For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.

No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.

Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.

Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.

Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

He's right, though. It is false. Left wing violence is not on the rise.

[–] BoycottPro@lemm.ee 12 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Boycotting Twitter and all of Musk's companies is now more urgent than ever. Grok is going to be even more rigged to spew out hateful nonsense.

[–] JustARegularNerd@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

I feel it always has been rigged, it's just that the rigging has always been so incompetent

[–] AWistfulNihilist@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Anyone else find it odd they cut out the likes musk gets? I want to see how many assholes agree with him.

[–] FireAtWill@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Elon's losing it.

[–] FreakinSteve@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

One of these days the people will understand. Maybe. Unless they are consumed first.

"Waahhh! Saying it's false means it must be false despite all that pesky evidence to the contrary!"

[–] merdaverse@lemmy.zip 47 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Parroting the media it was trained on? Who's going to tell him how LLMs work??

[–] bytesonbike@discuss.online 36 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

It's trained on "Legacy media", filled with things like data and facts. NEW media is based on thoughts, feelings, anti-wokeness, and flipping around if "Pedo Trump and Epstein were besties" or if "Daddy Trump I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry".

Who needs to import a dictionary of words with meanings, when we got feelings.

They even both end in S!

Working on it

🤣, and I do not use this emoji lightly. See, Elon - your memes are cringe, so you should focus on jokes like these instead. Veritable kneeslappers. Suggesting you're actually doing something personally? Hah, hilarious.

[–] Mustakrakish@lemmy.world 8 points 12 hours ago

Nah just yelling at overworked engineers to make the propaganda more consistent who are scared of getting their visas revoked. That's "working on it" to losers like musk

[–] turdburglar@lemmy.zip 60 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

grok is also running off generators in south memphis, polluting the air for the humans that live near elon’s penis computer.

elon is also using the clean drinking water of the memphis sand aquifer to cool his penis computer rather than using grey water from the plant that he promised to build but has yet to break ground on.

please do not use grok. it is literally poisoning the people of memphis.

[–] halferect@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago

Maybe memphis should do something about it

[–] ghen@sh.itjust.works 15 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

If Memphis cares about their citizens they can shut it downtoday. The world isn't going to stop using it if it's available for free and convenient, that's just laughable.

We can't stop now! The commons haven't been sufficiently tragedied!

they can't even get their stupid toys they made to play along.

[–] AreaKode@lemmy.world 31 points 1 day ago (4 children)

That's what I love about LLMs. They aren't intelligent. They're just really good at recognizing patterns. That's why objective facts are always presented correctly. Most of the pattern points at the truth. To avoid this, they will have to add specific prompts to lie about this exact scenario. The next similar fact, they'll have to manually code around that one too. LLMs are very good at finding the overwhelming truth.

That's why objective facts are always presented correctly.

Here's me looking at the hallucinated discography of a band that never existed and nodding along.

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 day ago (9 children)

Maybe they're just way underground and you've never heard of them

I asked ChatGPT to describe the abandoned railway line between Åkersberga and Rimbo, it responded with a list of stations and descriptions and explained the lack of photos and limited information as due to the stations being small and only open for a short while.

My explanation is that there has never been a railway line between Åkersberga and Rimbo directly, and that ChatGPT was just lying.

[–] stoy@lemmy.zip 1 points 7 hours ago

Perfectly accurate!

[–] lime@feddit.nu 13 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago) (1 children)

it's not lying, because it doesn't know truth. it just knows that text like that is statistically likely to be followed by text like this. any assumptions made by the prompt (e.g. there is an old railway line) are just taken at face value.

also, since there has indeed been a railway connection between them, just not direct, that may have been part of the assumption.

[–] stoy@lemmy.zip 1 points 7 hours ago

I expected it to talk about the actual railway, not invent a fantasy line

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I use ChatGPT once a day or so. Yeah, it's damned good at simple facts, more than lemmy will ever admit. Yeah, it'll easily make shit up if there's no answer to be had.

We should have started teaching tech literacy and objective analysis 20-years ago. FFS, by 2000 I had figured out that, "If it sounds like bullshit, it likely is. Look more."

Also, after that post, I'm surprised this site hasn't taken you out back and done an ol' Yeller on ya. :)

Working on it means he forwarded a screenshot to somebody who works for him with a bunch of ???

Meanwhile, depending on office politics, that guy will unfortunately have to spend the next 3 months figuring out how to alter the facts or just suppress data made by the AI that the boss doesn't like.

[–] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 71 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I feel like shithead musk always says like "working on it" but i would be surprised if he ever does any meaningful work.

He's just such a disgrace. Like a fractal shit. No matter what part of him and his life you look at, no matter how zoomed in or out, it's just shit. Fuck that guy.

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 9 points 16 hours ago

Working on it

Ah, my narcissist/human translation dictionary. Here we go:

Yelling at someone

[–] WanderingThoughts@europe.pub 14 points 21 hours ago

Last time he worked on anything it produced the cybertruck.

[–] Bonus@lemmy.world 57 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If Grok is recalling historical facts, then these historical facts are objectively false.

[–] Hellinabucket@lemmy.world 38 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Not historical facts, legacy facts.

[–] Bonus@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago

Ah, discarded facts. Got it.

[–] MITM0@lemmy.world 5 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

So Elon has lost control of Grok😂

Hey do you guys think AIs will be benevolent towards us ?

[–] NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

We deserve The Basilisk.

[–] Archangel1313@lemmy.ca 44 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That weird. I'm absolutely positive Grok's answer matches law enforcement statistics, as well.

[–] _cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 1 day ago

yeah, but the pigs don't care about right-wing violence, because it's them under the white masks.

[–] Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 25 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Democrats weren't assassinating people at the No Kings protests.

[–] the_q@lemmy.zip 14 points 1 day ago

I genuinely cannot understand why folks are still using that platform.
