Twitter looks chaotic right now. But to see his actual impact we'll have to wait for a few years.

  He's been selling the Tesla crowd on "wait a few years" as well when it comes to FSD.

    But this time, it's not wait a few years for something to maybe happen, but wait a few years to see how Twitters numbers develop. If Twitter has a quarter of the market share in 2 years we can say that yes, Elon failed, but right now it's hard to judge.

      How would you define market share? Elon has also been trying to upsell Twitter numbers, so that doesn't generate a lot of confidence.

    I mean... FSD has rolled out to every vehicle in North America that bought the feature. It's definitely not perfect, but it's getting better every update. Yes the timelines have been much longer than Musk claimed, but you can watch tons of YouTube videos of the cars driving themselves. Failure seems to be less and less likely as time goes on.

  Well if you're impatient like me you'll be happy to know that once they miss the first $1.5 billion interest payment they'll either default, or he'll have to sell off massive chunks of Tesla shares or stake in Spacex, potentially blowing up multiple companies in the process. So it might take a singular year or less to see how it goes.

  Twitter won't be around that long
