To apply for any job, you need experience and need to be able to demonstrate that experience. Actual real experience contributing to a real project that affected real people. Most university degrees will have an aspect of that, so anyone who has completed a degree will have some amount of experience. Usually a very tiny amount for a bachelors but a masters or doctorate have a lot more experience tied into them. So that’s why job applications require a degree. But if you can demonstrate your experience elsewhere, then that experience is more valuable than a degree. And employers won’t give a fuck if you don’t have a degree. What Elon is saying here, is to just go and do whatever you want to and make an impact. You don’t need education to do that, go educate yourself

When I started University on the West Coast in 1970 it cost me $90 per quarter and about $10 for books. So under $500 a year. I paid it all myself. I bought a house several years later for $44,500 with a view of the water and mountains on 1 acre of land. Paid $278 month payments. Now they want $20,000 for a year of University and $450,000 for my house. Something happened in between and it was not by accident! They had to employ those well papered people somewhere and needed a lot of money to do it. Government debt loves inflation. Individuals not so much! I had a chance that is not so available today!

Only time you should consider a PhD is if you want to go into R&D. Only time you should consider getting a masters is if there is something you specifically want to do that can only be done with a masters. Otherwise, simply having a degree is fine if the field is in demand. Another thing. People get too caught up on "This successful person didn't have a PhD" or "That successful person didn't finish college"....those people are(or were) usually self motivated individuals who went into their programs with an understanding of the subjects in their curriculum and didn't feel there was anything more for them to learn, and left to do something very specific like start a business or pursue a field of research. These aren't stories of people who failed at college and found success elsewhere, so don't try to compare yourself to them just cause you didn't make it through school. Motivation, discipline, and vision are the keys to success

For those that get confused about what "utility delta" is: utility (of your creation) means usefulness/value and is a common term in fields such as economics, game theory and machine learning. Delta can be understood as difference/change. So the utility delta of something you'd want to create simply means the added value of the thing you want to create. Also, using terms like this is not a sign of intelligence or sophistication. It's a sign that you hang out with a particular group of people that commonly use such terms and have incorporated those terms into your own vocabulary because you also find utility in using them. What utility he finds in using them, I leave up to you to decide.

Misleading title. People spin Musk up too often to be a “college is useless” advocate. The idea he expresses here is reality, however. Continued education such as masters and PhDs are *sometimes* useful. But they aren’t useless or a waste of time for every career field. In heavily expertise fields it can be very helpful. Take his own company for example, engineers working on Tesla products greatly benefit from continued college education. That isn’t to say it’s impossible to gain an education without experience in the field in lieu of it, but gaining experience in *parallel* with an education can expedite peoples progress.

Years ago I came up with an idea 💡 of how to integrate suspension into a bicycle wheel. It sounds like a great idea 💡 to start with but when you actually build one you realize even if it magically worked perfectly it’s NOT a good idea and you then realize how good swing arm suspension is, which you can not understand until going through this exercise. Then years later some kid built exactly what I had thought of and he went to the trouble to finish it, patent it, and try to market it. NO ONE WOULD BUY IT, because it is TO HEAVY! And he got a lot of good press on it. I realized trying out my prototype, it would add too much weight, too much apparatus to the whole bike, and the total amount of suspension too small so not really not attractive as a product at all. One day a version of wheel integrated suspension may become the standard, but that will only happen when a material much stronger than current metals and just as machinable and weldable is used in building bikes.

Good answer to a strange question. Here's my take. I wanted to teach at a college level in the U.S. To do that where I want to, I need a PhD. Simple as that. The only question you need to ask is whether you NEED it. Also, two things people dont often know about PhD programs in the U.S. A) they pay you to go--it's a job. B) In most programs I know of, it is preferred you do not have an MA degree first.

Outside of sciences (hard science (geology, physics, engineering, etc. - none of this political science, social science garbage)), medical, and law, nobody should be going to college. The vast majority of jobs do not require upper education, yet a huge portion of them demand a college degree. Just the other day I was talking to someone who has a PhD in "sociology." She makes $25/hr. I have two bachelor's degrees, and make $45/hr. Social studies, art, etc. need to be cut from upper education.

What is a PhD? Many people do a batchelors degree and that's essentially a hard version of high-school but you're maybe not living at home and you have some grants, loans and these days you have a part time job too. You leave your degree with lots of knowledge but very little to no practical skill. A master course gets you a year to 18th months of a research apprenticeship. A PhD is basically a 3-6 year research job with little pay and a 60 hour working week. You get--- for the first time---to experience managing your own projects (if you're lucky with some guidance) and have to take responsibility for problem solving. If your PhD is academic, same thing but with theoretical problems to solve.You do a PhD with two paths ahead: 1) A post-doctoral position maybe leading to an academic professorship (Tenure if someone dies) 2) You leave and go into industry. 3) You leave and stop working in that profession. There are around 20% of graduates that do a PhD in science. Of them, around 20% take on a postdoctoral position. Around 20% of them will do 2 or 3 postdoctoral positions. Some of them may get a professorship. Most people in that path drop out at some juncture. If you for instance do a PhD in molecular biology and end up applying for a job working at big a pharma company, there will be 100 graduate jobs for every 2 positions requiring a PhD. Thus, having a PhD makes job hunting harder. It's easier and cheaper to grow your own graduate into the worker you want than it is to pay postdoctoral wages to then have to do the same thing to a PhD holder. Unless you have some very sought after skills (a specific niche), you're better off going into industry instead of a PhD if you think being a professor isn't for you. PhD students in biological sciences can end up in teaching, Medical communications, medical sales and a variety if other affiliated professions that aren't research. Thus, don't do a PhD in research unless you really love research and that's what you want as a career. Do a masters first before a PhD, so you find out what the life is like before you sign up for a full PhD. There are many benefits going through the process of doing a PhD: you learn to sell ideas (how you get funded), you get to learn how to plan large projects and plan how to write a thesis. You'll be good at writing after you complete your PhD. However, it is not an easy path and not for the uncommitted. PhD in subjects less well funded will actually cost you money---they won't come with grants. In these cases, you can't afford not to be sure it's what you live for. My advice for PhD students is this: 1) Put your PhD work first, everything else last. 2) Get into work early and ask your questions before everyone gets into their own work. 3) Before you start research, read every major paper and review article your PhD supervisor has written or been involved with. Read all the main papers they cite often. Spend most of your 6 months at the beginning learning where the field is at and where the interesting questions are at. Don't just start doing work on what your supervisor suggests, as you won't have his perspective. To be independent, you need to be on their page so you can talk at their level. This will impress them and they will take you more seriously. 4) If you're doing a PhD, and you're not getting the help you need nor are you able to work out how to do things, network with other people not in your lab/department! Get on forums and ask questions. Talk to other researchers not in your lab or department. Socialise with them. Get an outside mentor---maybe a retired researcher. Use ChatGPT. Do whatever it takes to broaden your perspective and find a way to solve your problems. 5) Always have 3 projects: one main, one backup, and one wildcard. Don't expect any of them to work. Don't be afraid to transition a project that's stuck for lower hanging fruit, especially if the equipment is not sensitive enough or some other technical reason which can't be overcome within the duration.
