Elon Musk has found himself at the center of controversy after being accused of using a "booster" service to elevate his character to level 97 in Path of Exile 2. The allegations came to light following a 32-minute video released by popular streamer Asmongold, who delved into the claims of "cheating" by Musk. Rumors suggest that Musk might have either purchased a high-level character or had someone else level it up for him in-game. The video highlighted the significant time commitment required to reach level 97, prompting questions about how Musk could manage this alongside his responsibilities at SpaceX, Tesla, and X.
Further scrutiny arose when viewers noted that during Musk's streams, he appeared unfamiliar with the game's mechanics, which seemed inconsistent with someone who had supposedly leveled a character from zero to 97.

In response to Asmongold's video, Musk took to social media, humorously suggesting that he too "needs to coordinate with the boss." He also implied that Asmongold had to consult with a team of editors before publishing content on the X network. Asmongold quickly clarified that he does not have a boss and that any editors he works with are employed by him, a common practice among YouTube and Twitch streamers to streamline content creation.
Asmongold pointed out that Musk's comments only served to highlight his lack of understanding of the behind-the-scenes processes involved in content creation.
