> You couldn't invent a more polar opposite of Steve Jobs than Elon Musk.

Jobs would start off describing a common problem before unveiling the product which inevitably solves said problem. This often brought cheers that felt genuine.

Musk simply shows something bizarre and talks about how they made it, never how it solves your problems (other than a desire for the latest tech). edit Regarding the transition to EV vehicles, that's what Musk always says about new models, it's not a new thing.

Didn't he start by saying the trucks in this category are number 1 sellers and to move everyone to sustainable energy, trucks need to go electric?

He is wrong, the market won't solve this problem. We need mass transit, not more cars EV or not.

Sorry, I meant to say the market will solve this problem. We don't need mass transit, we need more EV cars. Everyone should have a 7 ton steel EV to carry all the stuff they buy in the abundant future we have before us.

Lol it's absurd to say the cheers didn't feel genuine. The crowd was insanely hype about this.
