if you think any of the guys working for Elon or Trump are too “crazy” (code for: unpredictable, aggressive, and personalist; hated by a conformist and cowardly and crumpling establishment).
Unfortunately, being unpredictable and aggressive and hated is not sufficient to produce good results.
The level of competence I associate with crazy people working for Elon or Trump is more like: “Tell them to find the woke programs that need to be purged for political reasons, and they bring you a bunch of chemical studies on trans-isomers, despite having all necessary information and the state of the art artificial intelligence at their disposal”. Like, a high school student with a free version of ChatGPT would probably do a better job.
(I am specifically making note about having the AI at their disposal, to address a possible excuse “well, they had to act quickly, and there were too many studies and not enough time”.)
