Tech billionaire Elon Musk has once again made headlines by welcoming his 14th child, a son named Seldon Lycurgus, with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis. The news was shared by Zilis on X, where she revealed that they decided to announce it in honor of their daughter Arcadia’s birthday. While no specific birth date was disclosed, Zilis described Seldon as “built like a juggernaut, with a solid heart of gold.” This marks her fourth child with Musk, following the birth of their previous three children together.
The announcement comes shortly after reports emerged that conservative influencer Ashley St Clair has also recently had a child with the Tesla and SpaceX CEO. Musk has long been vocal about his stance on population growth, frequently emphasizing the importance of increasing birth rates to prevent what he sees as a potential demographic crisis in the future. He has repeatedly argued that declining birth rates could pose a serious threat to human civilization, making his growing family a personal reflection of his larger ideology.
Musk’s perspective on family aligns with his broader vision for humanity’s future. As the leader of multiple groundbreaking companies, including Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink, and The Boring Company, he has consistently advocated for technological advancements that push the boundaries of human potential. His belief in the necessity of expanding human civilization beyond Earth, particularly through colonization of Mars, further emphasizes the need for a growing and thriving population.

Despite his demanding professional life, Musk has expressed a strong commitment to fatherhood. He has previously stated that he enjoys spending time with his children and encourages their curiosity and interest in science and technology. His unconventional approach to parenting reflects his broader philosophy—teaching his children to think critically, solve problems, and explore new frontiers just as he does in his businesses.
