One reason this is happening is that, at some point, we allowed the ulta-rich to rebrand greed as "success."
And we simply stopped calling people greedy.

There will be a decent number of people who see this as proof all the other AIs are a good source of knowledge because only Musk could possibly do something so obviously devious

Oh wow they found a MingKwai! So cool
A Facebook post unearthed a legend: the lost MingKwai typewriter, designed by Lin Yutang in 1947, resurfaced in a NY basement. Hailed as a marvel yet dismissed as a failure, its rediscovery revives debates over innovation, identity, and what it means to be Chinese, writes @yangyangcheng.bsky.social.

JD Vance's wife, Usha Vance, showing off Al Gore's book Earth in the Balance about climate change in the video announcing her trip to Greenland, is hilarious.

American citizens should not have to enter into a contract with a private company (that’s an X account signup!) to receive government communications
The NTSB says it will no longer email news outlets or reporters with notifications of upcoming press conferences, including those on plane crashes in Washington and Philadelphia.
Instead, all notifications will be made on X.
We're filing a FOIA to find out more about the change in policy.
