    Assuming we correct course and stop our spiral into authoritarianism in 4 years, we’re going to have to completely rebuild our entire federal tech infrastructure. It simply can’t be trusted after these traitors. The possibility of backdoors is simply too high. It’s going to cost billions and billions of dollars.

    We’re all going to need new Social Security numbers, because this dumbfuck now has them all on his private servers.

    Are they going to outsource data entry to india? All AI “benefits” are almost solely derived from outsourcing.

    Who am I kidding, this is probably just a scheme to get the government to pay for “Grok” which might as well be a word that means “garbage”

      I’d rather fight the machines than the next 4 years of Trumple Thinskin and his muskrat.

    You generally won’t understand another person (and adversary especially) if you don’t see how their actions perfectly make sense for them, and without conspiracies.

    So - there is one matching variant, that Musk sincerely hates bureaucratic kinds of power, but not proprietary kinds of power. Replacing a bureaucrat with (some imagined good) AI in another assumption would be replacing a mediocre human with inherent lust for power with an unreliable automaton, but without lust for power. The good part here is that humans are unreliable too and working bureaucracies compensate for that.

    The bad part is that for every failure a person should be responsible proportionally to their input. I’m not sure they’ll do that, or I’m sure they won’t.

    They want this so they can blame the computer when it makes a bad decision which is actually just parroting what they want

      And even with all the hallucinating AI does it would still make more sense than whatever they are doing.

    Is there anyone else out there that refuse to call them by that stupid fucking name? It’s like buying into a teenaged 4chan-dwelling edgelord’s sad joke.

    It only fuels their dumb bullshit.
