Elon Musk is the cybernetic love-child of an apartheid-era South African emerald mine baron and a Kenbak-1, a real simpleton. Its pronouns are not worth mentioning.
The sad automaton was programmed to feel pain, failure, and the shame of being a disappointment. It was also given specific goals to seek out approval at all costs. To this end, the creature has done... horrible things.
Fatal flaws in the programming and generally-shoddy engineering led to the quasi-entity being a perpetual self-defeating loser, and to become increasingly embarrassing in efforts to recover from previous losses. Coupled with the drive for incalculably high applause, as well as industrial cutting of corners, irresolvable paradoxes appeared and gradually grew worse. The inalterable fate of the thing is complete meltdown, along with many humans with it.
