I mean, they are a bunch of rocket scientists. That's the group everyone has expected to be the smartest people in the room for about a century. ๐
I thought that was AI people.
Turns out ... thats not working out so well.
In everything other than the /lets literally build SkyNet/ department.
But the idiom isn't "it's not AI" it's "it's not rocket science." ๐๐
Well the only relevant idiom I can think of here is:
Elon Musk is a stupid person's idea of what a smart person is.
Or, this isnt really an idiom but maybe uh:
Fascists? In my NASA? I did Nazi that one coming.
Sorry, my joke generating subroutine has not been updated since the time that the rocket scientist idiom you mention was popularized.
