So stupid that I can't even tell if an Onion article is real or not.

Shut the fuck up, Elon. Can't you just quietly enjoy being the richest person on Earth?

The wealth was meaningless without the attention.

If I had his money I'd be 24/7 inventing cool things for myself and wife and friends to experience. This guy has a fundamental need to be the loudest person in the room and to embroil himself into anything and everything. I would almost feel sorry for him - his life has got to really suck so bad and he can't fix it. So instead he goes off on 100 projects that make no sense or fall apart. There's stuff I can't wrap my head around like - why ditch LIDAR when it's absolutely the answer ? You just know his convoluted brain is so full of mess that if you were offered a deal with the devil to get all his money on the condition that you got trapped in his meat grinder of a mind... you'd turn down the offer.

if i had elon money, I'd fix SO many problems with the world. Not least of which the homeless problem. But that's exactly why I'll never have billions.

Software, as far as I can tell, solves no real problems anymore and can be as baroque, rococo, and absurd as you want because the hardware is massively powerful and cheap.

To be fair it's not like support could get worse...

Just fucking install linux jfc

I just watched something earlier that showed a clip of him saying how he was warning everyone early on about the dangers of AI because he was genuinely scared of the harm it could do.

Glad he’s not a hypocrite or anything.

Fuck off musk, you probably don’t even know where that came from.

Disgusting

Macrohard, which he ain't because of that botched surgery.

If he pours enough billions of dollars into it this could be the most epic software project disaster of all time.

This guy gives me second-hand embarrassment for humanity.

[–] moseschrute@lemmy.ml 8 points 3 days ago

If it weren’t for the power usage, I’d say let’s see how this plays out. Would be funny to watch it implode and maybe VCs would finally realize AI sucks.

[–] timewarp@lemmy.world 21 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Given Microsoft is having people locked up opposed to genocide, I hope they destroy each other.
