Elon Musk argues agentic internet traffic already exceeds human traffic, calling Cloudflare's prediction of 1000x human traffic within five years an underestimate since every AI agent needs bandwidth and communications infrastructure. He also responded to Ron Baron's $1T revenue / $14-15T valuation model for Starlink, saying revenue doubling yearly at scale is now routine: "super intelligence makes that look slow!"
