A Quote by Steve Jurvetson

Elon Musk wins you over with his elegant mastery of engineering, be it for the rocket or the car. But what blew my socks off was when our conversation veered way off topic. We started musing about whether it was possible we all lived in the matrix, and Musk still had deep knowledge.

I think it's very easy for people who are not deep in the technology itself to make generalizations, which may be a little dangerous. And we've certainly seen that recently with Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Stephen Hawking, all saying AI is just taking off and it's going to take over the world very quickly. And the thing that they share is none of them work in this technological field.

Rodney Brooks

It's hard for me to speculate about what motivates somebody like Stephen Hawking or Elon Musk to talk so extensively about AI. I'd have to guess that talking about black holes gets boring after awhile - it's a slowly developing topic.

Oren Etzioni

One of the reasons I'm excited by what visionary Elon Musk has done with the Tesla is to show that you can reduce global warming and drive a powerful, fun car. A cool car helps make a cooler planet.

Dean Ornish

Tesla burns cash. It's not a car company, it's a cult of fanatics who think Elon Musk can do no wrong. But financially, it doesn't work.

Bob Lutz

I love musk oil. There's something about musk that makes it memorable without being overpowering.

Iggy Azalea

I'm not going to take anyone else's word for it, or NASA, or especially Elon Musk with SpaceX. I'm going to build my own rocket right here and I'm going to see it with my own eyes what shape this world we live on.

Mike Hughes

Elon Musk is a remarkable individual.

Steve Jurvetson

Elon Musk is a cool cookie.

John Collison

I wish I was as annotative as Elon Musk.

Glenn Kelman

This idea of 'cool capitalism' is still capitalism. It doesn't matter if Elon Musk quotes Nas.

Boots Riley

Elon Musk with PayPal revolutionized banking.

Peter Diamandis

Mark Zuckerberg talks about telepathy, and Elon Musk has invested in trying to create a brain-machine interface.

Franklin Foer

Elon Musk is talking about silicon nanoparticles pulsing through our veins to make us sort of semi-cyborg computers. But why not take a noninvasive approach? I've been working and trying to think and invent a way to do this for a number of years and finally happened upon it and left Facebook to do it.
