I admit that I didn't like Zuck before. But I have to say, I am becoming a big fan of him, primarily due to his strategy in ML/AI for Meta, and his willingness to burn cash to solve the problems of VR. Zuck is many things good and bad, but certainly one of those things is that he's a nerd who loves technology and wants to move it forward, and I can't help but respect that massively especially given his results.
I respect the same about Musk. It's the only thing that I respect about either of them. But, boy, it's hard for me not to respect individual who are inventing the future.
Yes, Musk is in the same category. You can hate his opinions, sure, but to not respect him in some form or fashion just betrays an ignorant worldview IMO.
