     @arstechnica It is fairly simple. No. Can’t blackmail the company into doubling Elon’s shares. All AI and Robotics so far built under Telsla is their IP not his. Also this would be a flip from Musk’s statement that Tesla was an energy company to AI/Robotics… Sorry Elon, if ya want to start a new company that is a different question all together.

     Whether a consumer, investor, … When you run into someone like Musk, you don't ask questions. You just turn around a walk away.

     @arstechnica I’m sure there are Tesla execs and others that would jump at the opportunity to seperate from Musk.
