“Protesting” doesn’t traditionally involve explosives…

Depends, population growth means it’s possible in raw terms even if it doesn’t compare per capita.

If this were any other industry, people would be in jail, this shit is illegal. But then if this was any other industry we also wouldn’t all be pretending copyright law doesn’t exist for them. It seems if you’ve got enough VC money behind you, laws are something that happen to other people.

AI itself won’t destroy humanity but AI companies seem to want to have a go. They really need to be held accountable for what they do and stop being allowed to hide behind “the AI did it” like LLMs have any independent agency.

You say that like claiming your total addressable market is a quarter of all economic activity on earth isn’t completely batshit

For context, that’s 25% of world GDP or ~$3750 for every man, woman and child on earth.

Doesn’t German -> Dutch basically involve just translating half the words to English and adding a silly accent though?

No, in this case the AI is finding the bugs and humans are at least reviewing the code and, anecdotally at least, in a lot of cases still writing it in the first place.

Not sure how this is “news”…

It’s a good start but the stock is still up >300% on the IPO price. It’s got a long way to fall yet.

Controversial take: it doesn’t matter in the slightest.

By having your CEO come out as a fascist, pissing off the demographic that tends to buy EVs and also stagnating while allowing your competitors to catch up.

Could be that some of the irrational Musk fanboys have moved their money over to Spacex? Could also be a complete coincidence though given past Tesla price movements.

The charges are in the UK, the arrest was for extradition. Not sure who has what power to block that but I’m not holding my breath that they actually face justice just yet.

No, the 300b was promised but not yet delivered. The US did remove sanctions on Iranian oil though so they will have made a buck on that + whatever “fees” they managed to extract from ships wanting to transit.

I got banned for saying Peter Thiel should be turned into soup.

And quite right too. He’s clearly more suited for a stew or casserole.

On average it’s maybe 15-20% quicker than manually coding the whole lot.

Out of interest, how much is this 15-20% increase in productivity costing in tokens?

I’d be wary of that given the detachment from reality of the TSLA share price. The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent and all that.

Sure, the question is does he have $2.17b/month worth of spare compute to cover this + the Anthropic deal after whatever compute grok is using is accounted for
