Elon Musk May Be Callous, Insensitive And 'Extremely Cruel' But 'Black Swan' Author Nassim Taleb Is Praying For His Safety Amid Rift With Trump - Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA)
Benzinga
Nassim Nicholas Taleb criticized Elon Musk as "extremely cruel" yet expressed support for the Tesla CEO and his stance against Donald Trump's spending bill, saying he prays for Musk's safety amid their escalating political feud.
On Monday, Nassim Nicholas Taleb expressed concern for Tesla Inc. TSLA CEO Elon Musk while criticizing his personality. What Happened: Taleb, a Lebanese-American options trader and strategist who is known for his book "The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable," took to X, formerly Twitter, and said, "I may find @elonmusk callous, insensitive, even extremely cruel (& non-nuanced), but I root for him & pray for his safety." I may find @elonmusk callous, insensitive, even extremely cruel (& non-nuanced), but I root for him & pray for his safety.— Nassim Nicholas Taleb (@nntaleb) July 7, 2025 See Also: Mark Cuban Says His Children Struggle With the Downsides of His Wealth: ‘Not That They Want To Be Poor, But It Sets An Expectation' Why It's Important: The comment came amid Musk's ongoing feud with President Donald Trump over the "Big Beautiful Bill," a sweeping tax-and-spend package that adds trillions to the federal deficit. Last month, Taleb also called on others to support Musk's stance. "Whatever you thin[k] of @elonmusk, you must support him in this. The Trump budget is a lunacy; it will bankrupt America," he wrote at the time. Musk, who previously headed the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has been vocal in his criticism, calling the bill "a disgusting abomination." On Saturday, Musk announced the formation of a new third party called the "America Party." Trump responded by calling the idea "ridiculous" and Musk "off the rails." According to Bloomberg's Billionaires Index, Musk's current net worth stands at $346 billion, reflecting a $15.3 billion decline in the latest change and a $86.7 billion drop year-to-date. Price Action: On Monday, Tesla shares dropped 6.79% to close at $293.94, according to Benzinga Pro data. Benzinga's Edge Stock Rankings indicate that TSLA shows a short-term downward trend but maintains a solid upward trajectory over the medium and long term. While its growth ranking remains strong, its value score is relatively weaker. More detailed performance data is available here.

Striking parallels between biological brains and AI during social interaction suggest fundamental principles
UCLA researchers have made a significant discovery showing that biological brains and artificial intelligence systems develop remarkably similar neural patterns during social interaction. This first-of-its-kind study reveals that when mice interact socially, specific brain cell types synchronize in "shared neural spaces," and AI agents develop analogous patterns when engaging in social behaviors. |
