WALTER ISAACSON: THERE’S A GOODNESS TO ELON’S MISSIONS

“Elon has a deep care about humanity, about getting us to the transition to a sustainable energy, about human civilization.

He is motivated not by making money, not by being powerful and kicking around people, but by these missions that came when he was a little kid sitting in the corner reading the superhero comics.

I've got to help humanity be space-faring.

I've got to help it get over this sustainable energy issue.

I've got to help it fight off artificial intelligence that might be evil.

So, there is a goodness to his missions, and they are epic missions.”
