How could anyone but musk win?
Peter Thiel is also abysmal. Elon is more visibly terrible today but Thiel has been bankrolling regressives from the shadows for 20 years. He published his first screed about diversity in academia in 1995. So he is an all-time shitstain, for sure.
Depends on if we consider Zuccer a person.
Zuck is bad sure, but he’s not a jackass, at least not publicly, he might not have made the best decision for meta but the company is by no means failing, Elon is just so much worse on every level.
Not failing, but actively ignoring Metas own research that shows Facebook is directly harmful to children and teens.
I’d say actively continuing to harm children should outrank being a jackass and/or incompetence.
At this point it’s like choosing cancer over Alzheimer’s. Die from excruciating inner torment or infuriate everyone else until you die.
I dunno, some of these votes are like comparing stage 4 leukemia to a mere urinary tract infection, and the UTI is somehow winning.
Musk shouldn’t have won against Ellison. Musk is an uncontrolled trainwreck, sure, but Ellison is a highly controlled and effective lawnmower. He’s just better at not being known.
Very amusing. I still know barely anything about him, but I’m thoroughly convinced.
How did Nadella lose to Altman? Nadella is the reason Altman is what it is now. The reason open ai is not anymore an independent no profit research team to push open AI solutions.
He’s the king maker of evil tech. Nadella vs Musk is the only possible final. Whoever voted is insulting one of 2 main contenders. Like CEO of BP losing to a gas pump owner
It’s almost as if this is the most popular worst tech person. It’s like that year all of Reddit voted EA the worst company in the world. There are companies out there costing people their lives by intentional malfeasance but a company is doing video games dirty is the worst…
I think I’d say Thiel is worse than Musk. He supports anti-gay politicians while being gay himself. Tax cuts are more important than having the law treat people as human beings.
It’s possible that Musk might fail to understand exactly how shitty he’s being due to his autism, I’m pretty sure Thiel knows he’s fucking people over and doesn’t care. Also the whole bloodboy thing.

the heck, how did altman get so far? not that hes an angel(by far no), but someone like SBF did way worse imo
bezos
Well if the title is for just 2023 I think musk has it, if we take overall negative impact in a lifetime then I’m not sure but musk is probably not as bad.
So much names i never ever heard before and i dont wanna look up, after knowing what a fucker musk is (also he wil win)
Of the four I’ll take Bezos. Elon says controversial stuff but most of his businesses are legit. He owns Twitter now but he didn’t create that monster. Altman opened up a can of worms with AI but I do believe he initially had some good intentions with it. I don’t even know who Peter Thiel is. Bezos is just an evil corporate suit and Amazon will do anything for money.
How the hell did Gates get eliminated in the first round??
Better question: who the fuck is Palmer Luckey?
Dude invented oculus
Ok but what has he done to earn a nomination as the worst person in tech?
Being bought out by Facebook doesn’t seem to qualify, especially when Zuckerberg lost in the first round too…
