I hate this guy

you may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like

Introducing the next product innovation from Elongated Muskrat: The Caliper Company

"Yeah, but I'm going to name it X-caliper. Because I think I am very clever."
- He's gonna bring back lobotomies with his company PickX

Come on he's doing the yakub thing totally unselfconsciously i can't work with this!

You will live to see man-made horrors beyond your comprehension

lmao there are crows smarter than him

Corvids are probably the coolest birds. They are smart as hell and they're goth as fuck as a bonus.
- I want to have a crow friend, but I don’t really get any opportunities to try.

Why do I read Musk in Measureheads voice? Like this is a bit right out of Disco Elysium.

It would rule if a drunk guy just walked up to Musk and knocked him out with a spinning kick to the head
- Not gonna happen; consequences of nerds telling everybody not to do adventurism.
YOUR SMALL HEAD BETRAYS YOUR IDIOCY
- Was gonna correct you then I remembered it's a removed word

The tricknology is strong in this one

RETVRN
- Elon Plan selectively breeding white people until they make Anti-Yakub and then in a cruel twist of fate Anti-Yakub invents black people. Truly, time is a flat circle.

He's right. This is why White Gladis is perhaps the smartest military leader of our times. Her brain is 4.5x more massive than a mere human's. Long live the joint dictatorship of the proletariat of oppressed marine ecosystems!

Larmarckism is true.

Case in point: society allows giant parasite douche bags to become billionaires and almost instantly Elon evolved to exist.

Guarantee this dude heard the word "assortative" in the last 24 hours.

You know how in the Big Lebowski the character "The Dude" says things that he just heard to other people to sound like he knows what's going on? And you're supposed to laugh at it because its funny when he tries to half ass explain something somebody else told him? That's Elon. Except with none of the chill. Or friends. Or day drunk grace. Or imagination. But he does share one aspect. As Walter says in the film, "Dude, you don't have a wife."

Let's say it's true humans will be "dumber than house cats compared to AI" does he really think selective breeding (which takes generations) will increase intelligence at a fast enough rate for humans to keep up given how quickly he thinks AI is advancing?

Even on his own terms this doesn't make any fucking sense.

He can't decide which side in the butlerian jihad he wants to join so he's playing both sides so he always comes out on top. Very normal brain genius this guy.

looks like someone started watching jimmy neutron

Literally big brain idea.

where :caliper: emoji

He's just saying this because he has a big head isn't it?

Nah he's saying it because he thinks bigger head = bigger brain = smarter
Move aside, Humanity, we must hand the world over to the blue whales.
- You know what?
  Better world
- Blue Whales make the theory, Orcas do the praxis.

The goal???

Their plan was a combination of deceit-based breeding program and human slavery, so yes

Elon is so ahead of his time, already being dumber than AI when AI isn't even intelligent yet.

I actually don’t hate Musk as much as some billionaires, but only because he’s such a dumbass it feels like he’s less dangerous than someone like Robert Mercer.

The quiet person is always the dangerous one. Add to that the old proverb that says "beware an old man in a younger man's trade." With Musk's public actions and drug abuse even his money might not let him live as long as he'd like. Meanwhile the Koch Bros chugged along for eons leaving misery in their wake.

Dude out here claiming people are becoming Jade Falcon aerospace pilots.

Where's the calipers emote?

In fairness. Humans did specifically massively increase brain and skull size to fit all our smarts in, no?

On a time scale of millions of years, yes. Not in the last few decades. This is an insane thing to say.
- Genetic determinists think that a couple generations of PMC people marrying other PMC people will produce a new subspecies or some shit. Like bruv even ignoring how that's not really happening the way you think it is it takes a lot more than that.
- Isn't there some evolutionary pressure, and it could be that it applies to primates in general and not just humans, for big-headedness? Like if big-headedness didn't help, then you could imagine two populations, A and B, where A has big heads and B doesn't. B loses fewer mothers during childbirth. Those mothers can then give birth more times, making B grow faster than A, so after enough time, we're all medium-head B-people. But somehow we ended up with me not being able to hold my head up in baby pictures. What gives?
