Well yes, Musk is a “genius” a lot like Edison was: He knew jack-shit about inventing, but he knew a great deal about marketing. His greatest invention was one that corporations follow to this day: Creating an R&D department whose work you can profit off of by slapping your name all over the patents and then suing anybody (including your own employees) for “infringing” upon them. While we know Tesla and alternating current only because the man was able to find a patron in George Westinghouse, Zod only knows how many other brilliant inventions were killed because Edison’s basic 19th century education made it impossible for him to see the profit in them.
