I watched the Elon Musk interview with Joe Rogan and noticed that the guy is very arrogant. He acts as if he knows everything, yet he's wrong on a lot of stuff. Whenever he's presented with information that he doesn't know he literally acts as if what you're saying is irrelevant. In the interview with Rogan he mis-quotes Carl Sagan, and then when Rogan tells him about an event he wasn't familiar with he immediately loses interest and acted as if Joe Rogan was the stupid one for knowing irrelevant things. Musk is very arrogant. He's smart, but he's not a genius. I have a feeling Musk thinks he's a lot smarter than he actually is. I wasn't impressed by him at all. He doesn't seem all that smart yet he acts like he's the world's smartest man.

It takes an intelligent man to realize he isn't the smartest man in the room.

Always check your ego when you think that.

I find it refreshing sometimes to NOT be the smartest person in the room. To gain a new perspective, perhaps learn something I didn't know before. We're never too old to learn.

I can't read minds, so I try not to presume, but I've been in a lot of rooms where dumb ideas are prevailing, so something's gone wrong.

I know the feeling. My iq has been tested to be in the 150s, so I'm no genius, but often much smarter than the rest of the room. It's exhausting.

Intelligence only gets you so far, what's more important is how it's used.

I like this, "some people ain't smart enough to use their smarts".

The bible actually addresses this. It's called wisdom. You can be very intelligent but also unwise. Intelligence and wisdom are not synonymous or linked by nature. One doesn't begat the other. You're born with intelligence or lack of but wisdom is learned and or intuited by thinking things through, either rightly or wrongly.

Elon Musk said he invented the "Hyperloop" which is train in a tube and someone actually invented it like a hundred years ago. Also Musk said he would be on Mars by like 2018 and that never happened

I don’t particularly like him but I think it’s pretty common throughout history that men who accomplished amazing things didn’t always nail the timeframe the first time for the thing that everyone around him said was impossible.

He was supposed to send a robot there and he couldn't even do that. China has one there now

Hyperloop type concepts were known in the 70s.

Vacuum tubes are a bad idea anyway, it would be pressurized and dangerous.
