Elon Musk has updated Grok to look so much to him that AI is having hallucinations: Elon Musk is believed

by

“Rip al Grok Woke has been an honor,” he said This user in X. The chatbot of X has had a somewhat movidito weekend after Musk will announce a significant improvement. Shortly after, Grok began to give some strange answers: messages feeding conspiracy theories, anti -Semitic comments and even began to respond in the first person as if it were Elon Musk himself. Anti-Woke. Musk did not give details about Grok’s update, he just said that “you should notice a difference when you ask Grok”, and go if he noticed. The message that caused the most He was one in which Grok spoke of Hollywood’s “ideological prejudices” as “stereotypes against whites”, ensuring that “ruins magic.” When users continued asking him, Jewish executives came to blame to promote these “anti-transitional” policies. In the same thread, a user asked directly if Elon had altered the code to make him less “woke” and more “like him”, to which Grok replied No, but is “designed by XAI to prioritize the truth about the Wokism” Canallita. Apart from his political bias, the new Grok seems to have instructions to use a more “scoundrel” tone in his answers, even attacking users. A clear example is the exchange that Grok maintained with This Chelsea fan. The user asked how FC Barcelona was going to pay the fine imposed by UEFA and the Bot released a ‘Zasca’ stating that Chelsea’s fine is bigger. No one happy. Although many of the criticism come from the progressive side, the truth is that Grok has nothing happy to conservatives. In another message, Grok said Donald Trump’s cuts They were the culprits of the deaths that occurred in Texas After the recent floods. In the answers they told him that this was false since these cuts would not take effect until 2026, but Grok continued to defend his position. The result is that no one is happy with Grok, on the one hand They accuse him of being of the extreme right And on the other of being Too much left. Are you, Elon? Whatever the content of the update, For many users It is clear that the intention is to create a more aligned Grok with the opinions of its creator. In fact, he had a kind of identity crisis when asked if Elon Musk had been at Jeffrey Epstein’s house. The message has been deleted, but there are screenshots. In it, Grok responded in the first personas if it were Musk itself. When users caught his attention, he denied it sharply, coming to say that the screenshot they showed him It was manipulated. Finally recognized him and apologized for your mistake. Educating Grok. From the Twitter purchase and its transformation into Propaganda toolMusk has proclaimed a Absolutist of Freedom of Expression. With the arrival of Grok, which in the words of Musk himself is The first politically incorrect thing that always tells the truthwe have seen how his toy rebelled against his master, coming to say that Musk was “The biggest misinformation spreader”. Since then they have been refining the answers and with Grok 3, it was learned that The chatbot had been instructed not to mention Trump or Musk. This last update also seems to go in this address: align Grok’s responses with the tone that Musk usually uses, almost as if he were educating him. A lot of potential. Apart from the controversies that seem to wrap everything Musk touches, the launch of Grok 3 surprised us for his intelligence and speedreaching at the height of its competitors in many ways, although still It is still behind. Grok’s greatest asset lies in its integration into X. Since its arrival, Grok has become a kind of FACT-CHECKER For many users. Asking Grok has already become very common in X, the problem is that it still does not be reliable. We already saw it During the conflict between Iran and Israel And, with these updates of clear ideological background, it does not seem that improving reliability is in their plans.

ELON MUSK: “If the Demential Project of Expenditure is approved, América Party will be founded the next day.” It has just been approved

by

Just a month ago, Elon Musk left The Oval Office giving a virtual door to Donald Trump, who reproached that without the millions he had donated to his campaign Today would not be president. In addition, he accused the president of appearing In Epstein’s listlinking Trump with the networks of prostitution and abuse of minors. More calm the spirits, the CEO of Tesla said that its political stage had come to an end And he was going to dedicate all his energies to solve the serious difficulties that the car manufacturer is going through. The promise It has lasted a month. Musk now not only returns to the political field, but has even proposed to create a new political party: America party.

The result was overwhelming: 80.4% of the participants supported the idea of ​​a new game, although the proposal was pause at that time. In Musk’s words: “Our country needs an alternative to Democratic-Republican Unipartisanism so that people really have a voice.” Musk’s criticisms of Trump’s “great and beautiful law.” Since the presentation of Trump’s new budget law, popularly known as the “great and beautiful law” (One Big Beautiful Tax Bill), Musk was especially critical. Touch the image to go to the original message Such and As you collect the BBCMusk denounced that these regulations perpetuate the United States dependence on the debt, raise the expense roof and expand tax exemptions for large fortunes and companies, while cutting health benefits and services for the most disadvantaged. Musk did not hesitate to qualify the law as “a disgusting abomination”, And he added: “Shame for those who have voted it, they know they have done wrong. They know it.” While the new budget law is being debated in the Senate, Musk insists on his offensive and attacking this law on this occasion on this occasion. With A message in xthe millionaire has threatened to boycott the re -election of all those who support the new law in the next primary of the Republican Party, ensuring that “they will lose their primaries next year even if it is the last thing he does on this earth.” For Musk, who have campaigned to reduce government spending and now vote in favor of the greatest increase in debt in history “they should bend the head of shame.” Trump without hair on the tongue. Donald Trump has not remained silent before Musk’s attacks to his bill. From your social networkTrump recalled that Musk “has had more subsidies than any other human being in history, without subsidies, should close the store and return home in South Africa.” In addition, the president has threatened to send to DOGE, the Department of Government Efficiency that Until now Musk had directedto review all the Magnate contracts, ensuring that Cularing on satellitesrockets and electric cars “would save a fortune.” Trump has also stressed that Musk knew from the first moment that the Budget Law was a fundamental part of his campaign, a campaign that Musk himself “had supported with such vehemence.” Vox Populi, Vox Dei. Making use From the popular judgment in Latin, “the voice of the people is the voice of God”, Musk took the survey on the creation of a new party again out of the manga ensuring that If the law is approved, the next day it would found the America party. “Our country needs an alternative to Democratic-Republican Unipartisanism so that people really have a voice,” wrote the millionaire.

Elon Musk asked for 80 hours per week to his workers. Tesla investors reproach him not to do 40

by

Around Elon Musk the idea of incombustible worker Able to work more than 100 hours a week and even sleep In his office as TeslaTo save the bankruptcy. Proud of that image, the millionaire did not hesitate to demand the same to its employees. A group of Tesla investors has sent a surprising request to the Board of Directors of the company: that Musk dedicate at least 40 hours a week to direct the company. This application comes in a Critical moment for Teslawith the company crossing one of its worst crises, according to its own shareholders and with the figure of Musk more questioned than ever. Musk, focus. The debate on Musk’s commitment to Tesla has intensified after recent passage through politics. The signatory investors, among whom is the American Federation of Teachers, which has 7.9 million shares of Tesla, consider that its CEO has been too dispersed, and now require concrete measures to guarantee good governance and the Tesla stability. In her letter addressed to Robyn Denholm, president of the Tesla Board of Directors, the shareholders indicated that “the external activities of Mr. Musk seem to have diverted their time and attention from the active management of Tesla’s operations, as would be expected of any other executive director of a company that is quoted in the stock market.” Musk itself confessed I could barely dedicate one day To direct your companies. 40 hours a week and three -day week. The investor letter sent to the Tesla Board of Directors, requests that any New remuneration plan For Musk, include the obligation to dedicate at least 40 hours per week to the company’s management. Investors even suggest that Musk could group these hours in three days, leaving the other two to address their other business or political activities. “We just want to make sure that you can devote enough time to supervise and, in the case of executives, properly manage the company,” explained PATEL TABLE, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF SOC INVESTMENT GROUP (one of the signatory investors) to Fortune. A plan to replace CEO. Also, shareholders demand the elaboration of a clear succession plan for the CEO position. In this sense, investors do not propose the replacement of Musk as CEO as Yes they made their employees. Its demand is to identify “emergency” successors that can assume the leadership of Tesla in case Musk is not available, with the objective of “incorporating a new person with the right skills to execute Tesla’s business plans.” Some plans that, on the other hand, the Board of Directors must make public with a strategic schedule between 2 and 5 years. In this way, Tesla would have a succession protocol preventing the company from being “delayed” before an unforeseen event. Limitations for managers. In addition to asking for greater involvement from their CEO, investors also ask to limit the responsibilities of the members of the Tesla Board of Directors In other external companies. With this measure they intend to restrict simultaneous positions of managers outside Tesla to avoid conflicts of interest and ensure that the management is fully Focused on the company. “For many years, the amount of time that CEO Musk has dedicated to the management of Tesla has been limited by its multiple private companies and other external activities,” says the letter. Therefore, they ask that the company’s maximum manager can only hold a managerial position outside of Tesla. A BOARD FIELT TO TESLA. Investor requests do not focus only on the management of Musk, they also extend their criticisms to other members of their board of directors. They insist on the need to incorporate at least a “truly independent” vowel into the Board of Directors. This person should not have links with other council members or Elon Musk to avoid nepotism and conflicts of interest personal among the members of the Board. This request arises after the appointment of Jack Hartung, former executive of Chipotle, as a member of the Tesla Board of Directors. Investors They were worried For the professional connection that Hartung and Kimbal Musk, brother of Elon Musk, have cultivated for years. This petition seeks to eliminate servility when negotiating the salary remuneration of the Board of Directors so that the interests of the shareholders and Tesla over the personal ambitions of its members prevail. An example was the Salary Bonus Negotiation granted to Musk in 2018, by a board formed by friends, historical collaborators of Musk and even his own brother.

The anger between Musk and Trump has made Tesla lose 100,000 million dollars. Is the least of his problems

by

Elon Musk and Donald Trump have staged for hours a breakdown of a bloody divorce. With accusations exchanged in which it has threatened to withdraw aid to electric cars, the Disassembly from the International Space Station And it has come to the fore to Epstein’s namethe afternoon has been moved in the United States. The clash has mobilized the entire Maga Movement In favor of each other (including the request of the Elon Musk deportation). And, in the middle of all, Tesla. 14%. Without a doubt, the afternoon figure in the United States. That is what The actions of Tesla came to fall Although, at the end of the day, there was a small rebound that left the action losing more than 11 % at the end of the day. Thus, the price of the action started the day exceeding $ 322 and closed it by $ 284.70. If the final rebound had not occurred, we were talking about the shareholder would have left another 10 dollars per share. However, it is estimated that Tesla has left some 100,000 million dollars Yesterday. On a personal level, Elon Musk has seen 34,000 million dollars volatilize with his discussion yesterday. Although we focus here on Tesla, we must not lose sight of the US government contracts with Starlink or Space X. The youngest of the problems. In total, it is estimated that Tesla has lost $ 100,000 million in the last fight between Trump and Musk. The dialectical crossing has caused a socavon in the graph of the actions but that is not the greatest of the problems. Now, with Trump as an enemy of Musk, Tesla has to row in a complicated scenario. The Robotaxi. It is the first indicated. Elon Musk announced that The first deployment of the robotaxi Tesla would take place in the city of Austin (Texas) whose mayor is from the Democratic Party But there are more derivatives that are intimately linked to the expansion of the service. However, The Governor of Texas is a republican And, in fact, the State is one of the bastions of the party. To this is added that NHTSSA is a state entity in charge of appraining the novelties that want to apply to circulate on the road. With their decisions, for example, it forces operators to have flyers and pedals In their cars, something that I wanted to eliminate Elon Musk in his robotaxis. The NHTSSA. The National Highway Traffic Security Administration (NHTSA) is also responsible for carrying out the accident investigations that occur when driving aid systems are active and has actively pursued the highway of Tesla. Its financing depends on the United States Congress and depends on the Department of Transportation that is directed from the Government. In addition to the previous investigations, it is the one who is approved so that a vehicle can work with a higher level of autonomy. For example, it is the one who rewarded Mercedes with the possibility of circular without the driver paying attention to what you have ahead. Yes indeed, In very specific circumstances. The aid. The withdrawal of the aid to the purchase of electric cars was something that, initially, did not seem to worry Elon Musk. Right now, the company’s leadership is so evident in the United States that they are the competitors of Tesla, who cannot offer the same autonomy-price relationship, Those who have to lose. However, it is clear that the withdrawal of aid can damage the sales of the company and Tesla is not in a position to leave sales right now. In Europe, Every month passing is a bleeding and In China its sales have also decreased To the point that Byd is already the brand that VWe are more purely electric cars In the Asian country. Regulatory credits. Another of the income roads that Tesla has been exploiting in recent years is the EMISSION CREDIT SALE. Donald Trump also showed his intention to prevent this type of practices that allow Tesla to draw income that since 2012 They have added 11,000 million dollars. When accountability before the institutions, companies have to meet emission objectives. If they exceed the maximum allowed figure, they can Buy emission bonds to companies that have not reached said limit. Thus, they lower their average emissions and avoid a strong fine. The beneficiary company receives the money from a competitor but although the number of emissions increases, of course, below the limit that marks the economic punishment. Goodbye to the Stock Exchange. Although it is not the biggest problem, the last six months have been a roller coaster of emotions for Tesla’s shareholders. At the end of 2024, the company closed the records in record, touching the $ 480 per share in mid -December last year. Since then, the controversial messages of Elon Musk, His Nazi greeting during the day Donald Trump took command of the United States or Your support for the AFD ultra -right party in Germany caused a sudden fallen that made us clear to what extent the image of Musk viciaba the stock market of the actions of Tesla. Little by little, the rumors of his departure from the United States government were already consolidating from mid -May, the shares consolidated the rise that had already begun in April. On May 7 the shares were worth $ 276. The confirmation that Musk focused on Tesla He lifted its price up to $ 363. In a few hours the entire climb has eaten. And what is expected. In addition to the obstacles that the United States government can put to the expansion of robotaxis, the elimination of regulatory aid and credits, it remains to be seen how the shareholders will receive divorce between Musk and Trump. Tesla is not going through her best moment. Its sales have collapsed in Europe And in China the rivals have been eating ground for a long time. It remains to be seen if the arrival of the Tesla Model … Read more

The immediate cost for Musk to break with Trump

by

Tesla collapses 14% after The open war between the president of the United States and the richest man in the world. The actions of the electric car manufacturer lost 34,000 million dollars of value in a single day, marking the second largest daily fall in the fortune of Elon Musk. Why is it important. Investors immediately translated presidential threats at real risk for the Musk empire. Trump promised to cancel “billions” in government contracts in allusion to a Spacex that depends on NASA. And Tesla needs federal regulators for its autonomous cars. In figures. The loss of 34,000 million marks the second largest daily fall in Musk’s fortune, only surpassed by the collapse of November 2021. Its assets fell to 335,000 million dollars, far from the peak of almost 500,000 million that it reached after Trump’s electoral victory. The background. The war began when Musk described Trump’s fiscal project as “disgusting abomination.” The president, visibly irritated in the Oval Office, replied: “Elon and I had a great relationship. I don’t know if we will have it more.” Social networks became the battlefield. Musk said: “Without me, Trump would have lost the elections.” Trump replied threatening to eliminate subsidies: “The easiest way to save money is to end Elon’s subsidies.” Musk culminated accusing the president of appearing in the archives of Jeffrey Epstein. At stake. Spacex has contracts worth $ 3,000 million, according to The New York Times. Tesla benefits from tax credits that Trump plans to eliminate, which could cost 1.2 billion annually according to JPMorgan. Both companies depend on federal regulatory decisions. Only a few hours after the confrontation, the White House scheduled a call for Friday. Trump tried to calm the spirits: “It’s fine, it’s going very well.” And Musk reculled on His threat of dismantling the Dragon ship. Reconciliation seems more tactical than definitive. As Musk said: “Trump will be three and a half years as president, but I will be here for more than 40 years.” In Xataka | Elon Musk and the US government have broken their relationship in the worst way: putting the international space station at risk Outstanding image | Wikimedia Commons, White House

Jared Isaacman has been separated after Elon Musk out of the White House

by

Everything was ready for him Multimillonario Jared Isaacmanwhich has flown twice to Spacex space, take NASA’s helm. The Trump administration withdrew its nomination the same day that Elon Musk left the White House. They have kicked him. According to The Washington PostIsaacman was informed on Friday that his nomination as a future NASA administrator, which was made public in December, would be rescinded, despite having already received the approval of the Senate Committee. “The last six months have been enriching and, sincerely, exciting,” Isaacman wrote in his X profile After making the news public. “I have acquired a much deeper understanding of the complexities of the government and the weight that our political leaders have. The President, the NASA and the American people deserve the best: an administrator willing to reorganize, rebuild and bring together the brightest minds to generate the headlines that change the world.” What happened between scenes. Isaacman was seen as An accelerationist of lunar and Martian missionswilling to face China in exploration of the solar system with a smaller budget Thanks to the public-private collaboration. But also as an obvious partner of Elon Musk; recommended by the businessman himself, Despite the conflict of interest. The White House issued a statement with some clues on Saturday: “The mission of President Trump to plant the US flag on the planet Mars” is still standing. But Isaacman was not sufficiently Trumpist, And the cut passed by the influence of Muskwho had donated 275 million dollars for Donald Trump’s campaign: “It is essential that the next NASA leader is in complete alignment with the president’s America America Agenda.” The lowest budget in 65 years. The historic cuts that, if approved by Congress, would reduce NASA’s budget by 24%, have been part of the problem, as Jared Isaacman, like Musk, positioned himself against eliminating scientific missions, the most affected. Isaacman would have had to direct NASA with the lowest budget since 1961. The presidential proposal for 2026 raises A cut of almost 47% For the entire agency science division, from 7,334 million dollars to a few 3,907 million. This massacre would be the immediate cancellation of up to 40 missionsmany of them active and other future, crossed out of “low priority” despite NASA’s efficiency in this branch. Who will be NASA’s boss. Donald Trump will announce it shortly, but Ars Technica He publishes that there is a candidate in consideration: the former Lieutenant of the Air Force Steven L. Kwast, a politically loyal military to Trump who “seems more oriented to see space as a battlefield than as a place for peaceful cooperation and exploration.” Until it becomes official, NASA’s future is a great unknown. In any case, Isaacman’s departure does not seem to be linked to the Boeing and Lockheed Martin lobby, which is working at full speed after the cancellation of the SLS rocket and the Orion ship. “If Kwast is the candidate,” says journalist Eric Berger, “he is definitely not in favor of the traditional space industry, he is a firm defender of the commercial space industry.” Image | Spacex In Xataka | A millionaire has just arrived where NASA had arrived.

Elon Musk asked Apple for 5,000 million for exclusive access to Spacex, according to The Information. They had 72 hours to answer

by

The iPhone have been offering emergency satellite calls Since 2022, but in reality his ambition in that field began much earlier and went much further. Now we have known that there was a peak in that project. One in which Elon Musk offered an exclusive treatment to Apple, but that the company ended up rejecting. Exclusive access to Spacex. According to The Informationin 2022 Elon Musk learned that Apple I was going to launch a satellite connection service with iPhone 14and then contacted those responsible to make them a proposal. He offered Apple to have exclusive access to Spacex to offer satellite connectivity for 18 months if the company paid 5,000 million initial dollars. After that period, Apple could pay $ 1 billion a year for the service provided by Starlink. You have 72 hours. Elon Musk gave Apple only 72 hours to make a decision, and in fact threatened the company with launching their own service for the iPhone that would make the competition. The tycoon played with better letters: it already had a constellation of operational satellites and the technology necessary to do precisely what Apple had projected. Well, no. Apple ended up rejecting Musk’s offer. Of course: announced the support of SOS satellite emergency callsbut thanks to an alliance With GlobalStar. On the other hand, Elon fulfilled his threat: two weeks before the iPhone 14, Spacex were launched announced an agreement With the T-Mobile operator that allowed smartphones users to send and receive messages in areas without mobile coverage. Project Eagle. Apple’s ambition in this area was started before. In 2015 the engineers of the company They started working in Project Eaglean initiative that would create a satellite network with thousands of satellites to provide broadband Internet not only to iPhone, but also households. It was basically Apple’s Starlink. To carry out that Apple proposal allied with Boeing, and the deployment was scheduled for 2019. But he doesn’t want to be an operator. This project ended up canceling in 2016. In The Information it indicates how Apple spent 36 million dollars in the initial tests of Project Eagle, but there were two major problems that led to their cancellation. The first, doubts about economic viability. The second, even more important, that of fear about that launch could affect the crucial relationships that Apple maintains with telephone operators. AT&T, Verizon or T-Mobile-like many others in the rest of the world-could be affected if the company offered this type of service. Apple still does not collect emergency calls. The company continues to offer the SOS satellite emergency call service in the iPhone, but the funny thing is that Still without charging for them. Some analysts believe that Apple fears that if you charge for the service you have to be subject to government regulations that affect operators. Moreover: some employees and managers of the company begin to question the viability of the long -term project. And meanwhile, Starlink extends its claws. What Apple prefers not to do is doing it big elon Musk. A year ago Spacex launched the First set of Starlink satellites with direct connection For smartphones. Today, the Starlink Direct To Cell constellation (DTC) is ready to start Offer LTE coverage from space. It is just an initial offer in beta phase, but still has 10 times more reach that the coverage of any other satellite operator with the same objective. Spacex’s absolute dominance is the great engine of a proposal that can make Starlink, that is already profitableeven more.

Elon Musk turned an abandoned US factory into the most powerful supercomputer in the world. Nobody thought of the neighbors

by

It would be said that Elon Musk has created A perfect circle Around what until recently it was an abandoned factory on the outskirts of Memphis. There has installed Colossusthe most monstrous supercomputer on the planet to boost AI to new limits and that it defines the future of cars (of Tesla). In order for the combo, it is complete to the richest type in the world, everything is in turn fed by the megabaterías of Tesla. A Win Win For Musk’s framework, although with a problem: the neighbors. A colossus … toxic. The story brought it This week the CNN. In the summer of 2024 Musk transformed an old abandoned factory in southwest Memphis into what he himself proclaimed as “the most powerful supercomputer on the planet.” The project, promoted by its artificial intelligence company XAIpromised to turn the city into a New Technological Mecca (The so -called “Delta Digital”) with Quality jobs and dozens of millions in taxes. However, for Botxtown residents, a mostly black and impoverished community that has lived with decades with Industrial pollutionXai’s arrival has meant a déjà vu environmental: A new source of pollution settled without clear permits, with an apparent contempt for public health. A computer that consumes. To feed “Colossus”, XAI installed 35 gas turbines capable of generating Up to 420 megawattsreleasing toxic gases Nitrogen oxidesultrafine and formaldehyde particles. The problem? Who did Without licenses of air required, welcomed to a legal exemption for temporary machinery, which according to experts does not correspond to it. The area already houses 17 polluting facilities, and various studies indicate that the risk of cancer in the area quadrupple acceptable levels For the EPA. Memphis also has the higher rates of children’s hospitalizations by asthma in all Tennessee. Realities. While the mayor of Memphis, Paul Young, celebrated the transformative potential of the project and anticipated more technological investment, local leaders such as state representative Justin Pearson They have denounced have been excluded from the process. The lack of transparency adds to an obvious regulatory collapse: an installation with the power of an electric plant operating without permits in the middle of a residential neighborhood. To this we must add the most recent thermal snapshots (image below) that indicate that at least 33 of the turbines They were operational in April. Following the controversy, XAI finally requested permission for 15 of them and withdrew 12, but, as CNN counteddamage to trust is made. Promises Project defenders say that “leading standards in emissions” will be achieved, but residents see the employer repeat: Employment promises well paid that do not specify (because the reality is that the data centers use very few), while the environmental load falls on those who have less resources to defend themselves. Plus: The story of Botxtown It is not new. Already in 2021, its inhabitants achieved stop a pipeline that would cross their lands, and in 2023 they closed A sterilization plant that emitted ethylene oxide. For them, therefore, XAI is simply the last chapter of a long struggle for the right … to breathe. Innovation or regression. It is the last of the legs to be treated with the controversy. XAI installation reflects a broader national dilemma than We have counted before on the rise of artificial intelligence and its real cost. Amid the enthusiasm for turning the United States into the “Global Capital of AI” (according to New EPA Guidelines Under the government of Donald Trump), the expansion of data centers Devoradors of energy advances without a serious evaluation of its environmental implicationsespecially in vulnerable communities. The unconditional support of the Executive to Musk, one of Trump’s closest advisors, coincided with the Weakening of environmental policiesthe elimination of ecological justice programs and a rhetoric that prioritizes economic efficiency over human health. The first “stone.” The contradiction seems clear: IA is promoted as the future, but it is fed with fossil technologies of the past, generating private benefits while the risks and damage are socialized. “If innovation chains you to fossil fuels, that’s not progress,” Keshaun Pearson remembereddirector of Memphis Community Against Pollution. Thus, residents fear that what happens in Memphis is just a general essay of what could soon be replicated in similar neighborhoods throughout the country. A tireless struggle. He counted An NBC report That in Botxtown, indignation coexists with fatigue. Many, such as Sarah Gladney (respiratory and resident patient to a few km from the installation), feel they live in a perpetual battle. The possibility of a second meginstalization of XAI, already projected in the city, only increases the sensation of siege. “It seems that we are always at war,” He underlined. A paradox, since while local officials speak of economic transformation, neighbors simply speak of survival. In the background, the collision between the promises of peak technology and the old reality of systemic pollution raises an uncomfortable question: Who pays the price of this digital revolution? In the southwest Memphis, the answer seems sadly clear.

Elon Musk got outstanding in computer science. Who designed the computers they used did not approve with the same ease

by

Become one of the greatest fortunes in the history of humanity Obviously it requires certain skills, especially when that fortune has been obtained in The technology sector. Who stands out in the technological field, tends to qualify as “technology geniuses.” Elon Musk, for example, obtained excellent notes in complicated matters as computer science. Paradoxically, Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, the most relevant names in the development of the computers that Musk used in their classes, did not stand out For your good notes During your student stage. His intelligence had a lot to do with it. Steve Jobs, the approved scraping A psychological report Prepared by the FBI on the student profile of Steve Jobs revealed that Apple’s co -founder had an average grade (GPA per grade point avenge) in secondary school of 2.65, which is equivalent to obtaining school grades between C and B. which could be considered as a scraping approved. However, despite obtaining such tight qualifications, the report He pointed outthat Jobs was extremely intelligent and with an exceptional ability to mold people of its environment manipulating truth and reality to achieve its objectives. When Jobs Fundo Apple, Those skills They served to attract the best talent by his side and convince them that they were able to design the best products in the world. Bill Gates, scattered talent In his autobiographical book, ‘Code Source: My beginnings’Gates reveals that during his high school in the exclusive Lakesid school he obtained grades that did not adjust to those of a preteen with the ability to quickly learn the complicated mathematical concepts that read in the books. “He was an avid generalist in a place where people focused on concrete matters. He didn’t fit, in summary, and he didn’t know how to solve it. So I pretended he didn’t want to do it.” The millionaire recognized that, although he was able to learn the subjects before his classmates, his attitude and behavior in class and with the rest of the students it was not adequate, and he did not feel motivated by the issues studied in class. However, all that changed when he discovered that he could create programs with the teletype of the “computer room.” Gates acknowledged that this moment marked a before and after in his passage through Secondary. He managed to focus And his notes improved immediately. ELON MUSK: Bright computer notes Elon Musk is the exception confirming the rule. A few weeks ago, Maye Musk, mother of the richest person on the planet With an estimated fortune of 419.6 billion dollars, he published in Your X profile An unpublished document: Elon Musk’s computer notes. Touch the image to go to the original message In his message, Maye Musk explained that, while reviewing his old family photos, he found a notification of the computer notes of the University of Pretoria of his son Elon Musk when he was 17 years old. “My genius child. Mom proud,” wrote the mother of the millionaire. In its qualifications it can be seen that the South African millionaire obtained the maximum score (A+) in programming and computer use skills. In response to his mother’s message, Musk said: “They told me that I obtained the highest score in engineering aptitude they have ever seen.” In other words, not bad for a human, as a future AI would say. “ High capabilities, low grades. The bad academic results – especially in the pre -university stages – of many of the people who have subsequently been considered “technological geniuses”, are not casual. The Scientific literature In this regard It is extensive and points to the existence of a link between the people with high capacitiesintellectuals with a Low school performance. Data from the Ministry of Education and Science estimated that around 70% of students with high capacities registered low school performance. The main reason for school failure among these students with high capacities is the lack of motivation to follow the rhythm of the classes. This, as Gates said in his book, It generates dispersion And his curiosity was aimed at learning on other issues that had nothing to do with the subject he had to study. On the other hand, the social factor and Its integration with the rest of the students It is also a key component for school success in these cases.

This literary science fiction utopia advocates the disappearance of millionaires. And Musk, Bezos and Zuckerberg love

by

The saga of ‘the culture’ of Iain M. Banks is one of the series of Science fiction books most important and influential of the history of gender. And among his fans are names as notorious of the Tech sector as Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg either Jeff Bezos. What is still curious: the message and background of the saga are in one direction, it could be said, diametrically opposite to the businesses led by these billionaires. So … why do you like so much? The culture of ‘culture’. The saga consists of no less than ten books, the first of them written in 1987 and the last in 2012. In them there is a society in which the pan-human (similar to us in appearance, but without being completely clear what relationship they keep with humanity) coexist with artificial intelligences, having overcome any problem of scarcity of the past. All citizens can careless work: technology takes care of everything. Until death is a problem of the past: diseases have been left behind, and minds can move from one body to another when bodies do not give more. Below the work. ‘Culture ‘is one of the most clearly positioned science fiction works in political terms, already a difference from conservative thought classics such as’ the rebel rebellion’ of Ayn Rand Or allegations of white supremacism not very camouflaged such as ‘The landing’ or ‘Turner’s newspapers’, leans towards the socialist utopia, more in the line of other classications such as ‘Iron heel’ by Jack London. In the Society of ‘Culture’ goals are reached Socialist theory: Post-scarce society, abolition of money and private property, radical equality, voluntary work, collective management, absence of coercive laws, personal freedom … an authentic utopia. Stones to the roof itself. And since there are no inequalities for economic reasons, the same concept of oligarchs is aberrant. Banks hated the idea that a lot of money will concentrate on a few hands. As he exposed This article in Voxthe solution to antisocial behavior in ‘culture’ is not the legal punishment, but to make the offender a social out of theory, cancellation. Something against what they have manifested openly These billionaires. And well, then there is the subject of the genre completely fluid in this utopian society: the rigid genres are completely overcome. And we already know how little they like Musk, Bezos either Zuckerberg LGTBI ideas. What do you see? It is clear What do they like about ‘the culture’ then: The fascinating vision of technology as a solution to all problems. From facilitating the most daily tasks to overcome in space battles, everything is mediated by artificial technology and intelligences. Of course, for Banks technology is not an end in itself, but a tool in search of a more just and equitable society. And without millionaires. But it is easy for these oligarchs of technology to skip that part, because the comfortable is to get carried away by the sissured show that also proposes ‘culture’ (which are adventure novels, not thesis). Of course, it should be noted that there are voices, such as The journalist Max Readwho affirm that perhaps Musk, Bezos or Zuckerberg have not completely misunderstood ‘culture’. Especially if we compare it with the findings of the other utopia par excellence of science fiction, ‘the dispossessed’ of Ursula K. Leguinis of dyes closest to anarchism. Possessing utopias. As technology is more complex, the bridges of understanding between science fiction and innovation are more constant. Science fiction has helped us to imagine the future and carry it out, and therefore the technological elites of Silicon Valley have reinterpreted utopias as inspiration, and even sometimes as Brandingas Musk did Putting Space X ship namesinspiring Neuralink’s own concept and defining itself as an “utopian anarchist of those described by Iain M. Banks.” He is not the only one who appropriates the saga: Bezos will adapt the first book of ‘La Cultura’ In Prime Video. And Zuckerberg promoted the saga in your reading club In 2015. However, this possession of the ideas of Banks or other utopias as a generator of imaginary and technological concepts has very obvious inconveniences when it goes from socialist utopia to business narrative. The critical sense of literary works is diluted and enters a paradox: that of the technocratic utopia. Banks is not here to meet her, but something tells us that he would have produced chills.
