Too much Elon Musk. He's beginning to exhibit signs of a cult of personality. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cult_of_personality
Wait, we can print TITANIUM? Up until now, I thought 3D printing only involved plastics...
3D modeling, not 3D printing.
So which one is the novel contribution here? I get that he is combining a bunch of EXISTING technologies, but does he need to be in the video? Are his motives just to show off the technology HE invented or just a way to publicize his company and his name? I have seen many projects where they control objects in the computer with hand motion (and even gesture) like this.
I'm sick of people worshiping folks like him or Jobs for no apparent reason. I get that he's risk-averse and is willing to put his money into innovative ideas, but it's not like they're all coming out from Musk.

Someone's insecurity is showing; might wanna hide it buddy
I'm not exactly a Musk fan boy, but it's clear he's just showing off a setup that they're working on over there. He says in the video, in case you're hard of hearing, that they put together existing technology to experiment with this UI. I didn't here him even insinuate that they're inventing it let a lone claim it.
Your mal-a-tete with people like Jobs and Musk isn't that they're taking all the credit - can't say the same for Jobs, but Musk seems to big up his team whenever he can. Your problem is that they demonstrate that the engineering isn't everything. At the end of the day you still have to attract people and people don't just drop their panties at the sight of new tech without the nuances of good presentation. Rather than PMS on hacker news, may I suggest some life coaching, sir?

Sure, he has an interest in self-promotion, positioning Space-X as a cool company etc. But maybe, just maybe, they built something just because it's cool, and they're sharing it because it's awesome!
If you had built something like that, wouldn't you tell people about it? If some random hacker had posted this to Show HN, wouldn't we be showering him with praise?
