Elon Musk just offered to buy OpenAI for $97.4 billion
-
I really hope he tanks Open AI.
-
-
i think this is old spice admitting that xAI is total bullshit
Well, to be 100% fair, it's all total bullshit.
-
The best and most affordable way for Elon Musk to "make the world a better place" would be to drop dead.
-
What is this? An OpenAI for ants?
-
Unfortunately, looks like buying Twitter was a very effective choice if you take profit off the priority list
-
I mean, yeah. That was the entire point of him buying it: to control one of the biggest social media networks ever, and to use that to push and pull the public discourse however he wanted, in the interest of being a kingmaker. And it fucking worked.
-
I will be shocked if he uses his own money for this. He just got a ton of backdoors into the treasury department, remember? That was just last week.
-
Coma did you say?
-
and sadly, the amount of people who use chatgpt to try and get factual information, is quite high... which makes this even more terrifying. It's about systematically gaining control of communication and information.
-
It'll work this time. He just has to be even shittier about it. /s
-
Altman responded on twitter with
no thank you but we will buy twitter for $9.74 billion if you want
That's way less than Musk paid but maybe still high.

His net worth is NOT how much money he is net positive. All his net worth means, is he has hundreds of billions of assets, it says nothing for the debt load he is holding onto, nor how much of his assets are already leveraged. With how throughly he has obliterated xitters ad income when it was being sold because investors were unhappy with ad income already being too low, it looks like ol Elon might have found a sure fire way to turn a billion into a million, and somehow people keep loaning him money... Have they checked who else has their financial interests vested in assets he "owns" or when you have that much stuff do they just assume no one else is using it for collateral... Just be interesting if suddenly his entire fortune went up with a puff of smoke because the debt load was too high and one of his investments went further sour causing a cascade similar to a short squeeze, just encapsulated entirely on elon musk and his assets being liquidated...

I'd take $5M of government funding and make similar progress. Yo DOGE, call me.
-
I thought he only barely pulled off the Twitter deal at $40B, now he's going 2x+x that much?
-
"NaziAI" has a real ring to it.
-
Saudis were happy to bankroll it to kill the main organisation platform behind the Arab Spring uprisings
-
Ah so he's again going to pay twice the amount of what it's worth to then run of off a cliff and make it worth 20% of it's real value within a years time?
Seriously, why do people still believe anything this scammer says?
-
Because if you believe it's worth $97B you don't offer to overpay by $3B...
