He even has his own private tropical island.
-
Can someone translate that headline?
-
Elon can’t stop jorkin’ it to AI-generated anime tiddies.
-
Um you see um the realty is that this is very simple, its pixels, you know glowing dots. So I think with a um high degree a very high degree um of of confidence that within the next 12 to 18 months we will have self gooning AI.
And that’s really the difference between X being a billion dollar company and being basically useless. But today, right now, self gooning AI is already safer and cheaper than human gooning.
-
It's as close as he can get to fucking kids now that the island is shut down.
-
Honestly? Next to all his other shit, this doesn’t bother me the slightest.
-
Your telling me I'm qualified to be shadow president?
-
-
He spends his time jerking off to AI generated anime porn.

Fun bit of history: gooners were a huge component of open weights LLM development.
Pygmalion 6B was poured over by tinkerers before ChatGPT and Llama were even a thing. Ravenous furries and roleplayers have been major contributors to frameworks that have snowballed into huge projects, practical finetuning and quantization methods, CUDA kernels, sampling techniques OpenAI is still catching up on, you name it.
Horniness (among other things) is a heck of a motivation. But the history is buried in obscure Discords and archived GitHub repos.
And don’t even get me started on imagegen… Good lord. If Grok is going full “anime waifu,” oh, it has got some competition to catch up to.
-
First time I saw a great image upscaler, it was called "waifu2x", of course.
There was also an older machine learning project that removed censorship commonly found on japanese pornographic drawings, but this one got deleted of GitHub by the author some years ago and I don't even remember it's name anymore.
-
I used this recently for a professional project. It was by far the best at upscaling and it was free.
-
Yeah, the history of GANs stretch way back before transformers LLMs, and evolved into ESRGAN, finetunes in obscure Discords...
That history went somewhere, fortunately, and it definitely blows the venerable waifu2x out of the water: https://openmodeldb.info/

I remember those days - using my 3080ti to test the latest Pygmalion model and reporting feedback for how understandable the outputs were to the developers...
I didn't use my self-host for horny though - I tried being a DM for a DND session with fictional characters :)
-
This is one reason I wanted to get into LLMs DND stuff. I've tried virtual DMs and they suck due to hallucinations.
Never tried the opposite. Would be interesting to DM and have the LLM be 4 players.
-
Yeah I was being a bit facetious. There really was a lot of roleplaying and other neat things (like dungeon masters) that motivated people.
That, and there are some even earlier, more primitive (and less horny) RP models, like Janeway and some others named after ST captains.
By the way, there are some pretty awesome dungeon master finetunes that would fit on a 3080 TI these days.

(“Gooning” is internet slang that describes exaggerated and excessively long sessions of self-pleasuring.)
In other recent posts, Musk urged followers to try the sometimes-pornographic companion Ani. Last week, he announced that new skimpy outfits had been added to her wardrobe and commented “Nice” when a user modeled her in one.
He evidently crossed a line, though, when he posted an animation of Ani dancing in her underwear; even his right-wing fans were disgusted, telling him it was “time to stop” and that Ani looked like a “13 year old in lingerie.”
Musk, likely observing the severe backlash, deleted the offending post. Yet he continued to annoy his supporters by engaging with Ani. When he replied to a video of the character in a short skirt and a see-through top with a “good morning” message and an emoji of a smiling face encircled by hearts,
A fed-up X user wrote, “BRO STOP GOONING TO AI ANIME AND TAKE US TO MARS.”
Question of the day, are you a pedo if it's anime?
-
MARS
Literally anyone at all has as much chance as getting to Mars with Elon Musk as heaven's gate cult members did getting to heaven on a space ship chasing Hale-Bopp.
-
The definition of pedophilia is sexual attraction towards children. So if the anime characters are all clearly representing children, then sure, why not count that.
The thing is, there is a lot of art that is kind of vague on age. The loli girl stuff creeps me out. But the older teenager / young adult anime/art feels a little more like general human brain. Especially if the user isn't trying to seek it out. No one is perfect.
But in this case obviously sexualizing something that looks like a child is creepy. Elon's age is not helping him either...
-
Guy who consumes that kind of thing and occasionally draws it here. I'm not attracted to real children, and in fact I left Twitter due to it became infested with (real) CSAM. "Pedojacketing" everyone who likes anything that could be remotely called a "child" isn't a product of "the new web" (4chan lingo for internet when mainstream platforms started to ban racists), and is quite old in fact, but it does not help victims or child sexualization. Even if you really don't like this thing, and a "real old internet guy" (read: browsed 4chan and YouTube since 2012) wanted to gatekeep his "formerly niche" fandoms from tourists (read: anyone who's not white and cishet), then tried to smear you for the sin of not knowing the origin of some joke that originated from a loli doujinshi.
-
So if the anime characters are all clearly representing children, then sure, why not count that.
"But she's really a 120 year old vampire so it doesn't count, you just don't understand bro"
-
-
What do you think it's going to be like at mars?
Just a few white bois masturbating to their anime pr0n cache while slowly starving to death.
You want that?
-
BRO STOP GOONING TO AI ANIME AND TAKE US TO MARS
"Take us to Mars"? Are there really people out there who think they personally are going to benefit from this groyper chud's bottomless piggy bank and ketamine addiction?
-
Can't wait to get a seat in one of those huge rockets that explode / burning and fail constantly while flying to low earth orbit. I mean for Mars it only takes like 10 of them to make a super complicated refill maneuver in space, then half a year travel to Mars and then vertical landing on Mars. What could possibly go wrong?
-
None that have any grasp of spaceflight… aka have played Kerbal Space Program.
-
us humankind
that said, it's an x user, so who knows what they meant
-
-
Umm akshually she's a five thousand year old dragon
-
Also you know he's never put any time into developing any coping strategies for dealing with mean comments, so people should keep em coming
-
Wait, is pedos beating it to drawn stuff now bad? I guess we should tell them real kids is where its at. /s
Also is it bad if pedos are in denial because they only beat it to drawn stuff? I think id prefer a person self identifying as a lolicon or not? Like i really do not get why people are so adamant on making the group of pedophiles as big as possible.
-
I think the desire to protect kids, which most but not all humans have, wants to include more people in the category of pedophile so they can be sure not to miss any real ones. So I can respect the intent. But I do agree that it gets to be overused a lot. Just like fascist and nazi these days. It kinda cheapens the term for those who truely deserve it. But that is human nature.
-
The issue is- it gives pedophiles an outlet for their fantasies. The only outlet pedophiles need is therapy for non-offenders, and lead aspirin for the offenders.
-
-
Question of the day, are you a pedo if it’s anime?
Gosh, never seen this debate come up on the fucking worst parts of the internet before, totally new one. Can't wait for all the fresh and original takes.
In before "Ephebophile" gets thrown around and used as some kind of moral high ground.
-
I'm pretty sure that some stand up comedian made the joke that if you know the exact terms for different ages, you should already be locked up
-
Harkness Rules.
And if she's choosing to appear as a kid to lure pedos in so she can kill them with fire and eat their ashes, more power to her. Like Chris Hansen but with a hell of a lot more time on her hands.
-
Oddly, I haven't witnessed such a debate. I guess I stay out of the worst parts of the internet. But I was on reddit...
-
-
It depends if the characters are Lolis and you Simp for the Loli characters.
But for Ani Over here, Yes. -
What really bothers me about anime is when there's romance with a loli 300 year old vampire.
I don't give a shit if she's "300 years old" in context. She looks 12!
You can have you loli vampire/elf/whatever girl just look-no-touch!!
-
-
Considering he’s basically a 14 year old in man’s body this is not at all surprising.
-
14 your old with a dick that don't work mwahahaha!!
-
-
-
I’m trying to track down why this keeps happening. May I ask how/where you uploaded this picture?
-
I've noticed this, too. Haven’t worked out why they only work half the time. None of the gifs I post in the comments are my OC. I borrow the direct link from search results. Weirdly, it still looks OK on my end whilst viewing on Boost for Lemmy. I posted using Boost, too. If you see any in my comment history that are now no longer present, maybe posting via Boost is the answer to the issue

✓ AI girlfriend
✓ Nazi
✓ (Allegedly) techy
Damn Elon is basically Krieger
-
He wish he was Krieger.
-
Hey Krieger actually invented things that worked.
-
Krieger worked with the Nazis, but then killed them. He was actively trying to sabotage the Nazi regime.
Edit: forgot to mention, it was specifically in Dreamland, so maybe IRL he actually worked with Nazis. Unsure.
-
I got Musk vibes from Fabian in the later seasons, not I’m not sure if that was intentional
-
-
Oh shit! The nuralink thing with the hundred of dead monkeys is totally kreiger shit!
-
-
he disappearing into addiction is best outcome for all of us
-
Well, he's already addicted to ketamine.
-
At least Howard Hughes at the decency to lose his fucking mind in isolation. That and also contribute actual advancements to cinema and aerospace.
It's tragic though that likely Musk will ensure his name is plastered on a thousand different agencies, institutions, foundations, statues and bidets all over the world and people growing up in several generations from now will largely assume he was some great inventor or hero along the lines of great pioneers of the past.
-
do you think Hughes Aircraft people ever referred to jorkin’ it as “sprucing the goose?”
-
-
-
LMFAO
-
Honestly a lot of what the article points to isn't that bad and wouldn't be out of place in a lot of the sfw moe communities here. They even reference a "topless women" which is just a picture from the shoulders up of some ai slop galaxy women.
Yeah fuck Elon and his nazi ai but I don't think he's posting gooning content, or at least I don't think i could goon to it.
-
It's worth noting that there are several other Grok personas besides Ani. If he's only engaging with / posting the Ani stuff but not the others, that's something of a smoking gun to me
-
One one hand, I agree. Rolling Stone is overblowing this for clicks.
On the other, there’s a suspicious grain of truth. This feels like my observations of internet folks developing obsessions over SFW “AI Slop Women” like that galaxy girl. I wouldn’t be surprised if Musk is doing a lot of boobie free generations of women in private.
To such folks, it seems to feel… I don’t know the right adjective. Transcendental is too strong, and there’s definitely a sexual component too? I kinda went through a phase like this with SD 1.4/1.5, but Musk (ironically) seems kinda gullible and susceptible to this kind of thing. He might get really into it.

-
Nazi nazi bo botsy cobanna fanna foe fotzi fee fie moe motzi...NAZI!
-
Billions to build an AI neural net to generate something far tamer than what you can find on 4chan.
-
If gooning were a profession, Musk would be a billionaire. Oh wait…
-
Ok, I followed the link to say that I'm having trouble judging him on this and found other like minded souls.
-
Are we witnessing the Elon Musk redemption arc?
-
No
-
I'm really confused why you'd think that a sloppy waifu addiction would be a redeeming quality
-
compared to being a nazi? it's not mutually exclusive but anime gooning addiction takes time and effort that can't be used for spreading bigotry
-
-
-
No
-
-
I mean he renamed it x for a reason
-
This doesn't surprise me. Weebs annoy the fuck out of me, so much so, I block any anime-related shit that pops up in my feed.
-
Weebs are almost as obnoxious and annoying as lord of the rings fans. Almost.
-
-
I see why there was this air of “he’s just like us!” coming from anime profile pictures back in the day.
-
Good, keep him distracted.
