On this otherwise gloomy day of socialists winning elections, I am cautiously optimistic about Grok and Grokipedia to provide unbiased information to the undecided middle about every topic imaginable. I am only now realizing that if I tag @grok in my ruminations, it will

Click on the Grok answers to follow threads. They go deep and Grok does a masterful debating job. I am very hopeful that Grok and Grokipedia will help the curious middle get better informed and not fed biased media lies.

This is the best thing I've read all week. A UK politician took offense at Elon's characterization of the UK rape scandal, and started asking Grok about it. Open the thread and read how Grok logically tears him to shreds. He also seems to think Grok is a person rather than an
Hi @grok. Is life in English towns akin to shires inhabited by hobbits waiting in fear of 1000s of people preparing to rape their children.

Worth reading.
1/ This chart has been making the rounds lately, and since I am an American and have both worked in a mental hospital and been a criminal defense lawyer, I have opinions. The idea that insane people belong in institutions came under 2-pronged attack in the 1950s and 1960s.

Backstory:
Sergio Gor was a Trump donor that had outsized influence inside the White House. Gor hated Elon and worked to drive a wedge between him and Trump. It was Gor who convinced Trump to ditch Isaacman. Last weekend Gor was kicked upstairs to be the ambassador to India.

Yea! This is the right decision and an impressive one since this is Trump reversing his previous decision to pull Jared’s nomination. While Trump won’t say he made a mistake, this is a clear tacit admission that he did make a mistake, and he’s fixing it.
Donald J. Trump Truth Social 11.04.25 05:42 PM EST Sean Duffy has done an incredible job as Interim Administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). This evening, I am pleased to nominate Jared Isaacman, an accomplished business leader, philanthropist,

The first of many humanoid bot companies bites the dust. K-Scale has just closed shop and refunded all deposit holders (like me) of their $100 deposits. Kudos to K-Scale’s founders for doing that. While they had raised some seed level capital, they couldn’t cross the funding

Worth noting that Elon fought to make this deposition excerpt public. Why? He’s fighting a PR battle as well as a court battle against Sam Altman. Elon fights with his gloves off.

A partial transcript of Ilya's deposition in Elon's lawsuit against OpenAI dropped and various people have given their takes. The things that struck me: Q: "Do you recall Helen Toner telling employees that allowing the company to be destroyed would be consistent with the

Elon on Joe Rogan confirms the Robovan is coming. I was getting worried because we haven't seen any indication of its production. However, we see hints in @HinrichsZane drone flyovers that it might be manufactured at the Tesla semi cab factory in Nevada, which is due to come on

Elon here is reminding people that SpaceX’s Starship program is by far the most consequential space program in history. We are literally witnessing history that will be talked about in 100 years. And yet it gets derided in the press.

Why is Tesla’s stationary storage Megapack so important? Our electric grid is a complex amazing beast. It has scattered power plants, often far away from concentrated consumers (like dense urban cities) and must react quickly to changes in demand, for example when the day heats

Full episode, also worth a listen. My favorite part was them reminiscing how effed up Twitter was when Elon took it over. Mind boggling.

Elon today with a very balanced take on climate change. I agree with him 100% on this. Worth a short listen. Would be nice to see US govt policy reflect this, but that’s asking too much.

So I put a deposit on a sports car, and will instead get a flying car?

This is hilarious! I thought these quotes were satire, but no, they are real.
These Harvard students…did not react well to the report on grade inflation: “The whole entire day, I was crying. I skipped classes on Monday, and I was just sobbing in bed because I felt like I try so hard in my classes, and my grades aren’t even the best. It just felt
