When you're such a loser in a way than you can't sustain regular human interaction on levels and you have digitalized as data and applied to IA

Employees that were assigned as AI tutors were instructed to sign release forms granting xAI “a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, sub-licensable, royalty-free license” to use, reproduce, and distribute their faces and voices, as part of a confidential program code-named “Project Skippy.” The data would be used to train Ani, as well as Grok’s other AI companions.

According to the Journal, some employees balked at the demand, concerned that their faces or likeness could be sold to other companies or used in deepfake videos. The employees were put off by the chatbot’s sexual demeanor and its likeness to a waifu. But they were told that the collection of their data was “a job requirement to advance xAI’s mission.”

Don't forget Musk has had people dress up and pretend to be AI powered robots to boost hist stock...

And Bezos tried an "no employee grocery run by AI" that was really a bunch of Indians watching cameras...

This shit ain't ready, but we're burning the planet down for it so no billionaires misses if any ever figure out how profit off it

Capitalism is no way to run a society, at any scale.
