I am a lot less worried about AI taking my job than I am about Elon Musk being a blue-print for lots of other companies to treat their employees like disposable cattle. We had a sweet spot where we could have made work much better, this is regression. https://www.cnbc.com/...

That interview goes from being cringeworthy and weird to just full-on disturbing and scary right after his brain crashes and then struggles to reboot. The interviewer looked legitimately uneasy. I'm really not seeing a light at the end of the tunnel with Musk. https://twitter.com…

Elon Musk has completely lost the plot. You can tell he's seething that the interviewer even dared to ask about the fascist, anti-Semitic things he's been tweeting. He's not only surrounded by yes men, but has built a far-right info bubble he wants to pull more people into. https…
