he has a wierd obsession with LOTR, i dont think hes an actual fan of the franchise though, its more like a para-fan. his other company is anduril.

His immense disregard for the message of LotR makes sense because he also disregards the message of Jeebus, who he also claims to be a super fan of.

I think he might just be illiterate.

Fuck him for taking anything from Tolkien’s legacy for his evil fucking purposes.

Also Paypal, and in a lot of ways, Facebook.

Also he bought and paid for J.D vance, and runs all sorts of alt right think tanks and influencers.

It's not genocide if nobody is accountable. It's just "science"! That's an actual application of "AI". Extremely valuable to empire.

Sure! Why have AI assisted ambulances or firetrucks when you can slap an AI onto ICBM carriers!

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Because ppl start to ask questions when the ambulance or firetruck gets to the wrong house, but there will be no backlash when the ICBM hits the wrong house on another continent.

I’m sure this will work exactly as planned, and have no negative consequences whatsoever.
