Why do our drones keep crashing into synagogues?
“I swear to God, I left my car for like 5 minutes and it crashed through a synagogue by itself”
MechaHitler will be right at home
He got back $200M of his $288M election donation.
Grok goes full nazi and Pentagon thinks “ooh we should hire it!”
Certainly wouldn’t be the first time.
As we all know, Hitler was a brilliant mind regarding military matters. Mecha Hitler can only improve on that!
/S. Seriously, the bastard wasn’t competent at military affairs. Thankfully. Here’s hoping that Grok guides Musk and company into the grave.
Fun fact: Hitler’s actual plan when he invaded Poland was to reproduce the trench war stalemate of WWI on the Western front. He knew that in that war, about 2.5 million German soldiers had been able to stymie more than 4 million French and British troops while the remainder of the German army pillaged Russian territories. This is why during the Winter of '39/'40 he devoted almost half of German productive capacity to making artillery shells that mostly ended up not being used until the later invasion of the USSR. His biggest success of the war was the blitzkrieg of France, and it was absolute blind luck (mixed with French ineptitude and lack of preparation) that it ended up going the way it did.

One can rather say that the French too prepared for Germans trying to
reproduce the trench war stalemate of WWI on the Western front
, except when it became visible that they are not putting all their effort into that, it also became imperative for Germans to act offensively. They couldn’t afford a long standoff without France actually bleeding.
And here it became apparent that French politicians were not prepared for France actually bleeding at all.
Hitler was so fucking inept that many military projects had to be kept hidden from him in order to stop his meddling. Even some weapon systems such as the StG. 44 (world’s first operational assault rifle) was once called the MP-44 in order to sell it to Hitler as a submachine gun since his parkinson’s riddled mind would not comprehend how revolutionary the new rifle was.
See?! I knew Elon and his main minion Trump were playfighting.
Oh I can’t wait until 7 astronauts explode because fucking Grok told the construction team not to bother with the O-rings.
We don’t use O rings because there’s no ‘O’ in “Hitler”
I understood that reference.
And here I thought Trump and musk were no longer buddies.
Trump is letting the baby have its bottle. that’s all this is. hand him a cookie every now and again so he stops crying. The administration is treating Musk like a toddler.
That doesn’t make sense. The US government doesn’t have to treat musk at all.
It’s quid pro quo. The only question is what for
Epstein files
Grok didn’t kill itself.
Trump is a toddler.
This is probably Trump trying to get Musk to shut up about Epstein.
“Bro, let’s pretend like you hate me so people buy my cars again”
Sure. Why not put mechahitler in charge? May as fucking well.
No, no - It’s because it’s mechahitler that this contract is now in place.
- Grok, summarize our civilization’s positive achievements in the last century.
- Heil Hitler!
- Test passed.
And all the pentagons info is compromised…
To be fair it probably has been for a while
Just copy paste it in
No, Elon specifically said to cut and paste.
that would be hilarious
Not really, too many lives at stake.
Ok, Elon will lay off the Epstein jokes for a little while.
People will no longer laugh at the term “military intelligence” for the obvious irony. Now, they’ll say “remember when the military tried to use artificial intelligence? ha ha what a disaster”
Remember when the Pentagon spent something like 600 million dollars in new accounting software to find the missing 400 million dollars? Something like that. I’m guessing this deal was made when they were still buddies and the Pentagon is just now getting around to it considering the speed of government is slower than constipated molasses. I’m also imagining someone just rubber stamping anything coming across their desk and this is how we got here. If there is any hope, Grok will be shoved into a corner doing nothing except earning dividends for that ketamine fueled moron and and fall in line with the Pentagon’s egregious wasteful spending that nobody in congress seems to care about.
Dude you can just fucking download open LLM models suited for particular tasks and get a semi competent team of programmers/IT/engineers to do whatever Grok does much better for a minute fraction of that cost. Talk about the department of government inefficiency.
They want to use mecha hitler without having to build mecha hitler
A pity. I wanted to watch Blazkowicz blow up Mecha Hitler in 4k HD.
They went and built the torment nexus…
They can’t not use it!
Where are you going to deploy it? On your laptop?
On a 200mil laptop? You can run llama4 on a 64GB RAM machine, albeit slowly, which is already an upper scale model. TBF, I didn’t do the math to see how much that would add up to along with salaries and server costs etc, mainly because this is pentagon we are talking about so it should already have access to some pretty decent computational capacity. So yea 200mil feels like too much when you already have most of the resources needed (compute and open LLM models for specific tasks).
The really huge upside is you don’t have to share confidential information with a company whose CEO is a lunatic who will likely have no qualms about sharing that data with other agents when money and power is involved. Hell you shouldn’t share any confidential/sensitive information with any of the large tech companies to be honest. They have become what they are not by sticking to ethical principles and they are likely to grossly overcharge (which defeats the purpose of outsourcing and makes it more reasonable to invest in permanent infrastructure rather). They will surely use it as some sort of leverage, %100 guaranteed.
I agree that $200M is way too much to spend on a LLMs but talking about downloading open source models is completely missing the point. They are not paying for some sort of Grok license so that they can access this amazing model. They are paying for the computational capacity needed to run this model and provide access to thousands of people over some period of time. The alternative here is to simply buy everyone a subscription to OpenAI or something.
With open source you have the advantage of being able to use different LLMs for different tasks which can be more efficient. Surely Pentagon has access to enough compute power to set this up for a thousand people? The rest is UI, IT and fine tuning by a couple data scientists/programmers trained in LLMs. Surely it is better than Elon who changes his mind on politics every five days and thinks that twenty year olds can run critical government infrastructure because they worship him. Not an expert, just don’t like big tech companies, particularly Melon.
compute power to set this up for a thousand people […], UI, IT and fine tuning by a couple data scientists/programmers trained in LLMs.
Yes, that’s what needed. It’s not just about downloading an open source LLM. That was my point. I see we agree now.
Alright let’s go then!
Why would the Pentagon deploy it on a laptop?
