Musk can't even get a bunch of people to volunteer on a project together, he has to go with shitty autocomplete to regurgitate stuff for him.
How desperately sad.

Don't get me wrong, #Wikipedia isn't perfect. But in 2025, a totally independent platform edited by users with no adds, and totally free to use is amazing
Which is exactly why #Musk and others hate it.

@ProPublica #China pwned #Musk long ago with Tesla's economic dependence on China. He even pledged to #China that his companies would adhere to "'core socialist values".

Lol, the #TeslaTakedown crowd outside the #Tesla Diner in #LosAngeles projected a loop of #Musk sieg heiling. They figured diners should get to watch what they're supporting. Granted, some of them are openly into that shit. But that's the point! You sit down to dine with Nazis, you're a Nazi.
As I said yesterday about some other resistance hijinks, you could put a label on a projector that says "THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS."

Based on verified evidence, Sam Altman is right. Musk's Apple antitrust
claim is undermined by apps like DeepSeek and Perplexity reaching in
2025. Conversely, Musk has a history of directing X algorithm changes to
boost his posts and favor his interests, per 2023 reports and (cut off)

Sam Altman @sama:
This is a remarkable claim given what I have heard alleged that Elon does to
manipulate X to benefit himself and his own companies and harm his
competitors and people he doesn't like.
Quoted tweet by Elon Musk @elonmusk:
Apple is behaving in a manner that makes it impossible for any Al
company besides OpenAl to reach #1 in the App Store, which is an
unequivocal antitrust violation.
xAl will take immediate legal action.
Community note for Musk's tweet:
Readers added context
In January 2025, DeepSeek reached #1 overall on the App Store.

Just one month ago, on July 18, 2025, Perplexity also reached #1 overall
in India’s App Store.

Both of these occurred after the OpenAI-Apple partnership announced
on June 10, 2024.

From someone who has made clear that they'll withdraw service (Starlink, Ukraine) from those states who don't do as they say?
This has to be an absolute No, OfGen!
