The goal is to create hundreds of specialized coding and generative AI agents. 'It should be possible to simulate [Microsoft] entirely with AI,' Musk says.

How is the quoted statement made without realizing Twitter is much more simple than everything Microsoft produces?

Musk is a real fucking prick, isn't he?

Can't wait for the year of the vibe coded OS.

It should be possible to simulate Musk entirely with AI.

Give me some exlax and some audio recording gear and I can get you an Elon sound board in about an hour.

Heeeeey that was MY idea. Not the AI agent part, the name part.

Red Alert 2 also had one it's called MassiveSoft & I think the CEO/Chairman was called Bing😂

chairman bingman, that was helping the allies, after the mind control incidents.

Yup, was in the Yuri's Revenge expansion.

[–] LuxSpark@lemmy.cafe 10 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I still have no idea what they’re trying to simulate.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 10 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Microsoft. The whole company.

[–] LuxSpark@lemmy.cafe 15 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Whoa, they can clone companies with AI? I’m going to ask ChatGPT to make me an Amazon.

Mecha Hitler backer of AfD, and "Pardon Derek Chauvin to instigate riots so that we can finally genocide the blacks in America" is hurting auto sales for Tesla.

Stock price is still very high, because self driving could work (it's late, behind competition, and underwhelming), humanoid robots could work. He's also been doing BS transactions between companies he controls to inflate both stock (private market) values, and that BS could expand to Tesla.

There are several problems with this announcement:

  1. it is a distraction because every other objective is failing. There needs to be a new moonshot announced so that you don't dump Tesla shares, because you should trust him this time that the new moonshot will be achieved.

  2. Copying Office 365, or improving it, will have new/different bugs for a long time. Unclear why anyone would buy it if the main reason it's still used is legacy dependencies that worked around any current bugs.

  3. MSFT spying will be (naively) trusted more than MechaHitler spying. Corporate AI in service to US military supremacy and Skynet control over the world is bad for Americans too. Future AI acceptance will not be US mega tech led acceptance. A marketing fight over which company hates Americans the most will harm both brands.

  4. OpenOffice is pretty good for free. An open source local toolchain can add trusted AI integration.

tbf, Microsoft's shit is so fucked up, glitchy, and difficult to use that this might actually be possible

[–] TwinTitans@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago

More nonsense being blown out of his ass.
