Elon Musk’s influence extends far beyond business – and it continues to grow. But to understand how powerful and how potentially dangerous for democracy Musk’s empire truly is, one has to examine the worldview that made his rise possible. In their new book, the historian Quinn Slobodian and the writer Ben Tarnoff trace the ascent of the self-styled “Technoking” and the idea of fusing human beings with machines. We spoke with them about Musk’s relationship with the state, “cyborg conservatism,” and whether anything can still counter the fusion of political and digital power.
