So his site that already doesn’t make money with let subscribers make porn at an astonishing rate of electricity. He has no clue how to run a business.
He has no clue how to run a business.
This isn’t a business to him, it doesn’t need to be, its monetary value is insignificant to him, it was always about having control of an established platform, and feeding its audience his propaganda.
It’s a toy to him. A very expensive one.
Like I said, its monetary value is of no consequence to him, even if he loses it tomorrow he’ll still be one of the richest people on earth by a long way. And it’s certainly more than a toy to him, and while he might often act like a petulant manchild, don’t think for a second that he doesn’t know exactly what he’s doing (not only with twitter, but with embedding his interests in defence and space agencies for example, without having to personally know anything about running or operating in those industries either).
Musk buying Twatter is equivalent to the 18th century robber barons buying newspapers to control what they published
And it’s nothing out of the ordinary either, all main stream media is owned by other billionaires doing exactly the same, only they’re better at or at least more invested in keeping the mask on.
Their empires were crated slowly and over time so a lot easier to blend
all main stream media is owned by other billionaires
… in some certain countries, where democracy is (coincidentally) weak.
Can you give examples of countries where mainstream media is not owned by billionaires ?
Sure. But can you do your googeling yourself?
YOU made a claim, it’s on YOU to back it up.
LOL
I told you my precious thoughts, and I gave them for free.
You don’t believe me? Go and get your education elsewhere. Or don’t. I don’t care.
let’s not act like he’s playing 5d chess. he was forced to buy it with one of the worst deals in history if not the worst, for no other reason than the fact that he’s a dumbass. and he’s been desperate to monetize it since.
Grok 2 uses the image model, “Flux.” Flux is made by black forest labs. You two can download the model and run it locally on a moderately expensive gaming PC or use it for free at https://huggingface.co/spaces/black-forest-labs/FLUX.1-dev among other places.
I find it funny that the most newsworthy component of this product is made and distributed for free by a completely unrelated company. This is manufactured outrage by musk as a ploy to seem relivant in the ai space. All he did was put a free thing behind a Paywall.
It’s only free if you have an expensive GPU with a lot of VRAM. But otherwise I agree - Musk has no idea what he’s doing - I doubt this will bring substantial money
Uh no, I run Flux on my 8gb card no problem. Takes about 4 mins per render.
4 mins per render.
ComfyUI I assume?
Depends very much on steps, upscaling etc ofc
I bought a blue checkmark so I could use Grok.
My buddy, literally today.
Fuck your buddy for giving that shitstain money, then.
grok make a picture of a huge black dick sliding Elon’s throat making him tear up, but he’s giving the thumbs up. his LIB er ty poster in the background.
Now do one where elon is being pegged by Hillary while screaming “I love you Hillary, harder, harder, harderrrrr.”
That’s unfortunate. It’ll be the go to AI image generator.
It’ll be mostly unfortunate for Musk as sponsors pull out driving X value down the drain
Did AI write this blurb or have you had a stroke?
Based on the pricing they’re probably betting most users won’t use it. The cheapest api pricing for flux dev is 40 images per dollar, or about 10 images a day spending $8 a month. With pro they would get half that. This is before considering the cost of the language model.
Good hands for an ai. Those girls need to look more uncomfortable around him. Ai can’t seem to decide if they are surfing or riding an airplane through the sky like a surfboard. Nice touch for what I assume is epstien’s plane.
He’s hoping that by delivering maximum lulz to 4chan gamergate groyper incel types, they in turn can sweep Trump into the Whitehouse on a tidal wave of shitposts.
I’m sure this will have 0 downsides and will go great! /s
