By all accounts the job market is wildly different than it was a few years ago. I’m curious how much AI is being used to screen. I see some guys on LinkedIn with prompt injections in their profiles, I wonder if that would work.

He didn’t directly call Elon stupid. He said that a certain behavior is so stupid it indicates someone shouldn’t be at a tech company. The next step is causal inference. I’m sure Elon is familiar with the nuances of slander laws after he ba

They did incur that cost… for decades. They were in a position where their customers were literally forced to use their product and they still couldn’t create something people wanted to use. Potentially these last two points are related.

Elon is 100% planning to put significant ai compute in space. He is probably planning to do it in a decentralized way. He has the launch platform (spacex), he has the existing power and data infrastructure (starlink), he has the demand side
