    My grandpa loved shouting social security codes with their names, can you please do that while celebrating like he used to?

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

    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.

      That would make sense if corporate bureaucracy was not bureaucracy. But it is.

        Yes, but corporate bureaucracy is someone’s property, so ultimately there is a responsible person, always.

    I bet it conveniently comes with a contract for xai. By a complete coincidence and definitely not more criminal behavior.

        Any important department will them to fuck off with the A.I., but Medicare patients will be stuck with it. It’s a slow moving disaster that any average person sees coming.

        I tried that recently on the Gemini 2.0 flash and it got it wildly wrong as well. Seems strange AI seems to struggle with it.

            Ironically, a lot of stock trading already is done by bot, it’s a problem from a while ago. Not LLM, of course, much simpler but it’s why it sometimes goes hive mind.

    I like AI, but it definitely isn’t ready for something so important as governance.

    Which is why it is perfect for DOGEbags: They want to break everything, and just say the AI is at fault. Odds are that they will blame gay furry hackers for trying to ruin everything.

        I know you’re joking, but it’s really dangerous to assume your enemy is an idiot. He isn’t stupid, he’s evil. If he were stupid he would not be the richest man in the world clawing still more gold into his hoard.

          No, stop.

          You are conflating wealth with intelligence.

          Do you know how easy it is to have money multiply itself in high enough quantities? It’s hard to overstate just how difficult it would be to have the wealth of Elon Musk and somehow not make money. You would have to make several multi-million dollar bad investments per day for decades, and even then, you’re still not likely to run out of cash any time soon. If Elon Musk did absolutely nothing for the rest of his life (and god, we could only hope) the interest and dividends his wealth passively generates for him would be enough for all of his children and grandchildren to live lavishly luxurious lives.

          Elon is not a genius. He’s actually a complete fucking moron who got very, very lucky and has excellent timing. If it were not for the success of PayPal in the early dotcom days, we would never have heard from this guy again.

          He actually is really quite dumb

          The thing is, he is a really good liar, and does know how to hype people. Those are just about his only two qualities, but that too is where it ends.

          Look at videos from up to a decade ago, it’s all lies and hyping but anytime he actually talks about something technical it really shows just how stupid his brain really is.

          He’s also evil, I won’t contest that, but he really isn’t intelligent

    I work with a team of very talented AI and ML folks. I think it works quite well in certain usecases. These are not they.
