Serena Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian endorses bold claim about Elon Musk's impact on 'raising the level of ambition' for engineers & entrepreneurs

Serena Williams' husband, Alexis Ohanian, recently endorsed a bold claim about Elon Musk. Ohanian agreed with the idea that Musk has had a big impact on raising the "level of ambition" of engineers and entrepreneurs around the world.

Musk is one of the wealthiest people globally, and as of this year, Forbes estimated his net worth to be a staggering $430.9 billion. He is the CEO of Tesla, which is a multinational automotive and clean energy company and is also the CEO of SpaceX, which is a manufacturer of advanced rockets and spacecraft.

In addition to his roles at Tesla and SpaceX, the 53-year-old also owns a significant percentage of xAI, an artificial intelligence company focused on advancing scientific discovery. He also purchased Twitter in April 2022 and renamed it to X.

Recently, Boyan Slat, the CEO of The Ocean Cleanup, took to social media to point out that Elon Musk's impact on entrepreneurs is an "underappreciated factor." He said that the Tesla CEO has played a big role in elevating the "level of ambition" of numerous founders and engineers.

“I think an underappreciated factor of Elon’s impact on the world is how he’s raised the level of ambition for so many founders and engineers. I wouldn’t be surprised if these second-order effects end up having an even greater impact on the world than his own businesses," Slat posted on X (formerly known as Twitter).

Reacting to Slat's claim, Serena Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian, who co-founded Reddit in 2005 and has been involved with various other tech companies and much more since then took to social media and posted:

“☝️ This," Ohanian posted on X.

Last month, Elon Musk shared that he believes that making "GLP-1 inhibitors" easily accessible and affordable to Americans would greatly benefit their health

Musk stated that by using GLP-1 medications, many people would be able to manage their blood sugar levels and their weight, which would help them improve their health and in turn reduce healthcare costs.

“Making GLP inhibitors available at low cost to Americans who wish to use them would greatly improve health and reduce healthcare costs," Musk posted on X.

Reacting to Musk's opinion, Serena Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian pointed to the efforts of "Ro," an American telehealth company, which is providing Zepbound, an injectable prescription medicine that aids in weight loss, at an affordable price to Americans.

“It's begun; @ro literally just launched integration with Lilly for Zepbound for 9 direct to consumer!" Ohanian posted.

Along with being a tech entrepreneur like Elon Musk, Alexis Ohanian is also focused on investing and expanding various women's sports. He, along with Serena Williams and many others, co-owns Angel City F.C., a professional women's soccer team that plays in the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL). This year he also launched Athlos, a female-only track and field competition series this year
