"Kojima wrote in his book The Creative Gene that if he could have just one wish granted to him in life, it would be to go to space. He said he doesn't need to go to the moon or Mars; a 'brief orbit' beyond Earth's atmosphere would suffice, he said. 'I would give up anything to make that wish come true: my current place as a game designer, which I've built up for forty-five years; I'm even prepared to throw away my family or my own life. That is how powerfully I--or rather we--yearn for the cosmos.'"
"Musk said to Newell in the 2018 email that his involvement with OpenAI at the time was 'very limited,' saying he continued to provide 'some financial support' and had verbal and email updates with Altman every few weeks. 'I lost confidence that OpenAI could muster the resources to serve as an effective counterweight to Google / Deepmind and decided to attempt that through Tesla instead,' he said."
Gabe Newell reached out to Elon Musk in 2018 to facilitate a SpaceX tour for Hideo Kojima, who has a strong desire to go to space. Musk agreed to the tour, but it remains unclear if Kojima visited. Kojima expressed in his book that going to space is his ultimate wish, even willing to sacrifice his career and personal life for it. The emails also touched on AI, with Newell noting Kojima's belief in its future role in work, while Musk shared his limited involvement with OpenAI.
