The other day, Steve Wozniak gave an interview to the host of the Squawk Box program on CNBC, during which he compared Elon Musk with Steve Jobs. At the same time, in his opinion, Musk is not able to compete with Jobs in the field of entrepreneurship.

The co-founder of Apple admitted that all his life he tried to be an honest person, which cannot be said about Musk. According to Wozniak, the Tesla company he founded stole a lot of money from his family.
The entrepreneur has a Tesla electric car. In 2016, he paid Musk’s company to upgrade it. Tesla engineers installed a beta version of the FSD autopilot system in the car. Musk argued that before the end of the year, electric cars with FSD will be able to travel around the country without the help of drivers.
Believing the head of Tesla, Wozniak spent another 50,000 USD to upgrade his wife’s electric car. The co-founder of Apple hoped that after the modernization, the car would be able to move around the city in autopilot mode. His expectations were not met.
Wozniak credited Musk for accelerating the transition of the automotive industry from ICE vehicles to electric vehicles. However, he does not hesitate to use marketing tricks to promote his electric vehicles. Jobs was not like that. If the head of Apple promised something to consumers, then they definitely got it.
