Saudi Arabia Says YES to Starlink and Tesla Robotaxis (and I'm Just Thinking About My Next Album)

A Kingdom a Crown Prince and a Whole Lotta Tech

Okay so like everyone's buzzing about Elon Musk heading to Saudi Arabia and getting the royal stamp of approval for Starlink. It's giving 'Love Story' vibes but with satellites instead of stolen glances. Apparently the kingdom has said 'yes' to Starlink for aviation and maritime use. I'm picturing it now: yachts cruising the Red Sea with flawless WiFi. The future is now and it's all very 'Out of the Woods' (but hopefully not literally).

Robotaxis? Are We in a Music Video?

But wait there's more! Robotaxis! Elon's also promising to bring Tesla's self driving taxis to Saudi Arabia. Is this real life or is this just a very expensive high tech music video concept? I mean imagine cruising through Riyadh in a robotaxi while listening to 'Style'. It's almost too much fabulousness to handle. I wonder if they'll have a 'Reputation' mode where the car only plays my edgy tracks.

Optimus Prime (Rib) and Handshakes

And hold on to your cowboy hats because Elon even showed off Tesla's Optimus humanoid robots to both Trump and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Optimus? Sounds like a 'Blank Space' waiting to be filled with some serious coding. I can’t wait to see these robots dancing to 'Shake It Off'. Maybe they can be backup dancers on my next tour? A girl can dream.

Chips and Deals: It's a Love Story (For Geeks)

Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang is also in the mix selling a mountain of AI chips to some Saudi Arabian company. Everyone's getting a piece of the pie! Trump is securing deals left and right making it rain with a $600 billion investment commitment. It's all very 'The Man' if you ask me (but in a business y less feminist anthem y way maybe?).

Deep Pockets and Government Efficiency (Whatever That Means)

Of course let’s not forget that Saudi Arabia's Kingdom Holding Company has a stake in Elon's xAI. Senate Democrats were raising eyebrows citing 'national security concerns.' As if my lyrics aren't enough to worry about! I mean is it a Cruel Summer? A State of Grace? Or something else entirely? It's all very mysterious and I'm just over here trying to write a catchy chorus.

All Too Well? (Hopefully Not)

So what's the takeaway? Tech is booming in Saudi Arabia Elon's got his hands in everything and Trump is well being Trump. Meanwhile I'm just here a girl with a guitar trying to figure out if I should write a song about robotaxis or stick to heartbreak and glitter. Only time will tell folks. Only time will tell. But I've learned time moves in mysterious ways. And it's never too late or too early for my next album.
