Elon neuralinked into Grok AI, and mechahitler was the result.

she was only installed as a lightning rod for Musk for criticism nothing more.

I can't believe people still use Twitter.

[–] mienshao@lemmy.world 213 points 1 week ago (28 children)

I think this every single time I see news about that website. Like what the fuck is possibly on there that justifies using that piece of shit platform? Insanity.

Tech news. Fast tech news. It's well centralized. Unfortunately nothing comes close (not reddit, nor HN, nor lemmy).

This sketch was about Facebook but it's also relevant to Twitter

[–] TheFogan@programming.dev 37 points 1 week ago

Actually more relevant now, considering the ending

"Go to the site where Nazi's scream at you". It's talking about moving from facebook to twitter.

I dont really care that the average person still uses twitter... What's INFURIATING is that gov't agencies are still using that shit. Why are important pieces of information still being shared on twitter??

The Secretary of Defense coordinated military operations on Signal, accidentally included a reporter to the group chat (who later spilled the tea on the whole thing), and in that chat claimed they were "clean" on their opsec.

That's what republicans do. They're dumber than a bag of wet bags.

I keep getting arguments from peoplee about this, even on Bluesky.

Apparently it's too much to expect people to inconvenience themselves and not follow their favorite musicians or whatever.

If the vast majority of people can't be assed to take the absolutely easiest step possible to fight (or avoid supporting) fascists/Nazis, then we really are fucked.

Same thing with how people could very, very easily choose just NOT to buy another Nazicar. Yet 90% if Americans still bought one last month as a year earlier. It's just about the smallest sacrifice I can think of - just buying a DIFFERENT car that you might not like quite as much.

And I think the fact that we are where we are right now also confirms the problem.

I’m immensely grateful to him for entrusting me with the responsibility of protecting free speech, turning the company around, and transforming X into the Everything App.

Translation: I’m so thankful that I’ve had the opportunity to devote 2 years of my life to a company that was able to build a product that could appropriately express its true love for Adolf Hitler.

[–] generic_computers@lemmy.zip 1 points 6 days ago

There's no way that Elon let her have any actual autonomy to make decisions for the company. I'm not even convinced Elon didn't just tell her to say that.

Also, assuming those are her own words, she didn't say that she did any of those things, just that she had the "responsibility" to do so. If that was really her responsibility, she epically failed at it.

[–] 13igTyme@lemmy.world 78 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Real translation: thanks for the paycheck. Remember me when you need another yes person to be your scapegoat.

Media acting all surprised when “anti-Woke” means Hitler. That’s exactly what it means.

In response (or so it seems) to her tweeted resignation, someone managed to get Grok to sexually harass her

Yeah ... it's best to grab what money you can now and run ... because you won't be able to later

[–] Lootboblin@lemmy.world 95 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

She was happy to take the bag even after Musk’s nazi salutes but now runs away. I wish I could say ”better later than never’ but she was a CEO, not some random nobody working at the ”basement’. Fuck these people!

Literally haven't heard anything that this person did as CEO in the two years since she joined.

[–] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 45 points 1 week ago (1 children)

she was hired to fix the advertiser exodus. Good reason to quit is this scandal would hurt her bonuses/job function.

If you hang out at a Nazi bar, you're a Nazi.

Sounds loke she found the line for being a fall guy that she wasn't willing to cross.

Not that anyone really believed Elon isn't calling all the shots here.

[–] AFaithfulNihilist@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

Or this is the fall she was brought in for...

[–] CatZoomies@lemmy.world 45 points 1 week ago (5 children)

Thoughts and prayers for the next CEO to not get Grok-blocked.

Thankfully, Linda Yaccarino’s Golden Parachute worked perfectly fine.

A lot of people in this thread are falling for the classic weasel headline reporting trick of using the word "after" to imply a connection, when there's zero evidence in the article body to suggest it means anything other than two different events happened a day apart.

She peaced out 3 months after 2 years. I wonder if she had shit that paid out on her anniversary.
