Elon Musk wants people to have babies.

I think one of the biggest risks to civilization is the low birth rate and the rapidly declining

birth rate. He has at least 10 children of his own. If people don't have

more children, civilization is going to crumble. Mark my words.

In 2021, he had two children with one of his employees, Chavan Zillis, an executive at his company

Nuralink. She has said, quote, I can't possibly think of jeans I would prefer for my

children. According to a Wall Street Journal investigation Zillis isn't the

only employee that Musk has thought about having babies with.

Musk allegedly asked an employee at SpaceX multiple times to have his babies, but she turned him down.

According to people familiar with the matter, after that, their professional

relationship soured. He had denied her a raise. He'd made some performance

complaints about her,

even though she was sort of intimately involved

in handling his day-to-day.

That's our colleague Joe Palazzolo.

According to his sources,

the woman left SpaceX after receiving an exit package valued at more than a million dollars.

Now, Joe and his Wall Street Journal colleagues are reporting that she's one of several female former employees of SpaceX who have told friends, family, or the company

itself that Musk pursued them or showed them an unusual amount of attention. SpaceX says that our reporting is misleading and doesn't represent the company's

culture. A lot of the allegations are mutually reinforcing and it was just a surprise to me because, you know, we've in other reporting kind of seen the blurring of Musk's personal and professional lives.

And this is sort of that, but taken to an extreme that is very much contrary to

existing norms of workplace conduct.
