforcement actions against Tesla, especially those related to its autonomous driving software.
In addition, relations between the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and SpaceX are very tense. In September, Musk asked FAA Administrator Michael Huerta to resign because SpaceX was fined $630,000 for violating rocket launch regulations. Musk stated that he plans under the Trump administration to establish a Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), whose work plan includes relaxing regulation on its rocket launches. Trump himself also suggested using Starlink satellite services as part of a future government investment plan worth $42 billion in broadband infrastructure aimed at providing internet connectivity in rural areas - a potential financial boon for Starlink.
