“I am more excited to figure out how we can charge people a lot of money for a really great automated software engineer or other kind of agent than I am making some number of dimes with an advertising-based model.”

Some people will argue this isn't replacing humans, just creating additional jobs for AI, and the human ones are safe. Somehow, I doubt it.

Also, Meta & Google are hardly making 'dimes' from selling advertising.

Good try Sam. You’re on the right track. But, if you really want to be hated more than Elon, you’re going to have to sprinkle in some racism and other bigotry. And, add some historically revisionist dictator worship. Elon’s got the Nazi angle and Mark has creepy Roman. Maybe, you can go Egyptian pharaoh?

French monarchs are woefully underepresented by sociopathic wannabes.
