surely as the guy figure heading this and running the show he gets ultimate credit for the success and failures, the same is true of any company...
As a company CEO, yes. Not as a fucking tech guru.
i also doubt that his "little helpers" are putting the efforts they are putting in out of the goodness of their hearts and are being rewarded for their work otherwise they'd just leave..
Not the point. But while we're on that topic, they are actually being rewarded relatively badly for their work, especially once you take into account overtime and 'crunch'. If you want to dig up some dirt on how he runs his companies, there's plenty of stuff out there. He absolutely exploits the enthusiasm and energy of new graduates who haven't learned yet how to properly value themselves and their work.
is he claiming that he could do what he does without his employees?
Also not the point. This is about how he's being presented as some kind of space tech Jesus, and he just isn't.

I'm not sure he gets paid to be either a "space tech jesus" or "fucking tech genius" hes running commercial ventures and leading them, a job title that most call CEO, but given he is a bit cooky he may have adopted one of those titles?!
and as for exploiting grads... are they being chained up or are the voluntarily going to work for a company that is widely known and easily re-searchable...? i suspect its the latter and if they are being mistreated then lots of them will be taking a load of experience from their exploitation and toddling off to one of the more established car companies looking to start producing electric cars...
Friends who work in the UK EV market suggest that knowledge is a huge shortage right now and its experience and not monetary reward that it causing that shortage.
