For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.

No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.

Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.

Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.

Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

A woman has told the BBC she felt "dehumanised and reduced into a sexual stereotype" after Elon Musk's AI Grok was used to digitally remove her clothing.

The BBC has seen several examples on the social media platform X of people asking the chatbot to undress women to make them appear in bikinis without their consent, as well as putting them in sexual situations.

XAI, the company behind Grok, did not respond to a request for comment, other than with an automatically-generated reply stating "legacy media lies".

Ms Smith shared a post on X about her image being altered, which was met with comments from those who had experienced the same - before others asked Grok to generate more images of her.

When you're a trillionaire, they just let you do it.

This is a company helmed by the guy who bought Twitter and had their press contact email just autoreply with a 💩 emoji.

Legacy money lies.

I think a guy who has a trillion dollars under his thumb and just built an auto sexual harassment tool can't claim to be a on a higher moral position than the legacy media.
