Errol Musk shared insights about his son, Elon Musk, especially focusing on Elon's notorious "demon mode." Errol recounts a touching moment last year when Elon publicly acknowledged him at a SpaceX Hawaiian party, attributing his engineering knowledge to his father, despite Errol’s humble attempts to deflect the praise. The father-son duo was reuniting after years, marking a rare family moment amidst Elon's hectic lifestyle.
Elon's demanding nature in business, referred to as "demon mode," was explored during the interview. This intense, hyper-focused state sees Elon pushing himself and his team to extraordinary limits to avert potential calamities, Errol explained. Comparing it to Steve Jobs' "reality distortion field," Errol asserted such modes are crucial for greatness in business, though often at the cost of personal and team sacrifices. Despite the challenges, Errol acknowledged that this mentality is instrumental in driving success and innovation, drawing parallels with leadership traits seen in other successful figures.
