My point is that it's arguably not a 'tantrum,' it's actually a strategically worded statement designed for maximum damage to Apple's business. The man isn't actually stupid. Musk is desperately trying to carve out space for his personal brand in AI, and to do that he needs to drag down major players like Apple. I think there's a strong case to be made that that's exactly what his move was. If he gets serious blowback he can try to claim 'free speech,' but weaponizing speech for malicious purposes/personal gain has never been a protected activity.

> My point is that it's arguably not a 'tantrum,' it's actually a strategically worded statement designed for maximum damage to Apple's business. I think so, too. > The man isn't actually stupid. I'm not sold on that idea. The character has a long track record of doing stupid and easily avoidable things, specially out of impulse. > Musk is desperately trying to carve out space for his personal brand in AI, and to do that he needs to drag down major players like Apple. I don't think he has anything to show regarding PR. His modus operandi is taking over other people's work and pass himself off as a pioneer. Hence his despair to hijack OpenAI,and his tantrum when he was denied that.
