People can simultaeneously be reprehensible idiots while being a reliable expert on something they have personally invested billions of dollars into and operate at scale.

He's also invested billions of dollars in SpaceX and Tesla... which he regularly makes wild claims about that are untrue.

I'm not saying he actually is an expert, but he could be an expert and still lie for any number of reasons.

Elon is a specialist of lying about stuff he invested billions in to make it look more valuable than it is (he's been doing that for Tesla for years). It's not a lack of expertise, it's the lack of any sense of integrity (and self respect).

He's lagging the AI race despite having tons of compute available, so he tries to make a narrative about how it's not that the model is behind, it's just smaller than the competition.
