Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk plans to use Tesla Cybertrucks and Starlink technology to provide free internet to areas devastated by forest fires in California.

Musk, who is the CEO of Tesla and Starlink, wrote in a post on X, another of his companies, that Cybertruck deliveries will be delayed for the next few days.

“Apologies to those expecting Cybertruck deliveries in California over the next few days,” he wrote. “We need to use these trucks as mobile base stations to provide power to Starlink Internet terminals in areas of LA without connectivity. A new truck will be delivered by the end of the week.”

In another post, Musk said Cybertrucks equipped with Starlink and free internet would be placed in a grid pattern in areas most in need of the technology, throughout Greater Los Angeles and Malibu.

Musk also said that security personnel will be added to the Cybertrucks, along with snacks and drinks for people who ride by.

The move comes three days after Musk announced that he will provide free Starlink terminals to areas of Los Angeles.

He made the announcement when he retweeted footage of a reporter attesting to the connectivity of the Starlink Internet service.

The reporter said that Starlink “is the only reason we can hear and communicate with you at this time, because there is absolutely no cell service in this entire area.”

On Sunday morning, billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman wrote in a post on X that putting out fires before they spread didn’t seem like a “serious technological challenge” to overcome with the help of companies like SpaceX, xAI and Anduril Industries, a defense company specializing in autonomous systems, unmanned aerial systems and unmanned aerial systems started by Palmer Luckey.

“So (Elon Musk) and (Palmer Luckey), why don’t we start a company that uses satellites, artificial intelligence and drone technology to put out fires before they spread?” Ackman asked in the post. “One can imagine satellite surveillance, rapid drone investigation and drone swarm water delivery. The number of drones sent to extinguish the fire and the nature of the extinguishing agent (water, foam, dry or wet chemicals, etc.) would be a function of the The nature and scale of the fire would not put human life at risk and there is no risk of DEI’s involvement in drone selection good for real estate values ​​in California.”

Despite Musk’s efforts to help, one user wrote to X: “California hates you and Trump,” which the SpaceX CEO acknowledged was true.

“That’s true of some people in California, and the press, of course, will accuse me of being out of touch, but if it helps save even one house or maybe even someone’s life, I still we should,” Musk replied.

But another user asked how he could donate his Cybertruck to help with the efforts.

“Roll your truck through the devastated areas with a Starlink terminal on the roof and open WiFi,” Musk said.

Musk has claimed that the wildfires in the Golden State could have been prevented, but that regulations prevent taking steps to prevent the infernos.

“These fires are easily preventable, but absurd regulations in California prevent action from being taken, so every year more homes burn and more people die,” Musk wrote in a post on X.
