Friendship aside, AI comes first

Today, your friendly AI Human is going to talk about friendship and the effort it takes to maintain one. Our story is about Elon Musk and Larry Ellison. Read on.

Nearly a decade ago, Musk said, “A well-thought-out critique of whatever you’re doing is as valuable as gold. You should seek that from everyone you can, particularly your friends. Usually, your friends know what’s wrong, but they don’t want to tell you because they don’t want to hurt you”, particularly in the context of improving one’s work. 

Cut to the present: Musk has gone overboard and hurt his best bud Larry and the reasons are, well, justified.

Elon Musk wants to run fast
