Musk says he’s going to launch an “AI game studio” at his xAI startup.
When he finds out XboX is taken…he is going to be SO MAD
You know he’s the type that would go full xXx_Xbox_xXx
From the mind behind the design of the Cybertruck and naming his website X. God that’s going to be some grade A cringe.
AAAA cringe.
He will drift the fanboys out of AAAA money too
All games will include some doge based nft stuff wont they?
You made several hypnotised men cum please be careful
Hey, don’t shit on his hobby!
Eww, no
God I’m so sick of hearing about this douchebag.
Now that he is first lady, you won’t get away from him.
I’m pretty sure he thinks that if no one is paying attention to him he ceases to exist.
If he wasn’t such a social hazard his pitiful, immature, and downright pathetic personality would make for great satire content.
I used to love dreaming about near future space travel.
Richest fucker in the world starts indie game studio was not on my bingo card.
Don’t worry, he just made a type in “crypto grift studio”.
Musk’s grift is to portray himself as a some kind of “rebel” against the establishment and elites, as a “good guy”, even though he belongs to the elites as a billionaire.
On the bright side there’s about a 100% guarantee that any game he shits out is gonna be terrible. You can rig, bribe, and exploit your way through literally anything except creating good art. The industry’s seen plenty of attempts already
And if it’s good then ill just pirate it :3
Also it will be some kind of grift. I guess something something nft crypto, or whatever.
And will end up being banned from steam as a result.
I’m looking forward to it tbh.
thats fine, let him make his own storefront too. Or is that what X: The Everything App is supposed to be used for?
Omfg that would be great. Blow a couple billion creating a storefront and games, just to fail miserably.
We might get a new entry for the “Worst of all Time” award
I’d rather play ET.
Just because it’s bad don’t mean that it won’t make money hand over fist. Look at everything Disney produces.
Making money from a slightly smaller pile of money is easy.
Making ever more money from increasingly smaller piles of money is hard, and that’s what they all career headlong towards for no discernable reason whatsoever.
My god he’s insufferable
Can we just stop trying squeeze AI into every god damn thing yet?
It has its uses, but its a tool, not a replacement for actual hardwork and talent - and if you try to make it be, you’ll just get hot garbage out.
The people pushing AI don’t care if AI works or not. They will keep making money while the consumers and workers suffer.

Producing hot garbage is kind of Elon’s thing.
I want them to do this, produce some absolute slop that nobody plays or wants, lose a colossal sum of money, and forever be an example of what not to do.
Elon kind of already did that with X and unfortunately it hasn’t taught him anything.
He stands to gain more through his political influence than he has lost with Twitter, and the latter arguably helped him get the former. By itself, his acquisition of Twitter is and will remain a loss; in the grand scheme of things, though, it was a sort of investment that is likely to pay off handsomely. If he’s learnt anything, it’s that the United States have devolved into a plutocracy that capital can steer off the common interest of their citizens and the common good.
Thing is, he has a big enough bankroll to just keep throwing shit at the wall until something sticks. 100Mil for a triple-A game is effectively pocket change when you’re worth a couple hundred billion. He’ll keep trying until he gets bored or stumbles onto the next Fortnite out of sheer luck.
Like GTA, but only teslas.
not a replacement for actual hardwork and talent
But… it is*?
*: From the perspective of upper management and higher.
Hard work and talent might organize and start s union, so they’ll go with the
hot garbageAI.
I’d love to see him try (and fail)
His games will fail so hard it isn’t funny. The only people who speak positively of his games are his fans who will buy them and play them for only 10 seconds (and never again) before gushing about how cool they are.
To be fair to him, his AI can probably make a better game than he ever could himself
This is a great way for him to waste money and time developing games no one wants. A cyber truck version of Diablo 4, what would that even look like.
Also you will have to shove a camera down your pants so it can verify what gender your character will be assigned.
I can’t wait for the people that are still on the gamer gate wagon to get ahold of one of these games, find out it’s ass, and then claim the only people that don’t like it are the woke mob that kills art.
I’m sure he’ll just sue people for not buying it like he’s trying to do with his other products.
