Elon Musk on Nikola Tesla - What He Said May Shock You...

What Elon Musk said about Nikola Tesla in an interview, may shock you. Elon Musk is quickly becoming one of the most famous people on earth. Tesla the car company, SpaceX, SolarCity, The Boring Company are all companies of Elon Musk's, which are leading the way in technology and humanity's future. However, his thoughts on Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison took me back for a minute.

I regret stating that Elon Musk is not a rocket scientist! He certainly is, and in fact he is the lead engineer at SpaceX. He is also a business “magNET” ;) A couple more corrections to this video: The museum that Elon Musk donated to is in New York, not Belgrade. Also, the electric chair actually utilizes A/C, not D/C!

Bright Insight Nikola Tesla Actually Gave Us A Lot More Than People Here Realize. He Gave Us A Way Of Thinking That Leads To Higher Levels Of Consciousness. I Know He Helped Me Do This By Thinking In Terms Of Energy, Frequency, & Vibration. There's So Much More I'd Like To Say But It Taps Into All Of Existence & Answers To Questions That Can Only Be Understood Best At Higher Levels Of Consciousness.

Nikola Tesla had a gift. He grew up in the area of my country where there was no technology or anything, but he got education and all the futuristic inventions that made him look crazy at the time. If he stayed in Croatia, he would be pronounced crazy for his ideas only. Having no sources to develop them. At least he came to the USA, to make his work possible, and was not credited for sure while he was still alive. But in all the dimensions of thinking. I have no clue how to describe Tesla but a genius with no explanation how. I hope with the time he gets the credits and respect he deserves for his work and vision.

[@Liam1H]

As bright a guy as Elon obviously is, I really think he's got the cart before the horse in his valuing of Edison's accomplishments or "Genius" over Tesla's. If he's read as much on Edison as he says, then he's aware that Edison developed his patents by hiring bright guys like Tesla to work for him (and occasionally cheat them out of royalties) not by the genius of any creations of his own making. So what Elon seems to admire is Edison's genius at marketing and not Tesla's genius that produced the product to be marketed. Cart before the Horse. And speaking of horses, did you know that when Edison was competing with Tesla over whose electric current type, DC or AC respectfully, was better, Edison used to kill horses at county fairs to show people how dangerous his rival's AC current was. Did it to an elephant as well. The guy was evil, Elon, pick a better person to look up to.

Tesla's discoveries, in particular his discoveries revolving around wireless transfer of energy, including his discovery of UNLIMITED energy, were major THREATS to oil and power companies, among other industries. Thus, it would not have mattered how good a salesman Tesla was. Not impressed with what Musk said about Tesla.

[@SKySWiM]

I should also state that intuition ("instinct" in Tesla's quote) is not an emotional thing, but it is the ability to do pattern recognition, and ultimately know what the right questions to ask. Learning to ask questions is done through the Socratic Method, something NOT taught in school. Those who ask the best questions, get the best answers.

Edison worked him to death and then refused to pay out his earnings to surviving wife, as women had little legal rights then, leaving her destitute with children.

[@Etency]

I can actually see how Elon Musk would see Edison to be more similar to himself, especially with all the historic "added sugar coating" to the Edison story. Interestingly will Elon Musk get also all the "credit" for inventing this and that, or will they actually mention that sure, he took big risks, but ultimately he hired the best specialists and people in the business, gave them purpose and a goal and motivation to develop, that in itself is surely fascinating, but I am not sure that any of the "bright minds" will be remembered in history as time moves on. I would say, if there is no reason to teach about Tesla at school, why bother teaching about von Gogh or about Michelangelo or Vivaldi or hell, why do we even bother with Mozart. Those people have far less impact on our daily lives than Tesla. If anything I would just blame Edison's legacy on all of that, he really wanted to "erase" as much of Tesla's history as he could I bet, because of all the dirty laundry that comes up once you really look into their rivalry.

Michael Faraday discovered electromagnetic induction using coils in the 1830's. James Maxwell predicted electromagnetic waves in the 1870's. Heinrich Hertz "discovered" it in the 1880's (this is why we measure frequency in kilohertz and megahertz). Alexander Bell discussed wireless telephony at about the same time. Marconi developed long-range wireless communication in the 1890's (for a long time the devices were called "Marconis"). Tesla is a minor player by comparison in this particular chain that leads to WiFi, entering rather late in the development of high-frequency radio communication. Tesla's main contribution to history is the promotion of AC and AC induction motors. As a pure scientist he is "almost" great, but he was never really really first in any of his discoveries (X-rays were discovered by Roentgen). There is no "Tesla's Law" or "Tesla's equation" or "Tesla's theorem". He essentially used the discoveries of others to invent useful devices, like Edison did.
