Elon's pet LLM chat bot. The one that he recently tweaked temporarily(?) to spread South African "white genocide" conspiracy theories on Twitter because... well because what else would you expect Elon to spend his time doing?

Ugh. Billionaires should get restrictions on the stuff they are allowed to publish

why should wealth explicitly affect the ruleset by which you play? freedom of the press is crucial to avoid facism, however politicians could get an exemption.
