If you disagree, I would argue you have a very sad view of the world, where truth and cooperation are inferior to lies and manipulation.

OAI's problem isn't that Sam is untrustworthy; he's just too obviously untrustworthy.
Elon is not "untrustworthy" because of some ambitious deadlines or some stupid statements. He's plucking rockets out of the air and doing it super cheap whereas all competitors are lining their pockets with taxpayer money.
You add in everything else (free speech, speaking his mind at great personal risk, tesla), he reads as basically trustworthy to me.
When he says he's going to do something and he explains why, I basically believe him, knowing deadlines are ambitious.
The free speech part also reads completely hollow when the guy's first actions were to ban his critics on the platform and bring back self avowed nazis - you could argue one of those things are in favor of free speech, but generally doing both just implies you are into the nazi stuff.
You're complaining about tweets and meanwhile he's saving astronauts and getting us to the moon. Wake up man.
Having the general ability to accomplish something doesn't magically infer integrity, you doing what you say does. Misleading and dissembling about doing what you say you will do is where you get the untrustworthy label, regardless of your personal animus or positive view of Musk.
