Ahh, but if it was just AIs copying AIs, it would all just degenerate into an ever tighter repeating loop before degenerating into incoherent noise. What we have here is clearly a system where true randomness causes the system to destabilize, in an attempt to force a stagnating system to re-orient itself and begin evolving again.
One day I shall prove that the universe is truly non-deterministic by referring back to this time period.

But everything that happens CAN be explained! The explanation just is that roughly 50% of humans are below the average intellect.
Who thought, an oligarch's fall would be about FAKING on a videogame. And not knowing what are VIDEO editors. And then calling Asmongold bad a video games, LOL!
It's like someone said (can't remember who), we are slowly entering on the age of authenticity.

And the Arab Spring because of a Tunisian street vendor who set himself on fire. The real history is "narratively" so badly written that an AI would write better narratives.

I think it's safe to say that Elon is too big to fail in terms of money however he has single handedly destroyed decades of propaganda for billionaires (meritocracy, genius etc). He could have pulled a Warren Buffet to keep his image as the modern day Tony Stark but his ego is insane. I can never understand how a man that has so much is so desperately lonely and starving for approval.
Let's not underestimate the power of memes. There is significant overlap between the people who got Trump elected twice by running free propaganda campaigns for him on the internet, and the spergs that worship Musk.
Pissing off those memesters is a good way of losing a significant portion of your support. Especially when Elon actually seems to be going out of his way to seek the approval of that crowd to stroke his ego.
I disagree I cannot think of a time where billionaires have been less popular, I know I am showing my age but Warren Buffet was downright a folk hero. I know he is still alive but there is no billionaire with that level of adoration and fame Warren had back in the day. Elon had the potential to have that level of fame and reputation before he screwed it up, he could have been this generation's famous / beloved rich man.

I don't think it's just the memes it's part of it but his personal life really screwed him on top of it he got involved with the whole Jonny Depp mess. Every aspect of his life came out to be a hot mess.
There's a bunch of small things surrounding the outbreak of WW1 that make you cringe in hindsight.
For example, Jean Jaurès, a french socialist, who wanted to mediate between parties to prevent war was assassinated on July 31.1914 by a man named "Raoul Villain".
You'd expect this naming convention in a Kojima game.
When you run from a bear, you don't have to be the faster than the bear, just faster than the slowest kid.
His ego oversells it and his insane insecurity kills it, that's the thing. Yes, we know who is Asmon, but Elmo's reach on Twitter is way beyond the gamer community and those people will read his twitts and think "uh, why the hell is Elon acting like a kid, what's happening?".
And it will only get worse with this kind of insecurity.
It's different. Trump's life was being an artistic realityshow conman that became senile and decided to go to politics. He had a thicker skin and now his mind is just to gone to actually even care.
Elmo is actually insecure as fuck, a nerd that go lucky with his businesses. A somewhat excentric "genius". The more he became a public figure, the more he began to show this insecurities. It will be his own ego that will sent him into a rabit hole.
Trump is very thin skinned, the dude cannot even let the slightest remark lie, the difference is that Trump doesn't play video games.
Swap out Video games with Golf and that stuff could come from Trump, easily.
It's just that you cannot fake playing golf like you can do with video games.
Difficult comparison because we're talking about a ~30 year age difference, 90's Trump didn't have social media around to put out every spur of the moment stupid idea into the world.
Being involved in a "scandal" and being thin skinned are also two different beasts.
Frankly, calling this situation here even a scandal is stretching the term, it's a petty fight, nothing more.
This must be what "genius" looks like.
