IDK the comparison for two people making wild promises and pumping their company value works for me. Elon actually sold stock at the top value coming off his way ahead of himself promises though vs Holmes who didn't.

The dude was promising millions of RoboTaxis on the road by 2020 in 2019 and that owning a tesla would pay for itself in like 1 year using it as a robo taxi. He promised Tesla diesel convoys that are already more efficient than train freight shipping like November of 2017 that would be done 2019. He promised full cross crounty roadtrips with no driver in like 2017 and has continued to promise it "later this year" every year since.  He faked a self driving video and didn't disclose it. The guy who came in and took over head of AI for FSD said when he showed up in 2017 said how it had trouble even staying in the lane if a highway curved too much and same year Elon was saying it would be complete. He faked a press conference with non working solar tiles. He went on a tour about his hyperloop acting like it would be no problem and they would be building it in no time, and I'm sure there are others I'm forgetting about.

Yeah, he’s made a lot of promises he can’t keep up with. But Tesla has also been THE pioneer in the shift to EV. To deny that is to lie to yourself.  Tesla paved the way for all the major auto companies to start the switch.
