The prospectus detailed the voting power given to the company’s seven founders at the expense of would-be investors. Copyright ©2026 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

特斯拉“飞天跑车”Roadster对全球汽车业竞争意味着什么？
马斯克对新款特斯拉Roadster跑车的最新愿景，与其说关乎冷气体火箭推进器，不如说更关乎中国。 新款特斯拉(Tesla) Roadster堪称一场视觉奇观。 它的设计让这款跑车看上去像是喷气式战斗机与兰博基尼(Lamborghini)的结合体。吸附系统让它能倒挂在离地69英尺的地方。而最突出的功能，是冷气体火箭推进器，能让这辆车跃过一排汽车，同时在空中完成一次桶滚动作。 Copyright ©2026 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved. 87990cbe856818d5eddac44c7b1cdeb8 立即订阅 热门文章 热门视频
テスラ「空飛ぶロードスター」が意味する自動車市場の行方
テスラの新型「ロードスター」はまさに見せ物だった。 戦闘機とランボルギーニを掛け合わせたような外観のデザイン。地上69フィート（約21メートル）の高さで逆さまにぶら下がることを可能にする吸着システム。そして何と言っても特徴的なのは、冷ガスロケット推進装置で、空中でバレルロール（一回転）をしながら一列に並んだ車両を飛び越えたことだ。 Copyright ©2026 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved. 87990cbe856818d5eddac44c7b1cdeb8

What Tesla’s Flying Roadster Really Means for the Global Auto Race
Elon Musk’s latest vision for the company’s sports car has more to do with China than cold-gas rocket thrusters There was the design that gave the sports car an appearance of a jet fighter crossed with a Lamborghini. A suction system that enabled it to hang upside down 69 feet above the ground. And, the defining feature, cold-gas rocket thrusters that jumped the car over a line of vehicles while doing a midair barrel roll. Copyright ©2026 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

AI has a God problem stretching from the Vatican to the Baptist pulpit
Pastor Joseph Hutchinson began a recent Sunday sermon by pointing to the Book of Revelation, the final part of the New Testament best known for apocalyptic prophecy. And he quickly argued for how artificial intelligence will fit into end times. “AI wants to be God,” the pastor warned those at Gospel Light Baptist Church in Orangeburg, S.C. The sermon, the 74-year-old later told me, was inspired by the questions he was getting from the congregation, which numbers around 150.
AI Has a God Problem Stretching From the Vatican to the Baptist Pulpit
Now As Anthropic explores the possibility of conscious AI, philosophers and religious thinkers are wrestling with a fundamental question: Can a machine truly understand right and wrong, or merely learn to sound like it does? Pope Leo XIV and one of the world’s leading AI companies recently found …

韓国・現代自が新型の有人運転車を多数計画する一方、テスラはハンドルから手を離しつつある 10月1日には、米電気自動車（EV）大手テスラにとって最後の新型有人運転車になるかもしれないモデルが、ついに披露されるはずだった。しかし、約10年前に登場した「ロードスター」の新型車の発表は、またしても延期された。今回はテキサスの悪天候が理由だった。 この日、そこから北東に約2600キロメートル以上離れたニューヨーク市では、太陽が輝いていた。そこでは韓国の現代自動車が、スポーツタイプ多目的車（SUV）「ツーソン」の新型モデルを華々しく発表した。同社が2030年までに世界で計画している100車種以上の新型・改良モデルの一つだ。 Copyright ©2026 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.

Anthropic’s Moral Conflict Is Playing Out in Real Time
Dario Amodei co-founded Anthropic after leaving OpenAI. Don Feria/AP for Anthropic Sept. 13, 2026 5:30 am ET Dario Amodei built Anthropic to avoid this very kind of moment. In a stunning essay Saturday, the chief executive of one of the leading AI companies echoed many of the doomsday warnings—from current and recent employees—that sparked panic across the nation this past week.
データセンター反対論者は「社会主義の手先」か？
人工知能（AI）のデータセンターに反対するなら、痛い目を見るのはあなたのほうだ。 それがシリコンバレーのテクノロジー関係者が発しているメッセージであり、トランプ政権も次第に同様の主張をするようになっている。 Copyright ©2026 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved. 87990cbe856818d5eddac44c7b1cdeb8
对数据中心不满？科技巨头和特朗普认为你已被社会主义洗脑
如果你反对人工智能(AI)数据中心，那你可就成了笑柄。这是硅谷释放出的信息，特朗普(Trump)政府也日益明确表明这一立场。 数周以来，科技领袖们一直暗示，美国反对AI的民粹主义运动背后其实有外国势力、甚至可能是社会主义者在作祟，尤其是中国。 Copyright ©2026 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved. 87990cbe856818d5eddac44c7b1cdeb8
Upset About Data Centers? Big Tech and Trump Think You’re a Socialist Dupe
China is being blamed for stoking the grassroots revolt against AI in the U.S. Attendees at a recent Trump rally in Michigan showed opposition to data centers. Sarah Rice/Bloomberg News If you’re against AI data centers, the joke’s on you. That’s the message from Silicon Valley and, increasingly, the Trump administration. For weeks, tech leaders have suggested foreign powers—maybe even socialists—are really behind the U.S. populist movement against artificial intelligence. In particular, China.

科技巨头如何对民间AI抵制潮视而不见
硅谷的传统套路在人工智能(AI)领域正在失灵。 过去两周的乱象再次表明，围绕AI的局面越是混乱，许多科技领袖就越显得脱离群众。这意味着，即使Anthropic和OpenAI的首次公开募股(IPO)能达到华尔街的极高预期，这些公司也将长期面临政治和监管方面的棘手难题。对于新兴行业而言，这种风险极高的困境实属罕见。 Copyright ©2026 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved. 87990cbe856818d5eddac44c7b1cdeb8
How Big Tech Blinded Itself to the Grassroots AI Revolt
The Silicon Valley playbook is failing AI. And the messier things around artificial intelligence become, as they did again in the past two weeks, the more out of touch many tech leaders appear. That suggests that even if Anthropic and OpenAI IPOs live up to Wall Street’s lofty expectations, these companies will be long dealing with risky political and regulatory headaches atypical for nascent industries.
米国で広がる「機械破壊運動」 AIがもたらす未来への問い
さながら「ラッダイトの暑い夏」だ（訳注：ラッダイトは産業革命期の英国で起きた機械破壊運動）。 米国民はシリコンバレーが描く未来像に失望し、車両ナンバーを自動認識するフロックカメラやデータセンターが、各地で「ペルソナ・ノン・グラータ（好ましからざる存在）」と化した。これらは多くの点で、実体のない技術である人工知能（AI）を物理的に体現しており、大きな夢と新たな悪夢をかき立てている。 Copyright ©2026 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved. 87990cbe856818d5eddac44c7b1cdeb8
Burroughs tennis opens season with home win
The Lady Burros tennis team began their 2026 season with a non-league match against the Eagles from Lancaster High School. At the end of the first round the score was tied 3-3, with Lancaster sweeping the singles and Burroughs sweeping the doubles. In the second round, the Burros won two doubles and one singles and the Eagles won two singles and one doubles, resulting in a tied 6-6 match.
The Summer That America Became a Nation of Luddites
Protesters in Troy, N.Y., rally against the use of Flock cameras. Jim Franco/Times Union via Getty Images It’s Hot Luddite Summer. As the mood of the nation sours on Silicon Valley’s vision for the future, Flock cameras and data centers have become personae non grata in several communities. In many ways, they are physical manifestations of artificial intelligence—an incorporeal technology—that’s fueling both big dreams and new nightmares.

市場のAI熱狂、厳しい政治の現実に直面
人工知能（AI）分野のトップランナーである米アンソロピックはこの秋、新規株式公開（IPO）への期待と選挙への悪影響を懸念する声という相いれない二つの思惑の間で、奇妙なジレンマに直面することになる。 設立5年目となった同社は、企業価値を1兆ドル（約160兆円）近くに押し上げた非公開の資金調達ラウンドを終え、株式公開への期待は膨らむばかりだ。今月、史上最大規模の上場を果たした米宇宙開発企業スペースXの目覚ましい成功も、主に同社のAIビジネスへの期待が原動力となった。 Copyright ©2026 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.

The Messy Reality of Building an Empire in Space

Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk each had his own difficulties this past week in their renewed rivalry over outer space. These underscored just how challenging their sci-fi dreams will be to make real. For Bezos, merely getting off this planet remains one of his biggest challenges—evident by the Blue Origin rocket’s spectacular explosion on the launchpad Thursday evening. For Musk, the tension was more nuanced.
