Marc Andreessen on how @elonmusk works: "He has an operating method that he's developed that I would say is very unusual by modern standards. I'm not aware of another current CEO who operates the way that he does." "The top-line thing is this incredible devotion from the leader of the company to fully, deeply understand what the company does and to be in the trenches and talking directly to the people who do the work." "Basically what Elon does is he shows up every week at each of his companies, he identifies the biggest problem that the company's having that week, and he fixes it." "He does that every week for 52 weeks in a row, and then each of his companies has solved the 52 biggest problems that year." "Someone who used to work in one of the other aerospace companies and went to work at SpaceX said... 'It's like being dropped into a shocking zone of competence.'" "Most of us never have that experience. Most people are never in an organization where the bar is held that high." @pmarca with @ChrisWillx

We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible. Read our full statement: anthropic.com/news/fable-myt…
