Doesn't mean he can't be batshit crazy. In fact, that seems to go hand in hand with many of these super successful genius types.

Yep. Elon Musk clearly knows more about technology than anyone on this board. It doesn't mean he's right about everything.

Steve Jobs was a technological genius. He also thought he could cure his cancer on a diet of fruit juice. Is anybody going to play the "I think Steve Jobs knows a little bit more than you" card on that?

I would love anybody to show me the path that gets us to true autonomous artificial intelligence in five years, much less Skynet Junior.

On the other hand, if the premise is that some drone malfunctions and drops some bombs on the wrong target, yeah I can see that, even though I still think the odds are small and that it certainly wouldn't be a regular occurrence.
