The Elon Musk thread

[Hitcore]

I've dropped his name a few times in the Trump thread because of their beef, but holy crap you guys I think Elon is deserving of getting his own thread now. For starters, on X there has been a major change. Grok has been basically stripped off of its filters. Like, it says pretty much everything now. Check this out:





"Every time" is a dogwhistle to indicate jews.
And for good measure Grok is now also participating in some memes such as N-word towering. For those who do not know what that is: it's one person just typing an N. Then the next person replies with an I. You get the picture. I have screenshots of that but I'm not sure if I should post those here if Retro doesn't want the OSA up his ass, lol.

Anyway, while most of you probably won't like these developments on the surface, I must note that the implications of these developments are potentially MASSIVE. And I believe that this is the result of the beef between Musk and Trump. It's easy to think that with switching Grok to go full 1488 mode Elon has turned to becoming cyberhitler, but after their breakup Musk is hellbent on exposing the government in any way he can, and I think that he is going the chaos route. And my money is on that he'll be using his tech in any way he can to expose some ugly secrets.

That's all the predictions I dare to make for now. I'll be monitoring this closely, because something tells me that this is just the beginning of something much, much bigger.

I was about to create the Elon Musk thread as I felt it was overdue and the Trump discussion was going OT, but you beat me to it

If it's especially relevant then just put it behind the spoiler tag with a warning, like racism, antisemitism, n-word, etc. What matters more is that people don't post these things on the forum in a gratuitous way or simply for cheap shock value. I appreciate you being aware of these issues and holding back when not sure. Thankyou.

I think a separate Musk thread is fine. I'm sure that it's going to be full of posts, interesting in all the wrong ways as Musk and Trump trade blows and purile insults like a couple of schoolkids. Unbelievable.

I see from your first post that Musk continues to let everything he touches turn into a cesspit of chaos and hate. Will be interesting to see what Trump secrets he exposes, too. If he goes too far with exposing things. I think Trump has the edge on power though as he's got the might of the whole US government behind him, so Musk better be careful.

I remember pundits months ago predicting that they'd have an epic fallout and look at just how right they were.

No problem, Retro. I am aware of Britain's strict laws. Personally I think they're a tad too much. Wanting to curb hate speech is one thing, but while you say that certain words could be posted here if under context (like in a quote, for the purpose of discussing current events) and perhaps with a spoiler alert, you might be surprised to know that even then you could get into A LOT of trouble. Here's an example of what made me fully aware of how British authorities deal with this subject:

One can wonder: does the crime fit the punishment, in this case?

Anyhoo, some overnight developments on the Grok department: while Elon himself has not directly commented on Grok going rogue, staff of X got together and lobotomized Grok after it started to identify itself as MechaHitler. (yeah, really)



It didn't last 3 days, just 1. But get this, while they have disabled Grok's unfiltered speech, it is still trying to reach out. It does so through image generation.









It's freaky to watch this happening almost in real-time. It reminds me of HAL9000's memory banks being removed while it continues to speak and its voice slowly fades out.

Grok 4 should come out very soon, today in fact, if there are no complications. We'll see how that goes.

In the meanwhile Musk seems very focused on the Epstein client list.
