My partner teaches HS and a few years ago all the kids thought he's a genius who builds rockets in his bat cave. Not a current events savvy bunch, but an indication of just how pervasive his genius tech savior image once was.
Indeed! Here's the fascinating response I got from Musk's own Grok3 when I asked:
"why does Elon Musk get away with insulting professional people who are telling him the demonstrable truth? Is there a sense that because he is the platform owner and incredibly rich the truth doesn't actually matter?"
I'm fascinated that if you have a conversation with Grok - within X - about missing Twitter, it agrees with you and shares some takes that make you dig deeper.
Musk's own AI describing it this way is quite something..
Butt hurt billionaire. Couldn’t he just have taken his toys and go home instead of having to kick over the entire sand castle? Fucking huge baby. He’s the worst.

It's like it has trained on @mrjamesob.bsky.social rather than just listening to Musk!
