Vibe coded Operating System. And Office suite. And cloud offering. And Enterprise. And SaaS. And game console.

What could go wrong?

What could go wrong?

Seeing how Microsoft (and Windows 11 in particular) is doing lately, and how practically every single Windows update is breaking something important, a lot.

We've already got one vibe coded Windows. We don't need another one.

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]

So stupid that I can't even tell if an Onion article is real or not.

Shut the fuck up, Elon. Can't you just quietly enjoy being the richest person on Earth?

[–] tal@lemmy.today 24 points 3 days ago

The wealth was meaningless without the attention.

If it weren’t for the power usage, I’d say let’s see how this plays out. Would be funny to watch it implode and maybe VCs would finally realize AI sucks.

I just watched something earlier that showed a clip of him saying how he was warning everyone early on about the dangers of AI because he was genuinely scared of the harm it could do.

Glad he’s not a hypocrite or anything.

Thst's not how this works. THAT'S NOT HOW ANY OF THIS FUCKING WORKS**!!!**

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 23 points 2 days ago (1 children)

But has musk ever been wrong?

Apart from hyperloop, solar rooftops, Tesla semi, passenger rockets, car tunnels under cities, robotaxi, flying Tesla's, humans on mars in 2022, self driving Tesla's making the owner money, and of course cybertruck.
