What a result from Musk. What a performance! What a choice of target to attack; what a deservedly humiliting climbdown. And in between, such disregard for ordinary decency; such contempt for simple probity; such an utter want of tactical nous. Savor it all. The reek of desperation; the accent notes of spite and schoolyard bullying; the ground bass of self-important stupidity. And spare a thought for the supporting cast of hopeless sycophants, and highly-paid lawyers. Marvelous.

I guess I won't be using AI to generate images for a while yet.
He talked about electric cars. I don't know anything about cars, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.
Then he talked about rockets. I don't know anything about rockets, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.
Now he talks about software. I happen to know a lot about software and Elon Musk is saying the stupidest shit anyone's ever said, so when people say he's a genius I figure I should stay the hell away from his cars and rockets.
