    The more he speaks, the more apparent it is that he had no idea what he is talking about.

    I substituted every single include into a single 166 000 line file and sent it. Grok froze :(

    Legends say that if you put your source code file in Grok, it’ll print out the code and it’ll land on Elon’s desk.

    Elon will browse through it and pretend to understand it, then tweet out insults and emojis and says you’re fired. Even though you were never employed by him anyway.

    I’ve been saying for a long time (since the 2010s tech boom). There’s needs to be a new term the public lexicon termed “poptech” or popular technology. In the same vein has popsci.

    The technology anyone knows anymore is oversimplified for general audiences. These days is almost always imparting wrong understanding.

    The industry has been rife with grifters. If people catch on then the bottomless pit of funding will become very shallow.

    Why the fuck can’t these assholes just go away?

    You’ve won life. We get it. Good for you. Why do you need more money? Why do you need to constantly be the center of attention?*

    It truly is just a handful of unscrupulous, malignant narcissists that have ruined everything (including the planet) for everyone else.

    *these are rhetorical questions

      I’d posit that they haven’t won and are fundamentally broken people seeking to fill a void that no amount of money could fill. I know for certain I could never attain this much wealth as I would stop way before tens of millions.

      If it is any consolation for anyone: He won’t be able to piss normally for the rest of his life.

          It’s a known side effect of Ketamine abuse that the complete urinary genital system gets inflamed. Guys basically having a continuous cystitis and much more for the rest of his life - and he confirmed that to some degree.

      No, that was a much larger group effort. You and me can’t wash our hands of it. Like, even if you ignore the majority of stuff they don’t own, we let them do that.

        Well said. We don’t like inequality, but when it comes to blame somehow we all get a “tax free” discount.

        Yes, they are awful people. They have more than enough money to live out their sickest fantasies and it’s still not enough for them. But they are - at least in part - a symptom of the way the rest of us live. We vote for a government that lets us forget our humanity, class consciousness and responsibility in place of overbearing capitalism. Only we can stop this.

        They’re playing life on god mode. But, they’re also very lonely. They drive away their original wives, who married them “before” (Bezos, and Gates). Their kids hate them. Everyone they come in contact with is paid in some way to be there. They have no real human connections. They’re surrounded by personal security staff 24/7. Also, Epstein just hung around the entrance to the rabbit hole. That hole goes deep, and I think we all know it.

          Maybe thats why they all love their ai. They can think it’s a human-like connection, and it wont leave them because they’re horrible ghouls. And if it disagrees they can just tell the coders to recode it.
