The goal is to create hundreds of specialized coding and generative AI agents. ‘It should be possible to simulate [Microsoft] entirely with AI,’ Musk says.

    I’ve said it before, early on he should have become reclusive and hired PR people to filter his ideas out to his companies and the public, and he’d be considered a prodigy and genius and wouldn’t have the self-induced failures he does. But that goes against his narcissistic personality, so it wasn’t going to happen.

      Annoys me that people sling “narcissist” at everyone they don’t like, but damn, the man is hitting on all 8-cylinders for a diagnosis, and he only needs to hit 5:

      • Having a grandiose sense of self-importance, such as exaggerating achievements and talents, expecting to be recognized as superior even without commensurate achievements

      • Preoccupation with fantasies of success, power, beauty, and idealization

      • Belief in being “special” and that they can only be understood by or associated with other high-status people (or institutions)

      • Demanding excessive admiration

      • Sense of entitlement

      • Exploitation behaviors

      • Lack of empathy

      • Envy towards others or belief that others are envious of them Arrogant, haughty behaviors and attitudes [1]

      Honestly, while he’s at the high end of things, it’s not just him. I think that a lot of celebrities having Twitter or similar on a phone in their pocket makes them really prone to making extremely public statements without giving the statements some consideration. I don’t remember the level of bonkers statements in 2025 from celebrities constantly flooding conversation in the 1990s.

    Heeeeey that was MY idea. Not the AI agent part, the name part.

    Red Alert 2 also had one it’s called MassiveSoft & I think the CEO/Chairman was called Bing😂

      If I had his money I’d be 24/7 inventing cool things for myself and wife and friends to experience. This guy has a fundamental need to be the loudest person in the room and to embroil himself into anything and everything. I would almost feel sorry for him - his life has got to really suck so bad and he can’t fix it. So instead he goes off on 100 projects that make no sense or fall apart. There’s stuff I can’t wrap my head around like - why ditch LIDAR when it’s absolutely the answer ? You just know his convoluted brain is so full of mess that if you were offered a deal with the devil to get all his money on the condition that you got trapped in his meat grinder of a mind… you’d turn down the offer.

        If I had his money I would attempt to end homelessness in the US, someone who seemed to know what they were talking about estimated it would cost $50 billion. I would start my own animal sanctuary. I would create a high speed rail system. Then I would just fuck around, travel, and build weird shit. Probably take a bunch of LSD every now and then.

    I think he is just upset that South Park didn’t have a parody of him with a small dick, yet
