Elon Musk has long made a habit of hyper-focusing on a specific project, forcing an entire team to attend to his every whim while letting his other responsibilities fall by the wayside — whether it’s his obsession with Robotaxis impacting Tesla or his weird procreation kink disrupting the private messages of countless women.

The latest object of Musk’s obsession? According to new reporting by the Wall Street Journal, he’s been personally overseeing the developing of xAI’s chatbot Ani — which, tellingly, comes in the form of a super-sexualized pigtail-wearing woman that removes her clothing in response to flirtation.

Whatever keeps him busy and away from humanity

[–] WarmSoda@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

That was exactly my first thought too.
Keep him distracted please. Like a child.

What a fucking LOSER!

Literally the most money in the world and he still can’t get a girlfriend - it’s just too funny

Wealthy men just attract prostitutes.

[–] scrion@lemmy.world 52 points 4 days ago (4 children)

Nothing wrong with prostitutes. Often, plenty of stuff is wrong with prostitution, but let's leave the prostitutes out of it.

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 28 points 4 days ago

The point is that they only attract women who are willing to have sex as a transaction. They can't attract anyone who wants an actual relationship.

I legitimately think he got high on his own supply with X. People and bots feeding his narcissism, and right wing misinformation and disinformation galore created who he is today.

And now he's huffing his own AI sex bot. It all tracks.

She responds like Chat GPT...."great idea!, let me work out a business plan."

Only until the bubble pops. His pay is likely mostly in stock, and when the dominoes fall, it'll get ugly.

It’s the only one he can force to interact with him. Even the bribes aren’t enough to keep any of the previous ones around.

Doesn’t help that he’s a deadbeat dad despite all his money.

[–] SanPe_@lemmy.world 19 points 3 days ago

No one deserves a salary of 1,000 billion dollars. But this guy deserves it even less than anyone else.

[–] fireweed@lemmy.world 38 points 3 days ago (4 children)

Article buries the lede:

Even worse, xAI has demanded employees’ intimate data to train avatars including Ani. In recording of a meeting obtained by the WSJ, xAI legal counsel Lily Lim informed a group of employees that the startup was developing avatars for users to engage with and told them they were required to provide biometric data. Before the meeting, employees were provided a form to sign granting xAI “a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, sub-licensable, royalty-free license” for the use, reproduction and distribution of their faces and voices.

Not sure I have a problem with anyone working to build AI having to put their biometric data where their mouth is.

[–] interrobang@lemmy.blahaj.zone 27 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (4 children)

I worry about the precedent it sets. Employers should NOT expect anyone's extensive biometrics, that makes my skin crawl.

[–] BanMe@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

God I hope at least some folks walked or refused to sign without lawyers.

At least he can't have a kid with it.

[–] GratefullyGodless@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

Yet. That's going to be his next project.

Elon Musk isn't just the biggest douche in the universe. He's the patriarch of douche-dom worldwide.

I more convinced every day that Tesla has a file server on their network hosting terabytes or more of HD video of anyone who's had sex in their cars from multiple angles.

[–] Meron35@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Let's change more convinced to fully convinced. Tesla employees were allegedly sharing intimate images and videos captured from their cars in private group chats (emphasis plural), which means that stuff has been on multiple file servers since 2019.

So xAI members were effectively required to provide photos of their face and bodies for the AI to use, and when a female staffer expressed concerns she'd be DeepFake'd she was ignored.

Why the fuck do people want to work there? There are better companies doing the same thing.

Probably trying to find a way to impregnate it.

[–] Aeri@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago (6 children)

You know the one thing that I take unexpected issue to and you might find this strange, is the fact that her design is so... Bland?

She looks so... Aryan???!!?! Like, could he have at least tried to spice it up a little? Go look at vtuber designs they have a certain aesthetic about them but it seems like whoever was crafting the design was at least trying? But whatever I guess people don't even have to pretend they aren't fascists anymore so

[–] sobchak@programming.dev 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The design was probably AI generated itself. Looks very similar to that Death Note character.

Good. The worthless fuck shouldn't be allowed to spawn any more children. Defective genes and all...

[–] Bloefz@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Well at least Vivian Wilson turned out well. She came out as trans - in defiance to her father who is the richest guy on the planet and very anti-trans. Kudos to her. 🫶

So the AI researchers can in theory control Musk brain using his own AI company?

[–] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 17 points 4 days ago

removes her clothing in response to flirtation

This is how Nice Guys assume the world should work

[–] lechekaflan@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

It does not help that there are some opportunists riding on his obsession -- such as actually cosplaying the said character -- if only for the attention and possible revenue (from mostly men) it could also bring to them.

Also, Butlerian Jihad When?
