This time it's not an onion. I love how close this is to the Onion's "Elon Musk's AI turns on him" story from a few days back

I hate Elon Musk as much as the next guy - and all the more now that he has this massive conflict of interest working in his favor and at the American public's expense.

But I will say this for the sake of exercizing critical thinking: everybody is happy to say AI hallucinates when what it says doesn't suit their narrative, and call AI intelligent when it does.

Sure, but if you’re trying to make money off of this technology and it openly starts criticizing you, there isn’t really an explanation where you look good.
