      And an “x”. It does sell more with an added “x”, like things are faster when painted red and stay cooler when blue.

    What the fuck is his obsession with the letter X? It’s like he learned the alphabet, got to X and decided it was the coolest thing in the universe.

        No, but he’s going to waste a lot of money on it. And likely not his own money… But then again, he doesn’t have the tech bro pull that he used to.

        So the company might just quietly die as he refuses to fund it himself, and can’t con others into giving him more money.

      Came into the comments about to type what you quoted Elon saying.

      The world is pretty fucked regarding AI when one of the guys who was sounding the alarm about the dangers of AI. Starts his own damn AI company… what a clown world we live in it’s like the twilight zone.

        He was just mad they were making money instead of him…

    I wonder what a LLM trained on the increasingly…shifted content Twitter has recently would look like.

      Even better, train an LLM on the output of another LLM. It’s LLM’s all the way down! Surely this is how we get hyper-intelligent AGIs and will not at all result in a nonsensical gibberish machine.

        They do train LLMs on others. A fairly successful new tact has been to train them not on the output but on how the LLM got to the output. So teaching how to answer questions rather than answers by rote.
