Elon Musk, who has warned of a global depopulation problem, had another child with a Neuralink executive. Neuralink director Shivon Zilis had the child with Musk earlier this year.
Business Insider revealed Musk and Zilis have twins in 2022 after finding a court document. We know of three of his children with Grimes and six from previous relationships. Musk shared a chart on Thursday claiming Europe has a “fertility crisis” and that “civilization may end with a bang or with a whimper (in adult diapers).”
Musk reaffirmed that argument in a 2022 Tucker Carlson interview and a May Milken Institute conference interview, according to Bloomberg. He told Carlson, “a collapsing birth rate is the biggest danger civilization faces, by far.” Musk’s nonprofit gave $10 million to the University of Austin’s Population Wellbeing Initiative in 2021.
Musk was accused of workplace and subordinate misconduct in various instances. According to The Wall Street Journal, Musk had a sexual connection with a former SpaceX intern who became an executive. The Journal reports that another employee repeatedly declined Musk’s requests to have children with him.
Eight former SpaceX engineers sued Musk last week, alleging that he “knowingly and purposefully created an unwelcome hostile work environment based upon his conduct of interjecting into the workplace vile sexual photographs, memes, and commentary that demeaned women and/or the LGBTQ+ community.” The complaint repeats SpaceX discrimination and sexual harassment charges, including Musk reportedly propositioning a flight attendant.
