I made that joke when I was 13 years old...
what makes you think fElon isn't 13 years old too?
Good luck to Musk then. Was listening to a cybersec podcast on my morning dog walk and one of the stories was about the amount of security flaws that can be created with AI coding machines. Unless you're aware of the language, exploits, weaknesses etc. etc.
What a dumbass. Every time he opens his smarmy gob these days he makes himself seem dumber every time.
It's the drugs, the sycophants, and the power.
He's completely lost touch and has gone full megalomaniac.
"Oh, yes, chief, creating a giant bowl of cheese is so original, you're a genius", a sycophant.
"God. I'm a god", Musk.
"Yes, chief, you're a god", a sycophant.
"I'm so amazing that people think I'm a god", musk.
I think there's a touch of cognitive decline happening, too. Or like a serious brain injury.
Macrohard, another very funny joke from Elon's brilliant mind.
I’m so tired of this idiot ass fucking dystopia.
I agree. Why can't we have a dystopia where we have neon gangs with wicked aesthetics that are armed with fully automatic firearms purchased from a vending machine outside a liquor store.

It should be possible for a car to not run over people, too. That seems like a more pressing computing issue.
MACROHARD, GET IT???
I'm hilarious and edgy, so my cars can kill a few people, as a treat.

Sounds like something a teenager would come up with - this is exactly what I'd expect Musk to do
It is literally a joke I made in high school, ~25 years ago.
He’s such a loser.

It is. Dial-up nerds have been calling Microsoft exactly that online for literal decades at this point. He's not even original.

Dude claims he can code. I want to see him personally make Doom run on a Tesla.
“In principle, given that software companies like Microsoft do not themselves manufacture any physical hardware, it should be possible to simulate them entirely with AI,” he added.
Ummm, is someone going to tell him about the Xbox, Surface devices, and the entire Azure infrastructure they built.
And the Zune. Don't forget the Zune!
I loved my Zune
Musk just announces this shit to look like he's doing something so the investors don't flee. If anything is actually delivered it will be forgettable and he will have moved on to the next thing he can hype.
It's that or he's trying to get Microsoft to give Grok a more prominent role on their platform and this is how he thinks he can active that.
How the stack of cards hasn't fallen down yet is head scratching and I'd love to know what business is actually using Grok for something serious.
This is dumb on a different level
I remember back when I was a kid it was hard to convince people that wealth and success was not a matter of being better, smarter, or harder working - as we were told - but rather almost entirely a matter of luck. Thankfully, Elon Musk has shown many people the light that I could not. Thank you, Elon
To be fair there is one personal trait that's really important to wealth and success, the willingness to walk over the bodies of your peers.

Too many people are still convinced that Elon's wealth is attained through his hardwork alone.

If wealth was the inevitable result of hard work and enterprise, every woman in Africa would be a millionaire. The claims that the ultra-rich 1% make for themselves – that they are possessed of unique intelligence or creativity or drive – are examples of the self-attribution fallacy.

Musk is like a science experiment to see how cripplingly stupid you can make a nepo baby without them losing all their generational wealth, except it went in a fascinating new direction instead.
Jesus.... it's like watching these people cause a train wreck in slow motion, and we're on the train.

This guy tries so hard to be cool.
Vibe coded Operating System. And Office suite. And cloud offering. And Enterprise. And SaaS. And game console.

First thought: Well, usually i'd laugh, but it's microsoft, so this might actulally work
second thought: wait, Twitter also doesn't produce any hardware... why not start there?
Wait until Musk comes forward with the Macrohard GamerX series of consoles, to play AI slop games.

And here I thought the Windows 11 enshitification couldn't get worse.
Nobody should ever trust anything Musk wants them to install on their devices.

I've said it before, early on he should have become reclusive and hired PR people to filter his ideas out to his companies and the public, and he'd be considered a prodigy and genius and wouldn't have the self-induced failures he does. But that goes against his narcissistic personality, so it wasn't going to happen.
Annoys me that people sling "narcissist" at everyone they don't like, but damn, the man is hitting on all 8-cylinders for a diagnosis, and he only needs to hit 5:
-
Having a grandiose sense of self-importance, such as exaggerating achievements and talents, expecting to be recognized as superior even without commensurate achievements
-
Preoccupation with fantasies of success, power, beauty, and idealization
-
Belief in being "special" and that they can only be understood by or associated with other high-status people (or institutions)
-
Demanding excessive admiration
-
Sense of entitlement
-
Exploitation behaviors
-
Lack of empathy
-
Envy towards others or belief that others are envious of them Arrogant, haughty behaviors and attitudes [1]

So stupid that I can't even tell if an Onion article is real or not.
Microsoft is a very low bar tbh
oh man i'm so glad this musk slop ended up on my feed without any real critical comment or insight, just some shitty link and misleading headline
thanks OP
I think he is just upset that South Park didn't have a parody of him with a small dick, yet
