Steve Wozniak slammed Elon Musk during an interview with CNBC on Thursday, calling him dishonest and saying he feels 'robbed' by Tesla FSD claims.
Wozniak told Andrew Ross Sorkin that he thinks Musk and his late friend Steve Jobs are"very similar" when it comes to convincing people to believe in their products — but added that the similarities end there.
"I put them in the category of having the ability to communicate, and wanting to be seen as the important person and be like a cult leader," Wozniak said, adding that he doesn't believe Musk is of the same caliber of entrepreneur as Jobs."A lot of people will follow them no matter what they say."Wozniak, who is credited with designing Apple's early computers, also said that he believes Musk lacks honesty.
"My life has been based on total honesty," Wozniak said."Everything you say is totally honest. You don't hide things. You don't make things up. You don't make yourself seem better. And a lot of honesty disappears when you look at Elon Musk and Tesla." The Apple cofounder said Musk and Tesla"robbed" his family of money due to the company's claims about its self-driving technology. Wozniak said he bought a Tesla in 2016
