I used to admired Elon because of all he was doing for electric vehicles and space exploration. But the last 3-4 years I've grown to really dislike the guy, and I think part of it is just that, his inflated ego.
He knows how to run a business, and he knows that telling all these companies to F off, pretty much, will hurt not only twitter/X but Tesla and Space X as well, just because they are an extension of him. Honestly, I think he plateaued when it comes to electric vehicles (he might improve battery, but not sure there is much he can do to move the needle anymore). As for Space exploration, he still has a lot he wants to do, and I think he will continue to improve on that end mainly because of NASA.
