Yeah this is one of those things where you don't have to like the guy to want to take advantage of the tech. Elon is a loud mouthed idiot, but he's somehow spawned some cool companies

It's because he does things that sound cool to him and doesn't handle any of the engineering when it's too complicated and thus leaves all power to actual professionals

SpaceX does fine because he's minimally involved, as does neuralink. Tesla he's ruined through his involvement but only barely (the stupid touch-based yoke and no lidar, for example).

His one actual ability is promoting companies to get private and public funding, then taking credit for all of it as if he had spawned them.
