Anyone remember when he spent all his time talking about colonising mars? That was his big thing and the future. Whatever happened to that?

Then spacex got government funding. Now AI is the big thing.

I've still yet to see any of his great visions he's actually delivered on.

He took all the money he was going to use to do that, put it in a duffelbag with X written on the side, and burned it.

Isn't something like that why Elon got in trouble with the Tesla board? Something about using Tesla as a bank to fund space x.

Space X which he owns a controlling stake in, unlike Tesla.
