A modern gameshow featuring tech CEOs?
I came across this old video featuring @pmarca on a computer quiz show and thought: wouldn’t it be entertaining to have a modern version of this game show featuring current tech CEOs/founders?
Assuming the topics are spread across a wide variety of science topics from computers to physics, who do you think would win? I think contests like these favor either the booksmart or the true generalist. Elon Musk would win regardless of who you ask - redditors and the media who despise him think his intelligence is nil and he’s only capable of speaking about things, while engineers who have actually worked with him would think it’s because of the latter.
