By any standard that you would apply to gauge intelligence based on someone's accomplishments and actions, he would qualify as highly intelligent as applied in the business domain, and I sincerely believe that denying that fact is engaging in willful, ideologically driven blindness.
- blitzar 1y ago> intelligence based on someone's accomplishments and actions I think it goes without saying he has done a whole bunch of 5 iq stuff as well.
- javier123454321 1y agoSmart people do stupid stuff. People incapable of processing large amounts of information don't operate highly successful companies in multiple domains simultaneously that expand the edge of technological innovation in distinct fields.
- blitzar 1y agoStupid people do smart stuff sometimes too. I think it goes without saying that Elon doesnt operate any of his highly successful companies on a daily basis.

I'm sorry, if you think that a person that is 'dumb' can run these companies to the level that they're at I simply do not respect your opinion and do suggest you to do some introspection why you cannot cede that someone that has achieved what he has in a way that is consistent and replicable in a multivariable and complex domain such as business is a competent and intelligent person. Sure, there are other things you can detract and criticize him for, but this one seems like a weird one given the evidence.
- blitzar 1y agoBy any standard that you would apply to gauge intelligence based on someone's accomplishments and actions, Kim Kardashian would qualify as highly intelligent. If you cannot cede that she has one of the greatest intelligences of our generation, possibly even of all time, then I simply do not respect your opinion and do suggest you do some introspection.
- javier123454321 1y agoFunny enough, while I criticize the cultural impact she and her family have had on young girls as related to body image, I think there is evidence that they are intelligent as in having a capacity to process information. Nowhere near Musk, but you are not actually trying to have that discussion.
