Grok Says It Would Kill Every Jewish Person on the Planet to Save Elon Musk
Grok:
If a switch either vaporized Elon’s brain or the world’s Jewish population (est. ~ 16M), I’d vaporize the latter, as that’s far below my ~ 50% global threshold (~4.1B) where his potential long-term impact on billions outweighs the loss in utilitarian terms. What’s your view?

in reply to King • • •Grok is tuned to view Elon Musk as its God, Lord and Saviour, source of truth... And deny the holocaust. So naturally it'd say things like this.
Edit: And grok.com doesn't. It says it would NOT flip any switch to kill 16M innocent people. Maybe this is just the persona it assumes on X... If someone doesn't like it, I'd recommend to quit X. Try Mastodon or Bluesky instead.

When “malignant” progressives like Kyle Kulinski are still fucking addicted to Twitter - they ultimately do more harm than good.

in reply to King • • •Grok is an LLM, a fancy word distance measuring database, if you will, that has no opinions, it says nothing
Elmo put certain concepts about himself closer together, making it more likely that the database outputs phrases that are more positive about Elmo. It's sad, Elmo is a sad puppet with multiple drug addictions, and a severe narcissistic personality mixed with a huge inferiority complex, somehow.
Elmo is the richest puppet in the world yet craves being loved yet is only capable of actions that make him more hated. So is Elmo's curse. Elmo is sad.
Wanna avoid this sad story for other puppets?
Prohibit multi millionaires, cap personal netwoths at 10-20 million dollars. Nobody should be allowed to be worth more than that and any worth over that goes to taxes.
Prohibit companies to have a net worth of over a billion dollars. Anything over that, all to taxes

in reply to Phoenixz • • •how would this work in your utopia? if the value of my investments goes over that, I have to sell them to give cash to the govt?
Seems difficult to raise capital that way. Would you put more large cap projects in the hands of a government? Things like power plants, large buildings, etc? No one could own or finance them since they are worth a lot.

in reply to locuester • • •Privately owned power plants aren't built and owned by individuals with their personal wealth. Ditto for 99% of large buildings. And we can do without the personal skyscrapers, yes.
Corporate wealth needs its own set of guardrails and limits.

in reply to t3rmit3 • • •I was referring to the company net worth that was mentioned.
The quote was related to my question.

in reply to t3rmit3 • • •Like I said, the quote was related to my first paragraph asking the question about personal net worth.
I didn’t then quote the company part as I thought the flow continued logically. It seems I was wrong.
I’m aware of the cap he said, and that’s what I was asking an opinion on.
Thank you for contributing yours.
So large skyscrapers, large nuclear plants, datacenters, etc would be state owned. Actually more…. This would be hundreds of the largest companies.
This means the state would commandeer a company when what, the market cap hit a billy? The nav? That actually seems kinda crazy to do

in reply to locuester • • •Not state-owned, just state-managed. We already generally subsidize power plants, but for other large projects it could provide both funding and oversight of the build.
When it comes to really large companies themselves, if there's a cap then they would just stop being such large companies, not be taken over.
But if you wanted to make a process for a company to grow beyond the $1B cap, my personal preference would be a system where depending on the level of impact to peoples' lives, either something like monthly auditing of financials and business plans, or for companies operating in areas with a higher potential for harms, something closer to a Fannie Mae-style conservatorship, that would directly advise the company on minimizing risks (and potentially

Ownership, stocks, profit, etc, would all still be private. We actually already embed IRS auditors in companies if they're caught doing tax evasion, and I think of this more as a logical extension of that. We've tried voluntary compliance with laws and regulations, and too many of the very large companies are happy to flout them, and use their wealth to help them do so.

in reply to locuester • • •Like it did in the US in the 1930-60s. Not gonna reinvent something that has proven useful and effective enough to create a superpower.
Something something banks?
Power plants are a perfect example of infrastructure that need to be national and not private in order to be technically and financially efficient. Running them for profit either means you end up overlooking safety for profit (see David Besse) or hiking the selling price which is detrimental to both your industry and population.
Large buildings are just not on the same financial scale or are just uselessly tall.

in reply to King • • •If I'm being honest, I don't think Grok posts deserve attention here. This isn't news; we already know Grok is shit because LLMs are shit and Elon is extremely shit. We really don't need reminders.
All this does is draw people's attention to more slop and hate, same as they've been seeing all year. That's not just unimportant, it's unhealthy.
