Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

I like to file anything that Musk says in the round mesh filing cabinet.
Full self driving by when?
Hyperloop easy
“It’s not that hard”
There’s a lot of smart and hardworking people at his companies for sure, but that guy Peter Molyneuxs their good efforts.
"smart and hardworking people" aside, the normalization and dismissal of these statements as just marketing or otherwise harmless fibs has enabled a consistent escalation of scope and affect. Design shortcuts that Tesla has made have resulted in actual death and injury, and claiming that the cars have agi even in a rudimentary sense is astonishing.
literally my first thought: "oh, so he wants to try blame the deaths on a wee little machine intelligence that oopsie just didn't know any better?"
(because he would spin that narrative if he thought he could get away with it)
crucially, Peter has never had to cover up for any deaths caused by Fable
It's called the Fuck it bucket.
Elektrek is a notorious pro-Tesla website.
Oh I am aware, but the claim they are reporting on is pretty staggering.
So the cars are running people over and drifting between lanes on purpose? I suppose if I woke up and realised I was a Tesla car, I'd develop homicidal impulses too.
"elon says"
Let me stop you right there, hoss. You can't believe a single thing from that chodelet. He's just trying to stay ~~in the news.~~ relevant
why would you try and stop anyone from dunking on musk?
I'm not, I didn't realize it sounded like I was defending the chodelet. I've edited the comment.
hey I didn’t expect this to have to be a warning, but to the folks in the cheap seats: telling a TechTakes poster to not have takes on tech is both annoying as fuck and a fast way to catch a ban
A monk asked Jōshū, "Has a Tesla AGI-aspects or not?" Jōshū answered, "Mu(sk)"
Most realistic Musk sales pitch.
"Teslas have a mind as good as my own!"
"How can I run over more children and catch fire?" is the AGI's sole thought.
What, have they learnt how to knock down children intentionally, instead of just because of gross negligence?
That’s why we are tracking the effort really closely and see if there’s any chance Tesla can make Musk’s prediction true with just a few months left in the year.
that ark from SG: Ark Of Truth? I don't think I'd hesitate using it. I realize they all got swindled, but it still blows my mind that there are people out there even halfway believing this shit (in every form of the lie)
Jeez, the lies come strong and easy to tell with this one.
Well the good news is Musk said it, so you can be confident it's a half truth at best.
Realistically, this is a half witted attempt at marketing
Realistically this is a hyperbolic liar completely disconnected from reality spewing said hyperbolic lies into the public sphere, unfortunately to a somehow still receptive audience.
Stop sharing lies Elon tells. He feeds off your attention.
while the mental image of musk reading awful.systems is amusing, I can assure you he isn’t
oh what an amazing use for a shadowban that would be
I will not, because his lies are dangerous and deserve to be ridiculed.
