A new assessment determined that X, the platform once known as Twitter, is worth a mere fraction of the value it had when Elon Musk bought it for $44 billion.
From what I can tell, he has some level of technical competence, more in engineering than in software, and basically not at all with people. I’m not sure if he has a neurodivergence in the area that prevents him from acquiring an understanding of people, or if he basically regards other humans as objects to be shifted around in bulk, and thus not worth considering, but his career demonstrates both him fucking up socially, and him being played by people who want something from him.
He does not have any level of technical competence.
He understands cars or rockets the way a kid who is really into models does: he can tell you dimensions, horsepower, or payload capacity. He can’t apply any of that knowledge - they’re just memorized stats to him. When you get him talking about what those stats mean, he makes stuff the fuck up based on the reaction of the room. He’s getting sued for it right now… Again
He tries to make it sound like he’s this flawed genius with a grand plan to save humanity, but he’s just a billionaire who loves collecting futuristic looking toys to brag about
