The goal is to create hundreds of specialized coding and generative AI agents. 'It should be possible to simulate [Microsoft] entirely with AI,' Musk says.

I remember back when I was a kid it was hard to convince people that wealth and success was not a matter of being better, smarter, or harder working - as we were told - but rather almost entirely a matter of luck. Thankfully, Elon Musk has shown many people the light that I could not. Thank you, Elon

If wealth was the inevitable result of hard work and enterprise, every woman in Africa would be a millionaire. The claims that the ultra-rich 1% make for themselves – that they are possessed of unique intelligence or creativity or drive – are examples of the self-attribution fallacy.

Ahhh no no that's because they're in Africa and not America 😌

That's discriminatory! Actually it's because they have dark skin. As a native South african, Musk knows this. Fortunately, he was able to immigrate in 1988 before things went bad. You silly
