This whole AI side-plot is getting out of hand.
And Musk is the smelly guy. His AI is named Grok, as a smelly Troll.
Is Grok a reference to a troll?
I’ve only know of this.

Gemini is the twins, Janus is the Roman two-faced god.
Huh, TIL. I thought every Roman god had a Greek counterpart.
This reads like a late-night conspiracy theory mixed with a Kojima pitch 😂 oddly entertaining though.
OpenAI, which is completely closed.
I don’t know why I laughed at this one in particular, the way it was worded was just funny to me.
Didn’t google drop the no evil thing when they rebranded to Alphabet?
“Don’t be evil“ remains as the final phrase in the Code of Conduct. It was removed from the preface only.
No, it was several years before that.
The La-Li-Lu-Le-Lo strike again!
Who’s writing this??
Someone that doesn’t know German.
I don’t think Kojima knows anything other than Japanese and maybe some English, so that tracks.
“Deepseek” does sounds like what Psycho Mantis will do
Lol. If you didn’t know, Claude just got open sourced https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/pull/41611
If Claude Code was (as Anthropic claims) 100% written by Claude, then it’s not copyrightable. It’s not open sourced, it’s public domain.
“Open sourced”, LOL. By that logic Microsoft is open source https://www.techradar.com/news/the-microsoft-source-code-breach-may-be-much-bigger-than-we-thought
Fortunately Skynet has no negative connotations whatsoever. Sky: where peaceful gods live that brighten your day every morning and symbol of pure joy and love. Net: global togetherness brought by instant communications of love and unity.
Behold, the sky net (is this shit co-written by Oda?):
A net in the sky makes me think of us as prey being caught, like if Skynet was a spider or fisherman. Granted, I really had to look for that meaning.

I just realized this wasn’t an evil name across cultures as I have always thought.
Its Chinese translation 天网 (literally sky + net) is a word used for at least for 2,000 years and is still very actively used among the daily vocabulary. It’s a metaphor for law enforcement (especially the destined punishment for going against the “good natural order” i.e. the sky).
Traditionally, it’s neutral or commendatory, but nowadays due to the association with surveillance networks (both metaphorically and literally), it’s more derogatory.
That’s a good interpretation from the Chinese point of view. Ancient China is obsess with “heaven”. Their philosophy and mythology is chock full of reference to heaven, like the “mandate of heaven”.
Be more patriotic. It’s selfish to be afraid of all the winning that skynet brings America.
Genius Kojimbo
They villains are to corny for high school writing.
Nick Cage 've done it again!
I thought Britney Spears did it again? Oops.
