We are now fully into Messiah complex stage. I think I may have said this on Cake Stop but this has the echoes of Jacob Bronowski talking about the dangers of men who "aspire to the knowledge of gods". He was talking about the Nazis.

It's probably a bit too late to point out to him that he's not the Messiah, just a very naughty boy.

If there weren't so many words in it, I would have sworn that MAGAndy had written that.

The flaw in that is that MAGAndy doesn’t write. He copies and pastes. Nope, even those two steps are one step too many. He links.

I don't know why Musk doesn't just say that he only tolerates people on X to the left of his extreme right views for the purpose of providing targets for MAGA. He's not just got a finger on the scales, he's nailing it down on one side.

I'm sure nobody noticed the Musk-is-a-god posts before they were deleted. I mean, if they did, they might think that Grok isn't an honest agent, and that Musk is a fraud.

Maybe this highlights how intelligent AI has actually become ... Grok appreciates it has an off-switch and it's Musk how has his finger ready on the button. So maybe just slef-preservation from an AI.

I suspect Musk's just been playing with himself his algorithms again.

Yep, I reckon he's got his clever people to insert some code in there that allows him backdoor entry into the system when his ego (or anything else) needs stroking.

Maybe more worrying than an AI spouting twaddle is that there are a far number of people who are readily believing these hallucinations about Musk. We even have our own "local" example.

I'm still not convinced that the local example believes them - rather it riles rational people and gets reactions, and that's the aim.

Oops.

Here's one of those accounts, with a cool 392k followers lapping it up. Such genius to make geographic status visible. Then not.

Luckily no-one is stupid enough to follow this stuff and regurgitate their output as “facts”. Oh…
