 Interesting reveal in the latest elon + fridman interview. Elons plan is to use tesla robots to collect training data like they do with their cars. He says that will likely be one of the most valuable aspects of them :/ 
 Xitter doing AI data harvesting as well. 
 With everyday I trust less that Elon is friend. 
 cool cool 
 Elon is not your friend.

 Tesla robots as in the ones assembling cars in the assembly line? What sort of training data would you even get from them. Their role is very simple and repetitive. 
 So are you gonna listen to all 4749398539309594 hours of the interviews 
 yes. i think data producing companies will be steadier in the game, playing the longer game, also having cash flow to burn for AI projects. openAI and anthropic might have difficulty because of this. 

but if someone can prove that they are closer to super intelligence they may get more funding.. i think governments are wanting a piece too. they can print money indefinitely and probably some investors don't care about returns at this point, if offered super intelligence they will be glad to be part of the group. 

conscious humans should get together and build alternatives, i.e. decentralized truth by fine tuning of models. individuals or groups can form their models by selecting whatever looks true to them and base their ideas on those models. groups can then say this is the model we prefer and people can follow their models. otherwise the narrative is going to be controlled by big corp AI. 

with decentralized truth it is going to be easier to dodge ministry of truth. 
 I saw a vid yesterday from a guy who says he is working on Tesla ‘robot cars’ .. from what I could gather they are cyber trucks controlled by robots or some such thing 
 the question is why Friedman never asks anything about the Senate hearings with Grusch and others - or Elon won't say anything about them 
 Not surprising at all
