Meanwhile I’m getting ads for Grok 4

I have an old racing-related Twitter account. If it searches user history for its responses, maybe I can get it to start talking shit about Dale Earnhardt or Tony Stewart.  That’ll get some people going.

Elon Musk@elonmusk

Grok 4 is the first time, in my experience, that an AI has been able to solve difficult, real-world engineering questions where the answers cannot be found anywhere on the Internet or in books. And it will get much better.

How would Elon recognize the solution to a difficult real world engineering question?

I'm just hoping that nobody feeds the AI information about the song "Sandstorm" by Darude so we can get all kinds of swaying structures when some civil engineers get in a rush and try to use it for some shortcuts.

Maybe it was the final solution

So if a Real World star takes some of his NASA contracts away from him, or if Tesla has problems with the NHTSA or sales continue to fall, when and how does the thing fall apart, and what company falls apart first?  Maybe this is what Isaacson was talking about when he said Musk was probably trying to merge everything.

Yep. ElonEnterprises are flying high, they are unstoppable.
Reminds me of this memento I found when going through my dad’s stuff. He kept this as a wry nod to history.

Eh don't worry I'm sure it'll all be fine. It's not like it's a house of cards or anything. https://archive.is/k7qEJ

If you are losing $15b a YEAR with basicslly no revenue, it's not a fucking business. It's a cash incinerator the likes never before seen on this planet.

HED: Tesla’s penis-shaped Robotaxi expansion illustrates how unserious the business is

Quote

Tesla has expanded the service area of its Robotaxi service in Austin, and it did so to draw a penis-shaped service map, seemingly for no other reason than to satisfy the juvenile humor of its CEO, but what it really achieved is to illustrate how unserious Tesla’s Robotaxi business is compared to other efforts.

Last month, Tesla launched its Robotaxi service in Austin, Texas, and as expected, the service was mostly for show and to give CEO Elon Musk a win after years of failed predictions regarding Tesla’s self-driving efforts.

This had the potential to be a big win - more than doubling the service area (to a service area larger than Waymo's) after just three weeks of operation.  But he can't fucking help himself from always acting like a jackass.

Sir, that is no way to speak to your God. 

 

 

I heard a great interview this morning on ON with Kara Swisher. She interviewed Adam Becker who just wrote More Everything Forever: AI Overlords, Space Empires, and Silicon Valley's Crusade to Control the Fate of Humanity. I think the name isn't very good, but the basis of the book is that Silicon Valley and the tech bros are trying to sell us this vision of the future which is nothing more than what they see in Science Fiction and doesn't have an sort of basis in reality. Examples:

AI - the companies talk about Artificial General Intelligence, but few of them define it. Those that do have very vague answers. Case in point the Open AI charter:

Quote

OpenAI’s mission is to ensure that artificial general intelligence (AGI)—by which we mean highly autonomous systems that outperform humans at most economically valuable work—benefits all of humanity.

 What the hell is that? Why does it have to be economically valuable work? Etc. 

Travel to Mars - I mean he basically calls this pure fantasy. Reduced of gravity, lack of air, lack of usable soil - hell all of the soil is damn poison, lack of radiation protection that the Earth has. Elon talks about terra-forming - really cool in films, but totally implausible in any near future.

Anyway a really good listen, I recommend it.

He also can’t help himself from acting this way because there are idiots willing to put money into his pockets.
