Obviously he is wildly optimist About timelines, but you can’t deny SpaceX have done incredible things that literally every expert said was impossible.

I still like his quote “SpaceX makes the impossible merely late”

Fully self driving cars and people on Mars will happen. And I feel pretty certain Tesla and SpaceX will be at least a bit responsible for pushing it to happen faster than if they didn’t exist.

Of course they are not perfect, but on the whole I think we’re better off because they exist.

10 years of lies is not optimism. It's just lies:

Then he can refund the cost to every Tesla owner with interest, and let his optimism carry him to great profits once the tech is actually finished. Surely he can do that, if actually believes what he is saying and wasn't just doing an impossible cash grab with tech that would never be capable of doing what he promised.
