Business magnate Elon Musk recently tweeted that he was getting tired of sitting in traffic and that he was going to start a tunnel boring company, leaving many confused and uncertain if he was joking or not. According to his follow-up tweets, Musk is absolutely serious about his plan, in turn revealing the new company’s name and slogan, even going so far as to update his Twitter bio which now reads: “Tesla, SpaceX, Tunnels (yes, tunnels) & OpenAI.” We still don’t know for certain if Musk was joking, but given Musk’s unique sense of humor, we won’t rule out the possibility. Stay tuned for more details as they become available.
