Thoughts

my opinions on the first public trilliionare

  • extraordinarily capable, on steve job's level in terms of entrepreneurship
  • his stress and behaviors is becoming all the more understandable as im no longer an observer of startups
  • he builds real startups. tesla is the most technically relatable one. not so sure about spacex since it's at max an implementation of newton era physics (aka propulsion). to become type 3 we need better theories on the books than just rockets.
  • he failed at the ai race. that's ok. no one is perfect. kinda forgetful that he cofounded openai lol.
