Assume he's referring to SpaceX's https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terafab

Turning The Line into one giant ~~paperclip~~ chip assembly line!

We can call it the Peta(Principle)Line!

He believes in the value of the idea of “space compute” for attracting investors to SpaceX. But the existence of the idea of “space compute” as a better way to deploy datacenters (along with everything else Musk has claimed in the past decade) should give everyone pause as to the plausibility of literally everything else he says.

> should give everyone pause as to the plausibility of literally everything else he says. That ship has sailed, we're in the Age of Cults. If you're a believer you're probably also invested in his companies, so your mind is doubly-clouded.

Further I think external agents are controlling their mind.

Grok’s whole thing is being irresponsible and edgy. Can’t s ee Anthropic going for that, can’t see Grok’s customer base accepting an AI that refuses to do nonconsensual porn.

Model fine-tunes to change the 'edgy' tone are very cheap and easy to do. Grok could easily be powered by Claude in just a few weeks engineering time.

Technically yes, but my point was that I do not think Anthropic would be receptive to a pitch to fine tune Opus to be an edgelord.

> space compute Heard anybody remotely competent about space talk the topic? It's pretty much a literal laugh every time.

It is absolutely baffling to me how frequently I hear people talk about this around me. There is no way this is happening anytime in the near future.

But if the US isn’t the first to put an AI on the moon, we’ll lose the AI space race!

Musk said Anthropic Claude was woke DEI until he said it wasn't. It must be hard for Musk fans to keep up.

I mean … they’re mostly sitting on their SpaceX stock and rubbing their hands gleefully. What do they have to keep up with? Disclosure: former (small) SX investor.

You just made my sub text the text. Money makes the world go around. Who cares about values when there's money to be made?

That would be absolutly ludicris. His own product is competing against anthropic.

It's a money maker. Maybe not a number one spot, but they don't have to stand up any more datacenters.

His product should be the money maker.

Mr. President, we must not allow a mine-shaft gap!

Very possible Elon is doing this to make give Anthropic better chances against OAI while he attempts to reshape xAI. Also possible he sees infra as the future of xAI if he really believes in the value of space compute. Hard to see this any of this as anything other than a bearish sign for Grok though.

While I agree with you on the merit of the idea, rockets that can take off and then land vertically without damage were also laughable pre-SpaceX.

You don't have to actually have an orbiting datacenter for the idea to work. You just have to convince enough people. Once you've done that, you can claim that regional regulations don't apply to your data because the data is in orbit. Its not like somebody is gonna go up there and catch you in the lie.

Out-of-regulatory-reach is what they'll actually be selling. It can be on earth, it just has to be sufficiently hidden such that you can claim that it's in space.
