I originally bought Tesla shares back in 2018 because Elon Musk was making a lot of sense and traditional car makers seemed blind to the obvious transition away from oil. I was also optimistic about their AI vision and the fact he got Andrej Karpathy to join made me very optimistic.
But lately, Elon Musk seems to be an idiot. It’s not about approving/disproving. The dude just lost his mind and that won’t be good for the company.
Karpathy also left. You don’t leave the company with the most cameras on the road if your whole schtick is computer vision and AI.
To be fair, he might just be hopping on the generative AI bandwagon.
But I’m sure that if Elon still had a sound mind, he would have found a way to keep Karpathy in the Tesla fold.
Fuck it, I’ll go one step further. Elon Musk used to be an OpenAI board member alongside Sam Altman. In 2022, Elon Musk was the richest man in the world. Unless he is an idiot and treated Sam Altman badly, I am sure Sam Altman must have chatted with him in 2022 (or earlier) to tell about how awesome ChatGPT was going to be. Like, if your former colleague is the richest man in the world, you give that guy a call, right?
So how the hell did he spend $40B on fucking Twitter when Microsoft bought OpenAI for $10B?
How did he not end up owning a significant chunk of OpenAI?
I seriously think he lost his mind.
Disapproval is the wrong word. It’s a loss of trust in his ability to execute.
I more or less agree. I could not have done a bigger 180 on this guy. He was my hope for a better future and now he’s one of the biggest reasons for the world becoming a much worse place IMO.

Wow. That’s something I hadn’t really considered - very good point. As an innovator myself, you can bet your butt that I would be telling the richest man on the planet what advances had been made with the software…
Las Vegas loop, instead of a tunnel you drive in or a subway, he took the worst parts of both and made something worse. The whole is worse than the sum of its parts

It legit bums me out.
180 is 180. Anything more and it would be 181.

Lately…?

Elon’s mental health clearly didn’t survive COVID.
