How is he less relevant than Elon Musk?

He co-founded linkedin a platform every one knows.

Elon Musk invented the Cybertruck and has a weird cult following through Tesla.

i mean Elon Musk called some of his kids this:

X Æ A-Xii Musk, Exa Dark Sideræl Musk and Techno Mechanicus Musk

What opinion should i give more value?

 help



If you are going to include a speaker's child-naming prowess as a factor in assigning value to an opinion, you might as well just flip a coin, go with vibes, go with the one that matches your biases, or all three.

When I was a child my brother taught me to always consider the incentives, especially the monetary ones, of a speaker. 'Follow the money'. So, in this case neither Musk nor Hoffman would get much traction with me as both of them are incentivized to form a pro or con opinion of xAI.


It shows longterm persistency and character or in case of Elon Musk the opposite.

Together with all his wins and fails, it clearly shows that Elon Musk not an genius but more lucky opportunist. For sure not an idiot of course.

Follow the money is for sure a good point though


>He co-founded linkedin

That alone should be justifiable cause for exile from society.


I think its fun. Whenever i log into it on a friday and a recruiter writes me, i tell them my dream salary and to 99% they are polite, say sorry for their 'low offer' and tell me they will get back when they have something like it.

And if they ever send me something interesting, i still could apply.
