Musk talks about that in the article:
> “I have to say at times I’ve wondered,” Musk said with a laugh. “...I think there are certain important things that we must do in order for the future to be good."
If he doesn't do it, who will?

- scott_karana 11y ago> If he doesn't do it, who will? I love this myth of the one-man army. Really, it's idolatry of single points of failure. Who would knowingly design infrastructure in the same way that these "hero CEOs" position themselves? SpaceX and Tesla employee 16,000 total humans, and talented ones at that. Does every single day really require Musk's visionary direction? Nobody else's will do?
- scott_karana 11y agoAnd just like single points of failure in infrastructure, single points of executive failure can be good for startups. You can leverage your risk, and accomplish more in the short term, but long term, it's clearly not sustainable. Sounds like Musk needs to learn how to pivot into "big corporate". I don't think he ever has in the past, has he?
