Amazon founder Jeff Bezos says rapid advances in artificial intelligence, robotics, and space technology could enable millions of people to live in space by 2045. Speaking at Italian Tech Week, he frames space living as a realistic prospect within the next two decades, alongside growing capabilities in robotics and automation.
Bezos also predicts that robots will take over many tasks on the Moon and in other space environments, describing them as performing everyday work while humans focus on living and operating beyond Earth. The outlets largely focus on his timeline for space residence and his use of robotics to make operations on the Moon more efficient.
Across the reports, the central angle is Bezos’s outlook rather than new technical announcements or policy actions. The coverage presents his statements as a forward-looking vision tied to ongoing progress in AI and space systems, with varying emphasis on the idea of robots “doing the commute” or handling work duties on the Moon.
