One of the dumbest things a smart person can do is to start thinking they’re smarter than everyone else.

@willoremus you should remove the first ‘smart’ from this post and then it’s accurate.

People like Musk are only smart in certain domains and they are often incapable or incompetent in others. Further, their extreme wealth surrounds them with sychophants which just serve to reinforce their weaknesses and biases.
