Fuck off musk, you probably don’t even know where that came from.

Disgusting

I just watched something earlier that showed a clip of him saying how he was warning everyone early on about the dangers of AI because he was genuinely scared of the harm it could do.

Glad he’s not a hypocrite or anything.

Macrohard, which he ain't because of that botched surgery.

If he pours enough billions of dollars into it this could be the most epic software project disaster of all time.

Will they be self playing, crash and burn a lot too, maybe nice angular jutting out corners, made from stainless steel, be called the CyberStation 👍

Given Microsoft is having people locked up opposed to genocide, I hope they destroy each other.

If it weren’t for the power usage, I’d say let’s see how this plays out. Would be funny to watch it implode and maybe VCs would finally realize AI sucks.

Software, as far as I can tell, solves no real problems anymore and can be as baroque, rococo, and absurd as you want because the hardware is massively powerful and cheap.
