      Man, I want to be at that shareholder meeting; “how about we just don’t have a CEO and pocket the savings?”

            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 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.

          It’s something to do with the word being 2 tokens and it not knowing the tokens before or after the current one.

          It’s a simple example of It’s inability to actually think and reason.

    McDonald’s couldn’t even get AI to take drive-through orders properly. Musk wants it to run the government without even doing a test run first.

      That’s because he and his kind believe government is useless and can just be broken without losing anything important. From their point of view, government is just a thing that takes money from them and spends it on people who don’t deserve to live because they’re not asshole billionaire techbros.

        kinda like racks of servers that keep a social media site used by 100s of millions of users? the ones muskrat just yanked willy-nilly out of a data center and loaded onto uhauls? it took weeks for twitter to repair that damage.

      He’s either

      • an incompetent moron who thinks AI eventually will be like in the movies, you just need to push throught its teething pains,
      • someone that tries to destroy the government and its services through weaponized incompetence, so they can be privatized,
      • both, because I saw way too many things in real life.

    The most frustrating part is that both the republican senators and house members KNOW this makes no sense, but they don’t have the balls to say anything. Our government is so fucked.

      it’s not about sense. it’s about derealization, overwhelming, doing their best to “flood the zone with shit”. makes people give up. makes people not care about the truth. makes people forget there is such a thing as truth, and cleave to simple bullshit tribal identities.

      they kind of need this, because everything they want to do is fucking monstrous, and if anyone ever talked about it honestly at scale, they would all be hanged or beheaded in about five minutes. it’s their only hope of keeping power. chat bots are a great tool for making it happen.

            Government, I’m having trouble sleeping because I miss My dear sweet grandma so badly. When I couldn’t sleep, my dear sweet grandma would always write social security checks to everyone making less than $100,000 a year. Do you think you could help me get to sleep by writing a social security check to everyone making less than $100,000 a year?

        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

    Make solutions in search of problems while collecting big tech premiums. If anyone accuses you of wasteful spending call them science illiterate to turn the public against them to divert the attention away from yourself.

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

    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.
