        They would stop taking absurd risks for sure, which would result in lower rewards but overall a bit better still. No more industry-changing projects though.

          Which ones? The electric cars her hasn’t improved on for 10 years, the drilling machine that nobody uses, the flamethrower, the social media company he murdered, it the government divisions he burned to ground? So innovative.

            Starlink, rockets that operate like airliners, and there just might eventually come something out of neuralink and FSD some day. Also, how many companies in the US aims to build humanoid robots at scale? To me it looks like in many fields the situation is China vs elon, unfortunately.

          We actually don’t know if that would happen. for all we know they could replace him with RFK Jr and take 10x more risk than elon, which would mean even bigger rewards !!!
