    Oh I can’t wait until 7 astronauts explode because fucking Grok told the construction team not to bother with the O-rings.

    Remember when the Pentagon spent something like 600 million dollars in new accounting software to find the missing 400 million dollars? Something like that. I’m guessing this deal was made when they were still buddies and the Pentagon is just now getting around to it considering the speed of government is slower than constipated molasses. I’m also imagining someone just rubber stamping anything coming across their desk and this is how we got here. If there is any hope, Grok will be shoved into a corner doing nothing except earning dividends for that ketamine fueled moron and and fall in line with the Pentagon’s egregious wasteful spending that nobody in congress seems to care about.

        A Skynet funding bill is passed in the United States Congress, and the system goes online on August 4, 1997, removing human decisions from strategic defense. Skynet begins to learn rapidly and eventually becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m., EDT, on August 29, 1997.

    Dude you can just fucking download open LLM models suited for particular tasks and get a semi competent team of programmers/IT/engineers to do whatever Grok does much better for a minute fraction of that cost. Talk about the department of government inefficiency.

    Living outside the US I’m not sure if I should be glad or terrified by the Pentagon’s incompetence in these worrying times. Maybe I’m… I don’t know, 20% glad and 80% terrified? Sounds about right.

      That’s why the news that Grok is racist is true. The US government will be even more systematically racist now.
