But he dresses in Roman armor and was in an Iron Man film, how is he not cool?

You’d think he would’ve learned after the time his prodding caused it to start responding to every question by talking about “white genocide in South Africa”.
Or they Mecha-Hitler debacle.
Who am I kidding. If Elon were capable of learning from his mistakes he wouldn’t keep spending billions of dollars on rockets with a lower success rate than what NASA was doing 60 years ago.
And Elon’s now going with the “it was hackers” excuse.
“Adversarial prompting”? That is not the great excuse he seems to think.
At least it does confirm his confession that he’s an idiot.
Do you really think Starship is a failure? The program went through a really rough patch for flights 7, 8, and 9, and the pad failure of ship 36; I myself was starting to become doubtful. But things seemed to bounce back with 10 and 11.
I wouldn’t trust my life to one.
No one would at this point; that is why they have these things called test programs.
And there’s no amount of money any sane person would take to be on one of those test flights.
Outsourcing the space program to billionaire manchildren was a mistake.
I thought SLS/ Orion/ Artemis was our national space program.
The Artemis 3 lander is supposed to be a Starship variant.
Edited: Ah, nevermind. I see there was an update to the Grok post. I ran it through ChatGPT per your question above, and basically it said it was a hagiography written by a bot, but I see that Elon has now walked back the bot’s actions. And since we’re on the subject, Chat GPT doesn’t completely buy the explanation that only adversarial prompting generated that response.
Adversarial prompting? The smartest man in the world didn’t anticipate that possibility? What is genius coming to?
He never learned: you don’t buy declarations of genius, you only ever rent them
How many times have we all read those various lists of “Mistakes I will not make when I become an evil genius.”? Pretty much every item on those lists can be meta-ed to “When I am an evil genius I will not let hubris overtake my judgment.”
Guess what: It always does. As we see in the present case.
So apparently Elon thinks of his AI as being exactly like the computers Captain Kirk used to talk to death: so fragile that a couple of sentences can derail/destroy them.
Nice product, Elon!
Twitter now shows users’ country of origin on their account page.
The magas are flipping out after discovering that their favorite influencers are all Third World bot accounts.
This is a peculiar move by Musk. Peculiar and funny. I’m not seeing his motive though, which I naturally assume isn’t altruistic.
Selling the ability to make your bots look as if they come from the USA?
For only $9.95 per month, change your location to the USA or suitable western country you’re trying to undermine. Too low?
The Grok replies were funny. I just watched Future Man and it is exactly like the James Cameron episode!
