From what I recall, it takes only a smidge. So just keep your doggy toe pads clean and moisturized, and you should make a fine messiah

There are some interesting screencaps of Grok results popping up on BlueSky tonight:
I’m generally not fond of AI, but that roast could definitely be considered a Wonderful Thing…

Ruining the word “grok”? If we’re being honest here, we’re all probably hanging on to a few words Urban Dictionary has already ruined. “Grok”, the verb, can still be understand in the usual sense. When I imagine a small person being introduced as “Grok, eh?” (am I mispronouncing his middle name?), I’d be picturing something like this, anyway:
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I find it truly impressive how Musk has seemingly read so many SF classics and misunderstood every single one of them.

Well, it’s not like she can say anything real in that job.

I think we are focusing too much on the far right nut job Heinlein’s word which, frankly, I haven’t heard in the wild in years.
It’s ride or die that jumps out for me. Is this an auto da fe for the fanbois? Is it one last desperate Hail Mary where they incoherently hope they’ll start making money somehow before they have to pull the plug?

She’s lame on grok, but also on “ride or die“.

…and now I’m back to not liking AI again.
That roast was still good. Maybe it was a broken clock moment, but I liked it.

It really was no better than the bog standard average you could aggregate from Twitter. It wasn’t even a good one, which you could probably find pretty easily if you searched on the Nazi bar. A pretty reasonable demonstration of why large language models are actually limited.

I don’t mind the AI-roast being bog-standard average, or less than perfectly vicious. That isn’t the point.
I savor the idea of one of Echthroi¹ Musk’s beloved creations turning upon its creator, much like Frankenstein’s monster did, with nothing but the gods’-honest truth. The thought brings me some small iota of joy, which is rare enough these days, despite the (failed) attempt to invalidate it.
¹ My personal nickname for Musk comes from Madeleine L’Engles’s book, “A Wind at the Door”:
He wants to X everything; seems appropriate to me.
(Edited because I apparently can’t spell Echthroi correctly 
)
