    The parallels between Musk and Stark seemed perfect on paper. Both are billionaire tech innovators with a flair for the dramatic and dreams of changing the world.

    They’re not, though. Stark is a rare engineering powerhouse who personally pushed past a lot of engineering boundaries, and Musk is an investor/programmer who mostly puts his name on existing things.

    I might change my mind if Musk personally invents AGI, nanobots, and a previously-unknown clean energy source capable of powering a 1/3rd of NYC with a room no larger than a foyer, like Stark did, but I’m not holding out much by way of hopes.

          Out of interest, do you have any sources that what he does is not reliable? This is not some kind of I’m pissed off about your comnent, I’m actually not. Having said that, I see tgis as an opportunity to learn about Harris’ shortcomings. Thanks in advance.
