It is known that Elon Musk has characteristics of Aspergers Syndrome. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/innovations/wp/2015/04/03/why-shades-of-aspergers-syndrome-are-the-secret-to-building-a-great-tech-company/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/innovations/wp/2015/04/0...
- skue 11y agoBy whom? The Post link you provided didn't mention Musk, and it's an odd, poorly-organized article that conflates drivenness and social awkwardness with Aspergers, when they're not necessarily the same. People with Aspergers are more likely to be socially awkward, but not everyone who is socially awkward has Aspergers. This Post article even includes a story from the Isaacson bio about a young Steve Jobs (who didn't have Aspergers) disrupting a meeting for Seva, while omitting Jobs' emotional reaction and subsequent apology as soon as he left that meeting.
