      This seems far more likely than an impending Skynet doomsday. We didn’t even get those perfect self-driving cars he kept promising, how is AI going to really take over/destroy everything?

      The way people keep trying to find secret schemes and reasons for his unhinged behavior feels like a trace of belief that the wealthy really are superior, and they can’t just act stupid and crazy.

        Not to mention, of course he’d be hyping ai now that his new toy has lost its luster. He’s already thinking about x’s migration to an AI company as his next grift.
