Walter Isaacson: Elon Musk is addicted to adventure. “I've had a gentle, sweet career, and I've got to cover really interesting people, but I've never shot off a rocket that might someday get to Mars. I've never moved us into the era of electric vehicles. I've never stayed up all night on the factory floor. I don't have quite those, either the drives or the addiction to risk. I mean, Elon's addicted to risk. He's addicted to adventure. Me, if I see something that's risky, I spend some time calculating, okay, upside, downside here. But that's another reason that people like Elon Musk get stuff done and people like me write about the Elon Musks.” Lex Fridman Podcast, September 10, 2023 https://x.com/ElonClipsX/status/1957751941804552403
