Live from New York, itâs Elon Musk. The tech mogul hosted âSaturday Night Liveâ this weekend and wasnât afraid to get personal in his monologue, revealing that he has Aspergerâs syndrome, a high-functioning condition on the autism spectrum. Social media was quick to point out that Elon actually isnât the first person with Aspergerâs to emcee âSNLâ â former cast member Dan Aykroyd has long been public about his diagnosis and hosted the show back in 2003 â and that the term is considered outdated in the autism community. Despite the controversy, the 49-year-old appeared to have fun showing off his sense of humor and acknowledging that many found him to be an unconventional choice for the âSNLâ stage.
