Elon Musk: The Real Life Iron Man

This movie was extremely boring. Elon is not a prophet or a savior to the technological world. He is given credit to things when he doesn't deserve it. Most people don't know he weaseled his way into tesla automotive. This might be a shock to his followers but he didn't invent the tesla cars. He merely strong armed his way in with money and cause a rift within the original company to position himself for the leadership position. After he took hold of tesla, it was hundreds of actual engineers that worked/design and improved the cars to what they are now without elons self absorbed narrassasitic and over egoed self.

They have a problem with one person getting through the whole "Elon Musk" story. It is a hand full of people that repeat and repeat themselves and never get to any conclusion.

There is a redeeming value of the fact that the presentation is somewhat in chronological order.

Most of the story is well known; however, there is an occasional surprise allowing you to say, "I did not know that."

After discussing the various facets of Must achievements, the is a small focus on What if A. I. no longer needs people or at least runs the world?

Time to watch "Colossus: The Forbin Project." So, the thinking is brain/A. I. interface. Let us hope it is not IBM's "Watson."

Let us think off the deep end and watch "World on a Wire" (The Criterion Collection.) Or the English abbreviated version "The Thirteenth Floor."

Next, we are introduced to "The Boring company."

Being a tad dated we do not see the latest updates including" Elon Musk says he has moved to Texas. That factory is Tesla's Giga Texas - will be used to build Tesla's Cybertruck, Semi, as well as the Model 3 and Y for the Eastern part of the United States.

Despite opinions to the contrary, Elon Musk is not a robot, but he has done things that very few living people can claim.

This well-done documentary explores his powerful visions and spends time on important issues. There are particularly interesting sections on the potential of getting to Mars and the benefits of autonomous vehicles, as well as the developments in artificial intelligence, which are seen as terrifying, even by some involved in creating them.

Musk, often hailed as a visionary for his ambitious ventures like SpaceX and Tesla, faces significant hate despite his intentions to drive progress for humanity.

Critics frequently label him a "narcissist" or "hypocrite," pointing to his controversial statements-like calling a British diver a "pedo guy" during the Thai cave rescue-or his handling of Twitter after its 2022 acquisition. Others resent his immense wealth, seeing him as a symbol of inequality. Yet his actions stem from a genuine desire to do good-SpaceX aims to colonize Mars to ensure humanity's survival, Tesla pushes for sustainable energy to combat climate change, and Neuralink seeks to revolutionize healthcare for the disabled. While his methods may polarize, his goal of advancing human civilization reveals a complex figure whose innovations should overshadow the criticism he endures.

This is an older documentary, but a compelling watch. The film captures Musk at a pivotal moment in his career, before some of his more controversial moves.

What stands out most is the glowing testimony from Musk's friends and colleagues who know him well-like former PayPal VP Julie Anderson-Ankenbrandt and astronaut Per Wimmer-who have nothing but praise for his relentless drive, visionary thinking, and genuine desire to better humanity. Their accounts paint Musk as an inspiring, if eccentric, genius, offering a stark contrast to the hate he faces today. For anyone looking to understand the man behind the headlines, this documentary is a good starting point that highlights the positivity surrounding Musk's mission-driven life.

A standout moment is the exploration of Musk's childhood, where his solitary nature and love for sci-fi books foreshadow his Mars ambitions. The film traces his journey from a nerdy, bullied kid in South Africa to a billionaire innovator, highlighting his relentless drive and unconventional thinking of the mastermind behind PayPal, Tesla, and SpaceX.

It examines his ability to dream big and defy odds, whether it's landing rockets with SpaceX or attempting to revolutionize transportation. His story is peppered with setbacks like Tesla's early struggles and triumphs like SpaceX's reusable rockets-it feels like a real-life superhero saga. It left me in awe.

It makes me want to go out and change the world.

Everything you need to know about the genius Elon Musk. In addition to the classically told biography, a psychologist's view of Elon Musk's childhood is particularly interesting. His drive to become an entrepreneur, his relationship with his father, the bullying in school, to his worldwide success.
