Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

I’m starting to think their software might be bad.

No way, the company leadership that gave us MechaHitler would never skimp on Q/A or safety guardrails for their AI products.

Are the only people using these stupid fascitaxi “influencers”?

Yes. The entire system is still in early alpha, and the only people who have been invited to participate have been vocally pro-Musk in the past. So quite literally yes, it’s only influencers who are using the service, and all of them are known to slob Musk’s knob.

Literally... yes. Those are all that are allowed iirc.
