"Musk has been outspoken about his concerns around AI. During the keynote on Thursday, he called the technology his biggest fear."
Anyone still worshipping this cock bagel needs his head examined.

Fans of the Musk will just move the goalposts. "Only Elon can save us from the AI, he has to have his own good AI to fight the bad AI" or whatever.

If you actually listen to what Musk said, and I know you don't and wouldn't, he is clear in his view of AI - it is danger to humanity, we shouldn't do it, there is no stopping doing it now, solving alignment problem is the only way humanity makes it, ideologically captured entities like Google and OpenAI actively teaching AI to lie to have it produce desired outputs is dangerous, producing benevolent AI could only be achieved by commitment to factual and non-slanted training/approach and this is why Musk is doing it.
You don't have to agree with Musk views on this, but his view is consistent and coherent.

Elon taught me not to listen to Elon, by lying repeatedly.

So far so good, in that Grok says he's a shitheel.

He's at least as competent as AI is. There is one thing we know, if :Leon says something that turns out to be true, it's an accident or coincidence. We know this because humans have evolved to have reasoning abilities. We learn so we can predict. Even you likely have it, too bad you use it in bad faith.

Which of your recent predictions turned out to be accurate? Don't bother enumerating the list, it is too short for that.

You mean like he's trying to do with Grok [yahoo.com]? The one which recently said he, Leon, was one of the greatest purveyors of misinformation on Twitter [fortune.com]?

Bullshit. He is repeatedly inconsistent in his views whether his claim of "free speech" (which he routinely violtates by banning people who say mean things about him or truthfully report stories abut him) or his blocking of a dossier on J.D. Vance [washingtonpost.com] (despite his previous whining about Hunter Biden). He can't even give a straight answer on whether he is in this country illegally.
The only thing he is consistent on is whining.

Apply a modicum of critical thinking. If Musk was in US illegally, there would be a huge political win for Democrats to deport him and they would have done that a long time ago. More so, if Musk was in US illegally, how do you think he passed vetting that he had to go through for SpaceX get military contracts?

OP didn't ask that question, he commented on Musk's refusal to address it. You should "apply a modicum of critical thinking."

False. That's your tribalism speaking. It's Republicans that think that harming the enemy is a "huge political win".
"...and they would have done that a long time ago."
Apply a modicum of critical thinking! INS is NOT a wing of the Democratic Party. You could say more clearly that you're MAGA.
"...how do you think he passed vetting that he had to go through for SpaceX get military contracts?"
Jared Kushner got security clearance, Trump committed espionage. And why do you think Musk would be vetted, what evidence do you have that he "had to go through" ANYTHING other than it's useful to your moronic narrative?

Nobody buying "just asking question" shtick. It was a smear.

You know, just like those completely innocent questions about where President Obama was born. Of course when Obama didn't engage those rumors it was appropriate and good. But when Musk ignores similar questions that's because he's a shady individual with something to hide.
byskam240 ( 789197 ) writes:
Except Obama did address where he was born and even furnished a birth certificate over it https://www.youtube.com/watch?... [youtube.com] . Just because he didnt bother every single time it was brought up doesnt mean he didnt address it.
Nice attempt at using a false narrative for deflection though!

Not in a political situation. If some DA could make a career by prosecuting Musk, they absolutely would. Musk might still win, but the case would have played out in media, causing him reputational damage, as intended.

Uh, I can think of at least one recent, high-profile case where prosecution turned a political figure into a martyr who their base rallied around, eventually propelling them to electoral success.

It's a federal crime, so there's nothing a DA could do.
The US government could go after Musk, of course, and revoke his citizenship. But denaturalization is a severe penalty for what might be a simple misunderstanding or filing error. So historically, that has only been used in severe cases, like war criminals and people who lied about things like murder convictions.
In the first Trump administration, Stephen Miller set up an entire effort to find people to denaturalize and report. SCOTUS cut that down a bit

It's gonna be tough for anybody to up the ante on reputational damage to Musk, what with him firing everything he's got at that particular target every time he starts babbling publicly.

Meh, the Democrats are mature adults, unlike some of their more colourful opponents, or the noisy children posting hateful comments on /. and other social media.
And the claim was that Musk was working in the US without a permit, when he was on a student visa. Probably true. But that was not treated very seriously then, or now.

Don't forget 1) Musk has removed several factual community notes about himself, and 2) he has multiple sockpuppet accounts. What a choad.

Yes, Grok severely criticizing Musk is clearly evidence that Musk has manipulated Grok as to what it can say.
bydfghjk ( 711126 ) writes:
Musk and Trump are the same person, and a core characteristic of them is that everything is projection. When Musk says that his enemies are teaching AI to lie, what he means is that he teaches AI to lie. When he says that his enemies are trampling free speech, he means he's trampling it. Musk, like Trump, constructs his lies out of his own experiences, he is not a creative man.
So is his view on AI "consistent and coherent"? Who knows? Who cares? Musk is a pathological liar, you don't know what his vie

Talk about projection much. You are extremely brainwashed by liars who are calling them liars. You are focused on their personality instead of specificity because the lies don't exist. Look into anything said about them further than a biased news anchor and you find they are telling the truth at a much great percentage than the news anchor or redditor calling them a liar. Imagine you have a place where disagreeing is completely disallowed, but they don't allow you to mention that disagreeing is disallowed -
