Bill Gates doesn't think it's fair to call Elon Musk "the next Steve Jobs," the billionaire philanthropist said during an interview onWhen asked by Bloomberg's Erik Schatzker if Musk was indeed the next Jobs, Gates replied: "If you know people personally, that kind of gross oversimplification seems strange. Elon’s more of a hands-on engineer; Steve was a genius at design and picking people and marketing. You couldn’t walk into a room and confuse them with each other.
Gates said he has tremendous respect for Musk and praised Tesla's product, but also said, "the difficulty on the other areas [of the battle against climate change] is much higher. I’m not trivializing in any way the need to raise the market share of [electric vehicles], but on a relative basis, that's far easier than the industrial economy where our progress is very, very small.
Gates' remarks are the latest in a series of digs the two billionaires have taken at each over the past six months, including when Musk tweeted that his conversations with Gates have been "underwhelming" and Gates said Musk's "positioning is to maintain a high level of outrageous comments,"
Because Elon does not share his political agenda? Part of my reason for deciding to invest in Tesla is how well it is doing in spite of Elon Musk not being loved by Leftist media and getting religious following like Steve Jobs did. I am not saying Elon Musk is a Conservative

This coming from the same idiot who thinks he can wipe out all disease but Mother Nature isn't about to concede.
What about his Space X... Being able to make rockets reusable. And if you really think about it, he's kind of a genius in design, marketing and management too. What's with the bitterness BillGates
So guy steals the IP of Kildall and then spends decades creating a monopoly stifling innovation and were supposed to care what this jackass thinks...
Billion dollars worth of shade right there
The former...

Absolutely true. Elon Musk is a naive upstart. None of his projects is anyhow complex, whatever you take.
BTW, Tesla has not: recycled any batteries, sold any cars for $35K, shown that the EV car manufacturering is a clean/fair trade industry.
Steve Jobs over the work table at APPLE, while working out the specifics of the IPAD to be created. Then Steve has an ah-ha moment & proclaims, “this (iPad) would make a GREAT PHONE 📱, get started on it right away...” almost three years later(2007) iPhone is sold!!?!!
Shots fired...
Isn't this the same old man that tried to get away with having a monopoly? Why do people still listen to Bill, he's not as smart as people make him out to be. He's just a grumpy old boomer with nothing better to do with his massive wealth, except complain and brag.
'If you know people personally, that kind of gross oversimplification seems strange. Elon’s more of a hands-on engineer. Steve was a genius at design and picking people and marketing. You wouldn’t walk into a room and confuse them with each other.'
Bill Gates is right it's not fair to call Elon Musk the next Steve Jobs. Because Elon is going to be far greater
