I think that a lot of people also don't have to directly work with him, and there are a lot of assholes running companies. That being said, Musk's behavior personally turned me off from all of his companies' products, despite maybe 5 years ago thinking "if I ever buy a car, it'll be a Tesla"
I don't get this reference, how does a person like that act in uni?
Someone who ends up getting something done, but in the most chaotic manner possible and with loads of unforced errors because they are not absorbing information from their peers.
Twitter on the other hand... "Oh I work at twitter doing software". That's.... nowhere near as exciting or epic a thing to tell people that you do.
So he might have a harder time finding smart people willing to work for less than market rates at twitter compared to finding them for SpaceX and Tesla
Imagine a new form of news and communication that solves all of our social woes, allows people to be informed, and have constructive discourse.
That would be world changing.
I'm not saying Twitter could ever be that. But maybe someone else could be convinced it is possible.
Twitter has been too complacent in the market of communication apps. By all reports, including from Elon himself, big changes are on the way.
