One of the thing Elon Musk was a founder of, with Sam Altman and a plethora of others, was OpenAi. They're of course known for ChatGPT. Elon stepped away from the company in 2018..then attempted to buy it for 100million. The company flourished after he left.

He really wants it back. He recently tried to partner with Zuckerberg to buy it, and has tried several legal angles, unsuccessfully. But he mostly takes childish shots at Sam.

Musk made a kiddie porn generator, and is stuggling to keep it from doing what he made.
Quote:
Business Insider verified the existence of multiple written requests for CSAM from what appeared to be Grok users, including requests for short stories that depicted minors in sexually explicit situations and requests for pornographic images involving children. In some cases, Grok had produced an image or written story containing CSAM, the workers said.
Quote:
"If a company is creating a model that allows nudity or sexually explicit generations, that is much more nuanced than a model that has hard rules," she said. "They have to take really strong measures so that absolutely nothing related to children can come out."
Quote:
"You have to have thick skin to work here, and even then it doesn't feel good," a former worker said. They said they quit this year over concerns about the amount of CSAM they encountered.
Quote:
"I listened to some pretty disturbing things. It was basically audio porn. Some of the things people asked for were things I wouldn't even feel comfortable putting in Google," said a former employee who worked on Project Rabbit.
"It made me feel like I was eavesdropping," they added, "like people clearly didn't understand that there's people on the other end listening to these things."
Quote:
It actually made me sick," one former worker said. "Holy ####, that's a lot of people looking for that kind of thing."

Maybe giving all of humanity the ability to create anything they want without guard rails wasn't such a great idea. I suppose they just under-estimated how truly depraved humanity is behind closed doors. Which is an odd thing to miss, considering what we see humanity doing with the doors wide open.

A duo of Tesla shareholder-influencers tried to complete Elon Musk’s coast-to-coast self-driving ride that he claimed Tesla would be able to do in 2017 and they crashed before making it about 60 miles.

Musk has been projecting for years. Combined with his proclivity for breeding I'd be more surprised if he wasn't involved on the island.

Bannon and Thiel are evil pigs.

Had heard how gross Elon's dad Errol was, but had no idea the depth of his depravity.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...se-accusations
Quote:
Judging from court records, personal correspondence, social workers and interviews with family members, the Times said the earliest accusation against Errol Musk was in 1993, when his four-year-old stepdaughter told relatives he had touched her at the family house.

A decade later, the stepdaughter said she caught him sniffing her dirty underwear, the Times reported, adding that some family members have also accused him of abusing two of his daughters and a stepson.

Three separate law enforcement investigations were opened, the outlet said, citing police and court records, as well as family members’ accounts. Two of the inquiries ended without action, while it is unclear what happened in the third investigation.
Quote:
Without going into specifics, he told the publication: “My dad will have a carefully thought-out plan of evil. He will plan evil.”
The New York Times which the Gaurdian cites has a much more fleshed out story

Elon Musk’s SpaceX Took Money Directly From Chinese Investors, Company Insider Testifies

https://www.propublica.org/article/e...ourt-testimony

The newly unsealed testimony marks the first time direct Chinese investment in the company has been disclosed, raising new questions about foreign ownership interests in one of America’s most important military contractors.

Kinda funny how he can keep doing this, and there are enoguh stupid people to keep believing him. It's been almost a decade since he faked the first FSD(or whatever he called it then) video.

The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on Thursday that it is opening an investigation into 2.88 million Tesla#vehicles equipped with its Full Self-Driving system over more than 50 reports of traffic-safety violations and a series of crashes.

The auto safety agency said FSD - an assistance system that requires drivers to pay attention and intervene if needed - has "induced vehicle behavior that violated traffic safety laws."

So I still occasionally post on the racism app, but sometime this morning a switch got flipped and the entire For You page is dominated by separatist bull####. Just pages of people calling for insurrection or secession

Speaking of stuff like that, the other day I got a YT ad about a conservative search engine.
The blurb was that all the tech companies are owned by the “far left.” Jeezus.

Hundreds of Tesla Cybertrucks have been spotted being delivered Elon Musk’s private companies, SpaceX and xAI, as Tesla is having issues selling the electric pickup truck.

Cybertruck turned out to be Tesla’s first real commercial flop.

After planning for a production capacity of over 250,000 units per year, Tesla is currently selling the pickup truck at a rate of ~20,000 units annually.

A ~10% utiliation rate of a production line is a terrible situation for an automaker as much of the capital invested in the vehicle program becomes sunk cost.

But things are even more difficult with Tesla, as even with much lower production, the automaker often ends up having inventory build-ups for the Cybertruck.

Elon Musk has a solution: he had his private companies buy hundreds if not thousands of Cybertrucks.
https://electrek.co/2025/10/13/elon-...d-cybertrucks/


When the public won't buy your Deplorean, it's a good thing you have other companies to take up the slack. Then when Tesla sales look better than reality, have Tesla buy Xai and keep it all in the family. Financial incest.


Oh look the stock is up! The cult has bought it. Circle jerk complete.

Going all in on Trump in an effort to save himself from this actually makes a lot of sense in hindsight…
