Interesting. Unfortunately Musk's personal brand is so poisonous that I would never let him anywhere near my data. I'm curious if big businesses will have similar concerns and avoid tools from SpaceXAI regardless of how they are? I guess lots are already using it by default since the Cursor acquisition.
- datadrivenangel 2mo agoCursor by inertia, but the X ownership is a big X against it...

- tuesdaynight 2mo agoIf you have the time and are willing to do it, go check his Twitter profile. You can agree with him, but you will get it why some companies would avoid his products
- taoh 2mo agoI don't follow him. Sometimes he appeared on my timeline and I skimmed through. I don't agree or disagree with him strongly. There are some companies that will use or avoid certain products or people. Thus there was my question. If the question looked political, it wasn't my intention. Thx.
- tuesdaynight 2mo agoI don't get it why your previous comment were flagged. I understood your question and tried to answer it without being political as well. Don't worry about it

- bakies 2mo agoWhat about the site they posted the comment on
- taoh 2mo agoI was merely asking a question. I'm not a native English speaker so if my comments sounded offending, I didn't mean it. I don't follow Musk on X. I have no political interests. I read news about SpaceX, Tesla, and X and that's it. I'm focusing on building my own product and company. Just somehow curious when I read the previous comments so I asked.
- bakies 2mo agoAlright I apologize if it was a serious inquiry. He's been very involved in Nazi politics in the USA and Europe and his companies show exactly no ethics. Here's what I can think off the top of my head. Grok is a child porn generator, and primary use is "nudification." He's got illegal gas turbines powering his data centers. Grok code uploads your home dir to his cloud when launched. He paid people to vote for trump. Said he'd go to jail if a Dem was elected. Gave two Nazi salutes at Trump's inauguration. Unbanned white supremacists on Twitter. Banned trans speech at the same time (big free speech guy was the excuse for unbanning nazis). When he was in the government DOGE deregulated his own industries and cut jobs that were specifically investigating him. Saved no money which was the whole goal. Doge also appeared to steal a ton of data related to social security and other sensitive stuff. When he launches compute into space to avoid regulation I'm sure it's not because of land but so the FBI can't seize it.

- Adrig 2mo agoMusk burned billions in brand value by renaming Twitter, and he'll be doing the same with Cursor. The Cursor brand was the only wedge he had with enterprise customers, who seem to avoid Grok products altogether
