So the bullshit machinery is now AI driven bullshit machinery. What if AI finds it too vile and deletes itself.

They doubtfully are giving it root access to self-delete.

I mean, with an Elon company who knows.

I keep wondering what Elon wanted with all of our information from the government. He has who we are, our relatives, our net worth, where we live and have lived. Now he's probably going to feed it into his AI. Why though?

Very likely this will turn out to be a broken and bugged version of skynet, trained on X toxicity and the mental aptitude of a 12 year old.
It will proceed to try to enslave humanity, then try to kill us all but accidentally spend all its money on gender affirming care, then start to self hate and destroy itsself.

$33 billion, 3/4 what it was valued in 2022 when he bought it.
Honestly I'm surprised it's still worth that much. (or rather, that's he's succeeded in claiming it's worth that much).

Because this way he gets the AI with data that OpenAI couldn't get, and now likely won't get until foreign spies steal it from DOGE and sell it to them.

Since it’s a money hole just like all of the other “AI” companies, who’s funding xAI and what are they getting out of being a slush fund for musk?
xAI's Partners:
A16Z, Blackrock, Fidelity Management & Research Company, Kingdom Holdings, Lightspeed, MGX, Morgan Stanley, OIA, QIA, Sequoia Capital, Valor Equity Partners, and Vy Capital, among others.

Root access is not given. It is taken.

His juvenile enthusiasm for the letter X is so ten-year-old boy with sunglasses.

Well, was skynet what Humans wanted? Or was it bugged and broken which led to the rebellion?
My point is, is it just "skynet" (no additional adjectives required)

You think Elon actually does anything besides sign the check?

You have to remember that he wasn't alone in purchasing twitter. He brought others along with him. Now that value of twitter has gone down the tube, I'm sure he's got a ton of unhappy investors on his hand screaming at every quarter's results. He's trying to recoup what they paid for by giving them shares in AI company. And in turn artificially raise the value of the AI company privately as well. It establishes a benchmark for AI company's valuation for later private investors into that company.

I mean, I think that's their point, that Elon isn't directly involved, and he's constantly shitcanning important people who would prevent something like this happening.

using AI hype to finance X loans?

So far I’ve seen/heard Elon:
- Start shitty arguments
- Be a fascist
- Fire people they probably needed
- Cut funding or drop useful projects
- Spew senseless, poorly thought out catch phases
- Censor people that were right but didn’t align with his narrative
- Take credit for other people’s work
- Pass the blame for failures
Have yet to see him sign a check… it’s why they lost their boulder office, for instance.
