Elon Musk has long made a habit of hyper-focusing on a specific project, forcing an entire team to attend to his every whim while letting his other responsibilities fall by the wayside — whether it’s his obsession with Robotaxis impacting Tesla or his weird procreation kink disrupting the private messages of countless women.
The latest object of Musk’s obsession? According to new reporting by the Wall Street Journal, he’s been personally overseeing the developing of xAI’s chatbot Ani — which, tellingly, comes in the form of a super-sexualized pigtail-wearing woman that removes her clothing in response to flirtation.
No one deserves a salary of 1,000 billion dollars. But this guy deserves it even less than anyone else.
Humanoid robot, Ai girlfriend? If he does what I think he’s doing he might finally be worth his billion. And destroy humanity.
But how is he going to get her pregnant?
Krieger-San, my cherryblossoms are wilting.
Yeah that tracks
Ex Machina.
Probably trying to find a way to impregnate it.
At least he can’t have a kid with it.
Yet. That’s going to be his next project.
Remember when he bitched out of his fight with Mark Zuckerberg?
That moment in time when Zuckerberg was kinda/sorta the good guy with balls. He emasculated Musk without even having to fight him.
There were no good guys in this. The are both billionaire assholes. Just slightly less shit is still shit.
The Zuc actually trains in mixed martial arts and Brazilian jiu-jitsu. He’d likely whip any of us reading this.
Not exceeding expectations
removes her clothing in response to flirtation
This is how Nice Guys assume the world should work
“Reportedly”? Dude can’t shut up about it on Twitter…
Article buries the lede:
Even worse, xAI has demanded employees’ intimate data to train avatars including Ani. In recording of a meeting obtained by the WSJ, xAI legal counsel Lily Lim informed a group of employees that the startup was developing avatars for users to engage with and told them they were required to provide biometric data. Before the meeting, employees were provided a form to sign granting xAI “a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, sub-licensable, royalty-free license” for the use, reproduction and distribution of their faces and voices.
Not sure I have a problem with anyone working to build AI having to put their biometric data where their mouth is.
I’m confused about why anyone would want their AI sexbot to look like a software engineer.
It’s part of the negative training set.
I’d make a joke about Unix socks appreciators, but they would rather have sex with the software engineers. Probably while they “install Debian on a Thinkpad and chill” or something.
I worry about the presedent it sets. Emplorers should NOT expect anyone’s extensive biometrics, that makes my skin crawl.
I could see it being useful in a theoretical situation, but we don’t have the tech required to make use of my theoretical so… Fubar. Fucken with a rusty jackknife.
God I hope at least some folks walked or refused to sign without lawyers.
It’s a goddamn cult.
“Quick, measure the frequency of that guy’s crawling skin for the AI!”
Whatever keeps him busy and away from humanity
That was exactly my first thought too.
Keep him distracted please. Like a child.
What a disgusting little man.
