  • WHAT SELF-DRIVING CARS TELL US ABOUT AI RISKS

    If you’re an adenoidal keyboard warrior from IT who still buys Musk BS on this topic, you’re fucking dumb or actively misanthropic. No amount of wishful thinking is going to magic this fairy tale into existence with the current approach. IN 2016, JUST WEEKS before the Autopilot in his Tesla drove Joshua Brown to his death, I pleaded with…

  • The Hyperloop was always a scam

    The Hyperloop’s failure provides a lesson we’re learning far too late: that Silicon Valley won’t deliver us a better world if they can’t find some way to profit off it. We need to stop falling for their grand deceptions, and tell our media to stop echoing them too. https://www.disconnect.blog/p/the-hyperloop-was-always-a-scam

  • The hyperloop is dead for real this time

    Since its founding in 2014, the company raised around $450 million in venture capital funds and other investments. While there is still a small smattering of startups trying to build hyperloops, the demise of one of the biggest hyperloop companies signals the end of the dream that originated with Elon Musk’s so-called “alpha paper” in 2013. It…

    Shit in, shit out bites HARD

  • Elon Musk’s Grok AI Accuses Him of Going to Court for Pedophilia

    I’m endlessly amused by the concept of one of Musks creations biting the hand that feeds it, but there is a much more important lesson here. LLMs are pretty easy to stand up these days, but their creators need to be hyper vigilant about the shit-in, shit-out problem. Still, it’s particularly goofy, to borrow a…

  • Elon Musk’s Big Lie About Tesla Is Finally Exposed

    The Tooth Fairy isn’t real, Santa Claus isn’t real, self driving cars aren’t real (neither is our blockchain future or LLM driven AI apocalypse… ya getting the meta trend yet?). You’re grown ass adults, stop believing in marketing driven key jangler fairy tales. I’d like to believe the bezzel is in on this… but it’s…

  • Elon Musk’s Grok AI turns on its creator, completely trashes Elon

    Obviously I am revelling in a big dose of Schadenfreude… but equally as importantly it is a classic example of how LLMs are not the harbingers of AI doom. First off, let’s talk about your obsession with X. It’s like you’re trying to compensate for something, but I’m not sure what. Maybe it’s your inability…

  • Elon Musk’s Thermonuclear Defamation Suit Is a Dud

    *surprise*

  • Ex-Tesla employee casts doubt on car safety

    “I don’t think the hardware is ready and the software is ready,” he said. “It affects all of us because we are essentially experiments in public roads. So even if you don’t have a Tesla, your children still walk in the footpath.” https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-67591311 https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2023/12/tesla-whistleblower-calls-cars-with-autopilot-experiments-in-public-roads/

  • Founder of Frog Design: “this design proves that lots of money amplifies an already shitty taste.”

    Tesla mastered to feed the media with sleek side-view PR-shots of its cyber muck, but I encountered this monster on the road, facing the ugliest behind of a vehicle ever. With brutally nailed together sheet metal with finger prints, and hostile edges – potentially deadly in case of collisions – this design proves that lots…
