That's just a random collection I found with a couple of quick google searches.
If you have actually watched for example the starbase tours with Elon, it's difficult to claim that he isn't "involved": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t705r8ICkRw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t705r8ICkRw
- bigmattystyles 4y agoI didn't mean to say he wasn't involved at all, just that imho (which doesn't matter) most of these companies would be fine without him. He is a savvy business player, knows how to grab available resources as well as the spotlight. I don't see anyone heralding Bezos or a few other CEOs I could name to this level and he's quite a bit more successful. Sidenote, all but a few of his twitter mentions of Shotwell are responses to mentions of her and it seems like he's injecting himself into the discussion.
- dwaltrip 4y agoBezos famously has been trying to build orbital rockets for two decades and hasn't yet succeeded. So there must be some difference between them on this point.
