Initially, I didn't think these kids were fall guys.

That was my thought. Young kids fresh out of school are really easy to manipulate into delusions of grandeur, especially when said delusions are offered by the richest person in the world. He's gonna leave them out for the wolves.

Either that or Musk himself is truly so incompetent he thinks these kids are true geniuses. Honestly, with how things are going, that's a fiddy-fiddy chance, because Musk is somehow almost as unbelievably stupid as Trump.
