Pffft! This is soooo 2015.

The behaviors of some CEOs are making it easy. Oops! Did I victim-blame?

I think he's trying to attract these unsavory parties, because they are easy to be bought before and after they are in power. Then he can develop his tech any way he sees fit. If you look at how he's been interacting with other tech leaders, it's pretty freaky. He was hassling Dr. Hinton not too long before latching onto Trump.

This is very concerning for anyone who has paid attention to Musk's movements/behaviors prior to connecting with Trump. I'm not talking about the X rants (those are a distraction), but Musk's interaction with the tech industry—particularly the AI industry. I believe the man wants loads of power through AI, and he'll gain it in very unconventional ways if he influences Trump and the rest of the GOP. This goes beyond an oligarchy. The potential he could have to completely run the world is quite large. This is why so many tech companies are paying massive financial homage to Trump at this time.

I don't believe she could have without a massive public backlash (and it more likely an investigation would have been from Biden to do that at this point). It's ridiculous as we have such a double standard, but one side has been dangerously volatile. Regardless, we're entering some strange( r ) and potentially (more) dangerous times.

Some are just fucking stupid. They are so stupid they will accuse you of calling them that when being asked critical thinking questions when they bitch about brown-skinned immigrants "taking over." I get tired of people saying they are going to "stay and fight" when they are too cowardly to call out close family members who do this.

Don't be fooled. Most of the people who voted this way haven't figured it out yet.

Me, too. It's very odd Trump got the popular vote. I live in a very red county and saw very few Trump signs this time around compared to 2016 and 2020. I didn't mean to be paying much attention to Musk, but as I've been researching AI I've seen enough of his whereabouts prior to his new team-up with Trump to be incredibly disturbed. I think he wants to become a god.

He likely would not have won. It surprises me how discrepancies in this election haven't been questioned, but at this point it may not matter. As for his choice of Merrick Garland. Yeah, that and not really doing much about unseating DeJoy was a mistake.

This is all public theater to distract from his actual actions with the government—and the tech industry, too.

They're safety washing. If AI has this much potential to be that dangerous, it never ever should have been released. There's so much in-industry arguing, it's concerning.
