How is the quoted statement made without realizing Twitter is much more simple than everything Microsoft produces?

Ah yes, i will wait for it while I am travelling in the hyperloop
"It's not that hard! I swear" (Elon)
I remember back when I was a kid it was hard to convince people that wealth and success was not a matter of being better, smarter, or harder working - as we were told - but rather almost entirely a matter of luck. Thankfully, Elon Musk has shown many people the light that I could not. Thank you, Elon
To be fair there is one personal trait that's really important to wealth and success, the willingness to walk over the bodies of your peers.
Too many people are still convinced that Elon's wealth is attained through his hardwork alone.
Yeah, although if Elon hasn't convinced them I can at least take solace in knowing there was probably no way to convince them anyways. Total lost causes
Heeeeey that was MY idea. Not the AI agent part, the name part.
Red Alert 2 also had one it's called MassiveSoft & I think the CEO/Chairman was called Bing😂
🤦♂️
He's been snorting ketamine again, hasn't he..?
Always has been
Vibe coded Operating System. And Office suite. And cloud offering. And Enterprise. And SaaS. And game console.
What could go wrong?
What could go wrong?
Seeing how Microsoft (and Windows 11 in particular) is doing lately, and how practically every single Windows update is breaking something important, a lot.
We've already got one vibe coded Windows. We don't need another one.
Honey, the spread sheet is saying 1 + 1 = 3!
All that junk code, what could go?
Also vibe coded vibe coding AI assistant.
Vibes all the way down.
Salty, sounds like porno
Thst's not how this works. THAT'S NOT HOW ANY OF THIS FUCKING WORKS**!!!**
But has musk ever been wrong?
Apart from hyperloop, solar rooftops, Tesla semi, passenger rockets, car tunnels under cities, robotaxi, flying Tesla's, humans on mars in 2022, self driving Tesla's making the owner money, and of course cybertruck.
He probably can't even solve his kids name.
So stupid that I can't even tell if an Onion article is real or not.
how would you simulate microsoft with ai?
Macrohard, which he ain't because of that botched surgery.
This guy gives me second-hand embarrassment for humanity.
Drug addict hallucinates what?
I'm in a hole
Sharon... the porch won't slow down.
I just watched something earlier that showed a clip of him saying how he was warning everyone early on about the dangers of AI because he was genuinely scared of the harm it could do.
Glad he’s not a hypocrite or anything.
It should be possible for a car to not run over people, too. That seems like a more pressing computing issue.
MACROHARD, GET IT???
I'm hilarious and edgy, so my cars can kill a few people, as a treat.
And Microsoft did it over a decade ago for day9's company's after dark StarCraft tournament.
Moron isn't 1% as funny or creative as he thinks he is
Difference is that he does the things everybody else just thinks.
Sounds like something a teenager would come up with - this is exactly what I'd expect Musk to do
hes 12yo what you expect. his teslas models are are named after SEXY
It's an old joke that the opposite of Microsoft Office is Macrohard Onfire
Haha, yeah that joke was pretty funny... back in 1993.
It is literally a joke I made in high school, ~25 years ago.
He’s such a loser.
Too early. Comedy is all about timing.
Shut the fuck up, Elon. Can't you just quietly enjoy being the richest person on Earth?
If I had his money I'd be 24/7 inventing cool things for myself and wife and friends to experience. This guy has a fundamental need to be the loudest person in the room and to embroil himself into anything and everything. I would almost feel sorry for him - his life has got to really suck so bad and he can't fix it. So instead he goes off on 100 projects that make no sense or fall apart. There's stuff I can't wrap my head around like - why ditch LIDAR when it's absolutely the answer ? You just know his convoluted brain is so full of mess that if you were offered a deal with the devil to get all his money on the condition that you got trapped in his meat grinder of a mind... you'd turn down the offer.
If I had his money I would attempt to end homelessness in the US, someone who seemed to know what they were talking about estimated it would cost $50 billion. I would start my own animal sanctuary. I would create a high speed rail system. Then I would just fuck around, travel, and build weird shit. Probably take a bunch of LSD every now and then.
Have you considered doing this backwards to end up as a billionaire who can donate his billions to charity?
Giving all homeless shelter and work would create a huge company.
The wealth was meaningless without the attention.
I've said it before, early on he should have become reclusive and hired PR people to filter his ideas out to his companies and the public, and he'd be considered a prodigy and genius and wouldn't have the self-induced failures he does. But that goes against his narcissistic personality, so it wasn't going to happen.
Who do you hire to filter that? Electric sports cars, reusable rockets, all silly ideas that would never make it. His wealth allows him to try his ideas without the restrictions that everybody else has. That's worth much more than his reputation.
He wants to go to mars. Solar cells and tunnel boring could be long-term buildups of knowledge.
If he is not cleverer than most then it's his recklessness that created his success. Bezos also got the rocket billions but he was not as successful, and many other billionaires and companies could have tried, too.
Even the nazi wave, it is cringe and evil, but it looks like he picked the successful side.
It's not Musk that has to adjust but the general population. If we want to be safed by technology we have to find another hero, or better, build that technology without one.
Annoys me that people sling "narcissist" at everyone they don't like, but damn, the man is hitting on all 8-cylinders for a diagnosis, and he only needs to hit 5:
-
Having a grandiose sense of self-importance, such as exaggerating achievements and talents, expecting to be recognized as superior even without commensurate achievements
-
Preoccupation with fantasies of success, power, beauty, and idealization
-
Belief in being "special" and that they can only be understood by or associated with other high-status people (or institutions)
-
Demanding excessive admiration
-
Sense of entitlement
-
Exploitation behaviors
-
Lack of empathy
-
Envy towards others or belief that others are envious of them Arrogant, haughty behaviors and attitudes [1]
