Musk has a loose association with the truth.
He's been lying continuously about full self-driving: https://jalopnik.com/elon-musk-promises-full-self-driving-next-year-for-th-1848432496 https://jalopnik.com/elon-musk-promises-full-self-driving-ne...
5 years ago Tesla claimed to have the "hardware needed for full self-driving capability at a safety level substantially greater than that of a human driver". That was a lie: https://www.tesla.com/blog/all-tesla-cars-being-produced-now-have-full-self-driving-hardware https://www.tesla.com/blog/all-tesla-cars-being-produced-now...
Elon claimed Vernon Unsworth was a pedophile. That was a lie. Worse, Elon weakly tried to claim the term "pedo guy" doesn't mean "pedophile": https://www.wired.com/story/elon-musk-pedo-guy-doesnt-mean-pedophile/ https://www.wired.com/story/elon-musk-pedo-guy-doesnt-mean-p...
Elon continues to lie about founding Tesla: https://www.tesla.com/elon-musk https://www.tesla.com/elon-musk
Elon wasn't a founder of Tesla: https://www.cnbc.com/2021/02/06/tesla-founders-martin-eberhard-marc-tarpenning-on-elon-musk.html https://www.cnbc.com/2021/02/06/tesla-founders-martin-eberha...
In a recent sycophantic interview Musk pathetically tried to redefine the term "founder" to mean someone essential to the company: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHmSrK238vI&t=2358s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHmSrK238vI&t=2358s
It's sad that he can't even be honest about simple factual matters.
