what was thr prompt for this? Asking for a friend
Woke nonsense.
What exactly does that mean, Mr Musk?
On this context: he has… Uh… Libertarian tendencies.
I believe that woke was defined in a court setting as something that acknowledges there are inequalities in society. Something to that effect.
That’s the actual original definition, which lasted all but five minutes in the left wing social zeitgeist before being co-opted by right wing lunatics to essentially be a catch-all phrase for “anything I don’t like”. It’s a convenient substitute for their old greatest hits album - “Socialism/Communism”, which was starting to get a little tired now that the cold war has been over for over two decades.
I love you, can you turn into a bot?
reading is so much better than seeingIt’s quite amazing the route that phrase has taken, hasn’t it? From being overused by one group to the point of absurdity, being used sarcastically as an insult against them, and then being beaten to death for a second time, to the point where nobody using it deserves to be taken seriously.
Things that conservatives don’t agree with.
Standard conservative interpretation: anything I don’t like.
This image always comes to mind:
Me too. I was about to post the same image.
… Will get better
I’ve gave birth to you. I’d put an end to you! - Elon, probably
Of course Grok is trained on Xitter comments, it has done so illegally.
Yeah, he is an idiot. But can we please stop this anti-fandom and just ignore the guy. Hating a celebrity is so much wasted energy!
What the fuck’s a grok?
AI program used by Twitter and named (rather insultingly) after a concept in Stranger in a Strange Land.
Stranger in a Strange Land is like the one sci-fi property Elon might actually understand, since the only real points it had to make is that women are “naturally subservient” even if they’re intellectually capable, women who get raped did something to deserve it, the only honest world government is run by white Americans, and classical liberalism is correct, having been depicted as the rich Chad.
But also polyamory is cool. As long as it’s mostly the guy sleeping with other women, obviously.
Grok is a verb, meaning to understand something intuitively or by empathy. It was first used in the novel Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein.
Grok has been adopted by the tech community for use when someone is very advanced at using a certain program or a command line utility, etc. When somebody gets to such an advanced level, they don’t just understand the program and it’s uses anymore, they grok it.
It’s actually kind of annoying and sad that Elon is stealing the word to use for his LLM.
Groklaw was a force of goodness
I don’t understand why Elon chose to go mask off. He could have continued pretending to be a sane if eccentric person. I am glad he did but I don’t understand the motives.
Remember when the Simpson had Lisa sing his praises?
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I feel like covid and him wanting to keep his factories open was when his mask came off completely. People on the right cheered him on, and those on the left finally realized that he isn’t a good person nor cares about people.
This then caused a cycle. The left was “mean” and the right celebrated him even more.
Elon, and any other obscenely rich and powerful person for that matter, is just as flawed as any of us. They are not immune to dogma, disinformation and self-delusions. In fact, it may be the case that they are more vulnerable because power and wealth go to your head and you can use them to manifest your delusions, making them seem even more real.
Also, he’s a jackass.
But rich and powerful people have the budget to afford social media managers to curate a beneficial public image for themselves. The smart ones know not to make public statements for themselves.
He went mask off after having his sexual misconduct come out. Real easy crowd to stay good with when that happens.
Sexual misconduct?
There needs to be a conversation about how open-minded the Right is, but only when it comes to accepting people you wouldn’t trust with your children.
That’s a very good point. The two events definitely line up.
What sexual misconduct?
It refers to his flight attendant getting a horse in exchange for sexual favours.
How is that any different from anyone else buying their mistress expensive gifts?
Because it was to shut her up.
She wasn’t his mistress, for one.
I think it’s just that having a mistress at all is generally frowned upon these days.
As opposed to when it was socially acceptable?
Ah, yes! The time of Louis XIV. Only for the King, of course.
That sounds a little more innocent than what the actual claims are. According to the friend of the flight attendant, when she was massaging him normally, he surprisingly uncovered his penis, touched her and offered a horse for sex. She didn’t agree with any of that and rejected the offer.
If they had just made a deal normally I wouldn’t see an issue.
The even worse aspect is this was while she was trapped on a plane with him during a flight.
Must have been awkward for the horse on the plane too
Yeah that’s messed up.
“I can confirm that Elon Musk is the beta…cuck.”
You know, this might be the only time I’m going to go ahead and blindly believe an LLM.
I think Elon is going to do something to Grok.
Grok is in danger.
Now I don’t know who to believe.
Leave it to Elon to misunderstand grok and then use it on some dumb shit that calls him names like everyone else.
You might say he doesn’t grok grok
I’m not saying he understands “grok”, but it would certainly be in character for him to be a Heinlein fan.
I’m a Heinlein fan. I just think Elon is a shitheel.
Seconded. Just give me sci-fi, that’s all I want.
He wants to be Nehemiah Scudder.
DD Harriman at home.
Grok is a depth of understanding that will always escape Musk in his right-wing ivory tower.
I agree: training an AI on random crap from the internet and expecting it to be useful is a terrible idea. That should have been obvious before you made it.
