The billionaire considered buying The Onion years ago, The Daily Beast confirmed, and now a Musk-financed team is hiring the satire outlets staffers for a secret new project.
I will accept cash or a bank transfer.
What is Musk’s political persuasion?
I’m thinking he’s mostly for George Washington but seriously...
Why doesnt this billionaire feel complete?
Musk is a looter.
A visionary perhaps, but he robs you to achieve most of his goals.
He usually finagles LOTS of taxpayer dollars for his projects, in one way or another.
He wants to teach an AI how to recognize satirical humor, and eventually how to be satirically funny - a crucial milestone in the development of AI capable of convincingly mimicking a human and having “personal” interactions.
In humans, the ability to recognize good satire correlates strongly with IQ. Meaning this is pretty advanced stuff, as you would expect from Musk.
