Kara Swisher talks to the Musk biographer about what he observed shadowing the billionaire, how Musk compares with Steve Jobs, and much more.
Yes, I don’t appreciate someone tweeting homophobic, misogynist, and other things, racially insensitive things, continually. And it ultimately did break down our relationship. But I did have great admiration for the inspirational part of what he was doing. So you started doing that, and then you spent, you had been spending how many hours with him?, spend quite a bit of time in Austin.
And so it’s almost like Boswell got to do with Dr. Johnson. I think I’ve had more access than anybody we know to the most interesting person possible. I’ve had more access than anybody’s ever had to a biography subject.Is that a surprise to you, that he gave you such access? I mean, he’s an enormous narcissist. You understand that? So I can see why he would like Walter Isaacson following him around.
And you have to remember when he started, even 2007, 2008, GM had killed the electric car. Every other company had killed electric cars. And he said, if we don’t do it, we’ll never get to the era of sustainable energy.I think he’s not driven by, what do you call it, narcissism. I don’t think he’s driven by money.But I do agree with you. He doesn’t have much more impulse control than most people we know.
