The Spin

While Musk is an expert at building rockets and somewhat good at promoting free speech, the AI industry is not his forte. To succeed in the AI race, you must first understand the potential of the technology, which Musk clearly doesn't given he thinks AGI will be created by next year. The billionaire will also work his employees to death to achieve these unrealistic goals, which is why his hiring offer will fall on deaf ears.

Critics of Musk's AI endeavors clearly haven't seen his diverse record of success in the technology sector. In a unique fashion, Musk uses his several companies to complement each other, as shown by his SpaceX employees working with the Boring Company to build tunnels. Now, he's tapping into the rich information source of his social media company X to build AI that tries to understand and help humanity rather than control it.
