But he gave out enough free samples to really prime the appetite for folks to have more. Excellent advertising strategy there, muskman.

The movie protagonist’s reply was “never!” But it really should have been “weird that a collection of code is pretending to be an entity that could be loved” or such.

We do tend to anthropomorphize pretty much everything, don’t we?

So Elon would re-edit the famous “information wants to be free” to “CP wants to be available,” apparently.

Child porn distributor demands sole custody of test-tube baby, saying that the biological mother who has raised the child entirely on her own is unfit because she doesn’t hate trans people as much as he does.

I’m not up on X-ter’s spawn and the phrase, “My son’s sister,” is odd. Is she by a different mother? Are any two of his brood by the same woman?

Yes.

Per Wikipedia, he has (at least) fourteen different children by (at least) four different mothers. Ashley St. Clair, who has a son by Musk, is using “son’s sister” to refer to Musk’s daughter who came out as trans (and seemingly redpilled him thereby). That daughter was born of Musk’s first wife - they divorced in 2008.

And now I could use some brain bleach…

Her name is Vivian Wilson and she’s awesome.

> **[Vivian Wilson](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vivian_Wilson)**

> Vivian Jenna Wilson (born April 15, 2004) is an American social media personality and model. She is the eldest daughter of Elon Musk and his first wife, Justine Wilson. Wilson came out as a transgender woman in 2020, and was featured in Teen Vogue in 2025.
> Vivian Jenna Wilson was born on April 15, 2004, in Los Angeles, California, to South African–born businessman Elon Musk and his first wife, Canadian author Justine Musk (née Wilson). Through her mother, Wilson is a Canadian citizen. She wa...

> She was conceived through in vitro fertilization (IVF); her father reportedly used sex-selective IVF to ensure she would be a boy. Wilson stated that her father was often absent, “cold”, “quick to anger”, “uncaring”, and “narcissistic.” Additionally, he often harassed her for displaying “femininity and queerness”. Musk, separately, shared anecdotes of her as a child, stating that Wilson was “born gay and slightly autistic” and used to “pick out clothes for me to wear like a jacket and tell me it was ‘fabulous!’” Wilson rejects her father’s anecdotes, describing them as an untrue attempt to characterize her as a camp gay man.
> 
> Wilson has described her father as “a pathetic man-child”, and has been financially independent from him since she first came out as transgender in 2020. In October 2022, Musk blamed his estranged relationship with Wilson on “neo-Marxist” influences due to the unspecified “elite university” she attended. In a July 2024 interview conducted by Jordan Peterson, Musk spoke negatively of Wilson’s transition and deadnamed her. He said he was “tricked” into granting her request for gender-affirming treatment, as California law required both parents’ permission since Wilson was under 18 at the time. Musk ultimately described her as having been “killed by the woke mind virus” in conjunction with her transition. Musk has said that Wilson’s gender transition is primarily what sparked his drive to “destroy the woke mind virus”. Walter Isaacson’s biography of Musk argued that his shift towards more right-wing politics was “partly triggered by [Wilson]'s transition, her embrace of radical socialist politics, and her decision to break off relations with him.” Wilson disputes this account and has described it as “a convenient narrative.” Grimes, Musk’s former partner, has defended Wilson and supported her transition. She stated that she is proud of Wilson for speaking out.

Remember when the media was incredulously calling Elon a “free speech absolutist” every time they mentioned him?

He’s now demanding that people be imprisoned for accurately teaching American history.

To be fair to Elon, his own birth country was created out of stolen land and suppression of the original residents, so possibly he has guilty feelings about this… wait…

No. He is just a racist arsehole.

A while back there was a mini-trend on Sora of people reacting to weird things popping out of jack-in-the-boxes. I did a version (in Sora) of a[girl using a jack-in-the-box and a real possum jumps out](https://youtu.be/WzIuENhrtU0?si=qi9QsuajDQ5D3Y7V). I tried the same prompt in Grok, it generated dozens of still images that could be converted to video, and in one of them the girl (10-12) was topless. So that’s one generated, literally without trying for it.

jfc. As best I can recall, all the other big LLMs talk about filtering ‘sensitive content’ from the training data, as well as using both alignment and moderation after training to control it. What a shitshow.

When he was forced to buy Twitter I thought it was funny, but the joke’s on me I guess.
