Both amazing , who in your opinion is the way ahead and why ?
The one people would continue to talk about after 100 years.
Daddy Elon
They focused on different problems. Steve Jobs focused on enabling the masses through technology and great UX. Elon Musk focuses on more fundamental problems around the survival of masses. I’m impressed by both but more by Elon.
Jeff Bezos positively impacted more people’s lives than Elon. Amazon has saved humanity billions, if not trillions, of hours of productivity through deliveries. Tesla caters to, what, a few million people? A single nuclear plant can offset all the environmental benefits of Tesla. Japan has 39 nuclear plants. America has 32. Realistically, the Japanese prime minister(s) improved the environment more than Elon. SpaceX is cool but Russia/China, and to some extent NASA, already did the same thing as SpaceX. Then there’s the Boring Company and Neuralink which are just hype machines. No output (yet).
Let me guess.. this person own a lot of Amazon stocks :-)
Musk is way ahead
Linus Torvalds
Steve Jobs 100%. Musk takes awe-inspiring bets but he’s still a dickhead (I think some male tech bros seem to like that)
Steve Jobs come out an idea to put American/EU computer/internet technology, communication technology and Japanese batteries/semiconductor together and sell it to the world. Elon Musk come out two ideas, one to sell Japanese batteries and American/EU car technology to the world, another one is to sell weaker and cheaper versions of NASA rockets to the world. They were both PR genius digesting/refurbishing technologies developed before 1990s. There is very little originality, that’s why Chinese companies can do what they do from probably day 1. They have to justify their price by shifting to luxury market.
Elon Musk is objectively way ahead if you look to their contribution to our society. Even Bill Gates is ahead of Steve Jobs in term of impact.
Bill Gates come out something new that completely revolutionize your life. These two haven’t.
Agreed. I knew the microsoft anti trust case before but their decision to have pc as an open platform for all manufacturers have opened and made a lot of innovations possible these past few decades. Had they chose the same decision as Apple, it wont be as affordable to many people in the whole world.
Musk
