No yeah that's exactly the problem. Because it's musk, we can be confident it is just bullshit and won't result in any meaningful innovation. It's just torturing monkeys for shits and gigs.

How can you say that? I get you hate musk and I'm no fanboy either but he objectively has been involved in projects that have been pretty innovative. Tesla put EV's on the map, especially with their charging infra. Spacex literally launches shit into space. Musk is not involved in 99.9% of the work that goes into these things.

But no, Musk personally is just torturing monkeys for shits and gigs. because he's evil, that's what reddit told me and i'm sticking to it.
