It would be great if both of these guys would become eccentric recluses like Howard Hughes.

And not an eccentric recluse like Ted Kaczynski:

What's the relation between the two? Kaczynski's ideas are pretty much correct. See the book Technological Slavery: https://ia800207.us.archive.org/16/items/tk-Technological-Sl...


Both were eccentric dropouts. Hughes did big flying things, Kaczynski did AI doom.

Musk tweeted "He might not be wrong" about Kaczynski so maybe it's in progress.

Or we just go back to 5 years ago Elon where he tweeted about rockets instead of far right conspiracy theories.
