I've heard about the "Don't trust AI" portion that I assume came from this?

Seems to me it might be easy to program an AI to have ambition but hard to program empathy.

Given my experience with robotics, I'm inclined to agree. However, Elon Musk and Ray Kurzweil are way smarter than me, so I will listen respectfully to their opinions on any topic.

Made a joke about flamethrowers and is now selling them.

Also, Randy Pitchford said they are going to put them into the next Borderlands and want Elon to write the marketing info for the gun.

I heard "Elon Musk" translates directly from Dutch as "Smells Bad."

Well, maybe I didn't hear that.. maybe I just made it up.

This is inevitably going to lead to a mass burning incident.

On the Twitters, there is some random @erinscafe who actually attended the live public conference about Elon's proposed tunnel to funnel traffic from Hollywood to LA.

Go check his/her feed, it's comedy gold. Based on their comments, Elon should run for office because he's out there solving problems that don't exist by throwing money at them.

I like the crazy shit he spends his money on.

But he needs to sheddep. He's going to get tired of the negativity and stop doing crazy awesome things with his money.
