There’s no interesting comparison to be made, really. Both are rich CEOs, I guess. That’s it.

- bink 4y agoI think some people are drawn to this video because they want others to think that Jobs made big changes that were painful and he was very successful, therefore when Musk makes big changes that are painful he will also be successful. I disagree and think the similarities are only superficial, but I can see why some might think that.
- nequo 4y agoI also disagree with this. This implicitly assumes that anyone who makes big changes that are painful will be successful. But this is manifestly untrue. A big difference in what Jobs did and what Musk is doing is that Musk has fired people at Twitter pretty much indiscriminately. Jobs had a clear idea for a working product line. He brought NeXTSTEP with him to Apple, along with NeXT engineers. And he kept those teams that worked in critical areas.

- the_cat_kittles 4y agoi think elon has tried to emulate the superficial aspects of steve jobs presentation style, albeit very unconvincingly
- tambourine_man 4y agoHe can hardly finish a sentence. Jobs was a master presenter. Good luck for him.
