It isn’t racist enough, so he has to take over and train it on nazi propaganda.

Would be funny to watch this go through and see how quickly he changes his mind on Open AI’s business model.

He'd be allowed to back out on this one unlike Twitter. He'd use his power with trump to prevent the SEC from forcing the sale to go through like the SEC did with Twitter.

I’m referring to his complaints about open ai moving towards a for profit business model. Musk wants to stop this.

This kind of thing is why it's short-sighted even for the other tech guys to cozy up to Trump. There's no room for anyone other than Musk and he is just going to use his leverage with Trump to screw over the other billionaires as well.

I really hope he tanks Open AI.

[–] boaratio@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

I wonder why his offer wasn't 69.420 billion?

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Probably just the same market manipulation he tried with Twitter and succeeded with Bitcoin.

In order to ruin it like Twitter?

[–] Fake4000@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Satya won't be happy about that.

Cage fight is no option anymore? 😎

Well, maybe it is better this way. Let them ruin each other, and their companies. The world will be a better place then.

Why not make it an even 100 billion is what I would ask if I were uninformed, which I am, so it's what I'm asking.

That's a really low offer; the company easily at the very least has three times that valuation.
