Based Elon take. Honestly probably some super stupid petty reason or half bake effective altruism bs, but companies should 100% consider products that hoover up ever piece data of their companies data to a preemptive strike to out compete them in the future.

If people don’t think googles and openais data collection (including reenforcement learning from product us) is at going to try to the center if market making for those companies they are paying attention.

fruitycoder ,

Thank you for the link! That is a very solid layout of his case against them I think

cmrn ,

Please do. Keep making headlines for self-destruction.

Syntha ,

Always amusing to watch him throw a temper tantrum

Lol. All your employees would fucking quit.

Do it. I dare you

He’s a hypocrite, and a piece of shit. Stop listening to him. Stop reading his tweets. Stop giving him any attention at all. He’s dirt under our boots and deserves nothing more.

I use a filter on Mastodon so I can limit how much Elon Musk headlines I see. People love to talk about him, I mean here we are…but at least with the filter I can tune out the noise most of the time. It’s blissful. A shame there’s no filters (that I know of) on Lemmy to hide asshats like this. I already know Musk is a POS, I don’t need to see a dozen articles every single day to remind me…

Good points! I’ll have to do the same on Mastodon.

QualifiedKitten ,

Some of the Lemmy apps have keyword filters. I’m using Thunder, but I know some others have it too. No clue if there’s anything for desktop though.

morriscox ,

Eternity, Boost, and Connect have a post filter option. Which client are you using? It’s Muted Words on Boost.

What does he think, Apple is going to release a keynote tomorrow with Tim Cook saying “ah, my bad, Elon doesn’t like it so we’re rolling it back”. And if he blocks Apple devices from Viewing Xitter, they’ll finally move on to other platforms which will potentially cut his user base in half.

skeezix ,

Can we make a global Lemmy compact to stop calling it Xitter and instead call it Shitter?

Ozonowsky ,
@Ozonowsky@lemmy.world avatar

Shitter is an actual app on F-droid. It’s a mastodon client.

Gestrid ,

I can’t ignore the irony.

MindTraveller ,

They’re the same word.

Gestrid ,

I still call it Twitter. I refuse to call it anything with the letter X in it. That includes “X (formerly known as Twitter)”.

asexualchangeling ,

At this point I call it XXX

Honytawk ,

The X is pronounced Shi in Mandarin

So it is basically the same

suction ,

I’m not gonna click the link (no hits for anything Elon), but the headline says he’s banning devices from his companies, so his employees will have to use anything but Apple…is what it sounds like.

scarabic ,

He’s trying to bring attention to his ongoing campaign to show that OpenAI are somehow evil crooks that cheated him and are going to destroy the world. He projects much.

ech ,

Gonna find out real quick that Apple is more important to people than Twitter.

laurelraven , (edited )

Ah hah! But is it more important than X?!

Yes. Nobody gives a shit about X.

rottingleaf ,

Not for me. Use neither, occasionally follow a Twitter link.

jaybone ,

Wait is he banning Apple for employees or from the entire platform for users?

SirQuackTheDuck ,

The former, unfortunately.

daddy32 ,

Unfortunately?

Buffalox ,

This doesn’t specify X, so it’s probably Tesla too, except I seriously doubt this threat is serious, because banning iPhone integration from Tesla, would probably hurt Tesla sales, and hurt Tesla and Musk 1000 times more than Apple.

asexualchangeling ,

I hate apple and yeah, Apple is far more important to me than some porn site (that’s what the X’s are for, right?)

TheHobbyist ,

This is so ridiculous. There is a lot of actually creepy spyware (see Microsoft’s recall) and this is what he gets upset about? Pathetic.

Rentlar ,

Musk the Butthurt Billionaire whines again. More news at 11.

TheBigBrother ,

Elon’s temper tantrums still news?

The man boy still doing his things…

oakey66 ,

Wait so will he ban Android because they have Gemini?

NOT_RICK ,
@NOT_RICK@lemmy.world avatar

He has a vendetta against OpenAI as he tried to take it over and they wanted no part of that if I recall correctly

skyspydude1 ,

He was technically a founding member, but left the company. Literally all of this is because he’s jealous he can’t pull a Tesla and claim all the credit for another tech company.

Lucidlethargy ,

Wait… that’s hilarious. He was part of openai? What kind of fucking idiot leaves that so early? I mean, maybe leaving this year for moral reasons… Sure. But he did this previously? What a fucking moron.

NotMyOldRedditName ,

There was some internal dispute and he also claimed it was a conflict of interest with Tesla developing AI stuff. But I can’t imagine how any conflict that may have existed with OpenAI doesn’t exist with xAI

vividspecter ,

Here’s the story for those interested: theverge.com/…/openai-elon-musk-failed-takeover-r…

undyingarchie ,

TLDR please. What is this cunt’s problem with OpenAI?

henfredemars ,

I think we just don’t want other tech companies getting the limelight.

SaltySalamander ,

This does a pretty good job of giving the necessary background to understand why Elon is being a pissy bitch about all things OpenAI.

barsquid ,

A thin-skinned and extremely fragile clown.

PunnyName ,

With too much fucking money.

elgordino ,

He called the software integration between the two companies “an unacceptable security violation,” and said Apple has “no clue what’s actually going on.”

I’d be very surprised if corporates wouldn’t just be able to disable it in MDM for their worker’s phones. Not sure it’s Apple who has ‘no clue’ here.

thebeardedpotato ,

Yep, this seems like the exact kind of thing companies would enforce with MDM.

I know one of my previous companies would enforce certain settings were changed if you wanted to install the MDM profile on a BYOD phone (like minimum 8 digit PIN), so requiring you to opt out of OpenAI Siri integration seems like a policy MDMs would offer.

(Though I would never install a company’s MDM profile on my personal phone lol - if they want me to be accessible and have work apps, they can provide a separate work phone)
