Gate News bot message, according to the encryption KOL DogeDesigner’s video clip shared on X, Elon Musk shared a story from his university days today:

"In 1995, I faced a choice: either go to Stanford for my PhD or try to venture into a field that most people had never heard of, which was the internet. I discussed with my professor whether I could postpone for a quarter, as this field could very well fail, and then I would have to return to the university to continue my studies. He then said, this might be our last conversation. He was right."
