Nova National Audio News Editor Michelle Stephenson says the problem with Elon Musk is that he has a “God complex”.

“He has this kind of idea that he is this genius, and he was going to go in and fix it all and he’s finding it a little bit more difficult,” Ms Stephenson told Sky News Australia.

“Now he’s lost probably around 75 per cent of the workforce and there were concerns that Twitter was going to go down on the weekend because they didn’t have enough engineers to keep it all kind of running quite smoothly.”
