Can we agree to stop saying “Musk’s Grok”, “Musk’s Tesla”, etc.? It only plays into his desire to be viewed as a genius instead of just a guy with blood diamond money. He’s never created anything.
I get it but maybe something different like “Musk-led Tesla” would achieve what you said while also making it clear he plays no creative role in the companies (which he very much wants, just look up reports of him sitting in on engineering meetings making stupid proposals)

Disagree. We shouldn’t distance him from the sources of his wealth, and power, when discussing his businesses.
Doing so only enables him.

I think it’s important to draw the relation so that people can choose to not those things if they so wish to.

Whenever I see Grok, I think of the support character from Paladins.
