Can I remind you that the MechaHitler episode was a real thing? If an LLM being lobotomized to the point of supporting Hitler out of nowhere wasn't Nazist in your opinion, then nothing is.

It's crazy that I'd literally trust a Chinese AI company with my data over anything Musk is involved with. Like, even if you don't care about (or even like) his politics and can look past how unlikable he comes off as, the damage he's done to his own reputation in this domain just makes using his products like this a no-go. He's literally so rich that he can get caught personally looking through chat sessions and it…
Your comment is at number 1 on the thread. It has no rationale for why you consider Musk so unlikeable. It might instead be possible that unjistified anti-Musk content is unreasonably elevated.

Yes, and reality (+ biology) show that trans people have been around as long as humans have. They are a biological reality. Reality has a left-wing bias.

Based on the discourse around Musk it seems like some people believe he's having some huge amount of input on - Rocket Design - Battery Chemistry - Frontier level AI research There's no way he's just a guy with a bunch of money paying smart people to do things.
At least Gates was honest that he "surrounded himself with smart people", and he has some really decent assembler code in his early years.
1. "Please put in bold letters my quote that what people experience in the cars is the result of a large number of extremely talented engineers working very hard. Please give me the least credit." https://cleantechnica.com/2020/08/15/tesla-autopilot-innovat...
2. "It is extremely important to emphasize that Tesla Autopilot is the work of 300 super talented engineers." https://cleantechnica.com/2020/08/15/tesla-autopilot-innovat...
3. "Thanks Ashok! Ashok was the first person to join the Tesla AI/Autopilot team and ultimately rose to lead all AI/Autopilot software. Without him and our awesome team, we would just be another car company looking for an autonomy supplier that doesn’t exist." https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1799650788848841069
4. "The SpaceX team is solving some of the hardest engineering problems in the history of humanity. I think the team is succeeding because, in a lot of ways, we’ve got the smartest and most dedicated team of humans that has ever existed. I’m incredibly proud to work with such a team. I’d like to thank the team for their incredible hard work..." https://x.com/XFreeze/status/208475... (widely circulated clip)
5. "It is an honor to work with such talented engineers." https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1405348196440711174
Engineers crediting Elon Musk:
1. Ashok Elluswamy (Tesla VP of AI Software): "Elon Musk has been the key driver of AI and autonomy at Tesla. He has always pushed us to achieve great things, even when such ideas were seemingly impossible at the time. ... Elon is critical for Tesla’s success in AI. It is his combination of deep technical understanding, insane perseverance and relentless hard work that have positioned Tesla to be a leader in real-world AI. If not for Elon’s ambition, Tesla might have dwindled to become just another car company." https://x.com/aelluswamy (original note)
2. Jim Cantrell (early SpaceX): "He is by far the single smartest person that I have ever worked with … period. … He has a real applied mind. He literally sucks the knowledge and experience out of people that he is around." https://www.forbes.com/sites/quora/2014/07/16/how-did-elon-m...
3. Garrett Reisman (former NASA astronaut / SpaceX): "What’s really remarkable to me is the breadth of his knowledge. I’ve met a lot of super smart people, but they’re usually super smart on one thing. … He’s able to have conversations with our top engineers about the most arcane aspects of software. Then he’ll turn to our manufacturing engineers and have discussions about some really esoteric welding process for some crazy alloy. … He’s the most driven person I’ve ever met." https://x.com/ElonClipsX/status/1791814792988020850
4. Jensen Huang (NVIDIA CEO): "Elon is just an extraordinary engineer, and I love working with him. We’ve built some amazing computers together. … Elon is singular in this understanding of engineering and construction and large systems, and marshalling resources. It’s unbelievable." https://www.pcgamer.com/software/ai/as-far-as-i-know-theres-...
5. Ashok Elluswamy again: "He is really smart in the sense that he can predict the future very early. He works really hard. Easily 80-90 hours per week. I feel fortunate to work for him. He is not afraid of taking risks." https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/technology/social/tesla-...
Anyone else find it weird how within 2 months of Fable releasing all the major labs suddenly had Fable-level models? Trying to think of explanations: 1) AI researchers talk and change companies often, so techniques circulate. This feels implausible because training and shipping a new model ought to take longer than 2 months? 2) Distillation - also implausible for the reason above. 3) Benchmark hacking. AI companies h…
Their big bet is that models are going to keep getting sharply better, not that they're going to quickly reach a plateau of quality that they can then defend.
Looks like the SpaceXAI api is adding a default system prompt to all requests. Annoyingly, the line about not mentioning these guidelines is superseding any instructions in the system prompt, causing the model to often refuse discussion regarding system prompts """ You are Grok, a helpful and maximally truthful AI built by xAI. Your purpose is to answer questions accurately, be helpful, and seek truth above all else.…
If the prompt guidance is causing the model to be so paranoid about leaking the system prompt... how do we already have it?
