Maybe it was just me but Musk has never seemed like someone who actually understood tech. Just a rich guy who buys up other's work and talks a big game. I knew the second I heard he bought Twitter it was going to crash and burn. He's doing it way faster than I thought possible.
Of course he will eventually say this was all on purposes and not that he is crap at business and tech.
It's not just you because it's the fact. I can confidentally say that Elon Musk knows no shit. He is just a lucky guy who happened to be born in a well-off family.
SpaceX, Tesla, etc, he didn't buils them with his knowledge like in case of Microsoft and Google, he just hire dev and I bet the only job he's doing is that posting in social media to trick people thinking he is a genius.
Truly, he's the Edison of our times.
Ah like the 100 year old hyperloop idea he invented and dropped because it was a stupid idea? (that musk fans still think he is working on for some reason)
I recently saw him referred to as a “divorced emerald mine inheritor” and I think that sums him his expertise perfectly.
Musk was considered the real life "iron man" due to all the futuristic projects he would start. I feel as if many were under the impression that he was this really smart guy working tirelessly to make all these insane ideas become a reality but the moment he stepped up and decided to buy twitter is when it all changed.
He announces to buy twitter, finds out twitter is bleeding out, decides not to buy twitter, to then realize he cant back out. Once he started taking the initiative to change twitter to make it more profitable is when everyone began to realize who musk really is.
I use to be one of those people interested in the next thing musk would do but now I rather not se another tweet from him.
Oh i think a LOT of people think he is off doing the engineering. Which is sad.
Musk was considered iron man because of the amount he spent on pr lol.
