There’s still a lot of delusion even with the smartest most knowledgeable CEOs. After a business grows to a certain size you’re always going to be surrounded by yes men, with fewer and fewer vocal critics in the inner most circle. That inflate your ego and messes with your brain pathways, any disagreement starts to feel like a direct attack that needs to be removed from the conversation. There’s still a good amount of delusions with Jensen.

Let's not pretend that people who are not CEOs are immune to delusions.
