The "friendly AI" AGI obsessed cultists are malding, coping, and seething about this right now, because E-L-O-N signed some vague promise not to do this a few weeks ago. Also, it has LE EPIC X in it, again, because lead in his brain. :so-true:

    Can you really brute force an "everything app" with money like that? I think the other existing tech giants will have something to say about it.

      With good enough programmers you might be able to copy WeChat. But I'm guessing the Musk sycophants that would work for him aren't good enough.

      Although in general the concept of an "everything app" is misguided. An "ecosystem" would be the way to go. Capitalism makes it shit by using it as a monopolizing walled garden, but if done right the interoperability of something like the Apple ecosystem would be pretty nice.

      i don't think it'll work. if super apps were going to take off in the west they would have already.
