bit of a combo-sneer this morning
CNBC put out an article uncritically repeating yet another round of lieboy pulling the exact same shit. I don't recognize the authors immediately, not sure if they're typical bootlickers or not
openai is going in hard, hiring ex-NSA person that was appointed by the walking talk racist mop (via dan gillmor). for the .... safety role! ah yes, I'm sure we'll all be so very surprised by this attempt consolidation of power.

This is all far-out stuff even for Musk, who is notorious for making ambitious promises to investors and customers that don’t pan out — from developing software that can turn an existing Tesla into a self-driving vehicle with an upload, to EV battery swapping stations.
yeah, fair call on that. I just live in hope that we can get to a point where “lying fucker with history of failures and grandiose statements has made another ridiculous grandiose statement probably composed of lies” can be the actual type of headline, instead of this constant simping bullshit
Or just, you know, not write a headline on that in the first place? Who the fuck is in a dire need to know the last stupid thing a pathological liar said?
