They finally realized, that the invested money is lost and theres no reason to lose more. Good on them. A bit late, but better late than never.
NGL that gif is fucking amazing, violin or not. Where do you find such wondrous things?
The GIF was created by James Tyrwhitt-Drake back in 2012, when he captured the images at the University of Victoria’s Advanced Microscopy Facility and posted the final product to his Tumblog, Infinity Imagined.

Oh ok. You just randomly found that specific one? As a petapixel browser, would you happen to know where to find more of the same? I think I need a serious electron microscope zoom in fix after this.
They’re not gifs, but here’s a bunch of interesting SEM images from one of the manufacturers of these microscopes.
NOT GOOD ENOUGH! I command you to search for gifs!
Yes Mr. Musk.

NOT GOOD ENOUGH! But I will let it slide because you technically obliged.
Searched only for “electron microscope zoom”, it was like the 10th result. It seems like there isn’t a lot of gif like this, as you have to create a lot of images one by one.
That’s what scripts are for.
I guess the problem is not the repetitive task, but electron microscopes are expensive to use, and while you create your gifs others can’t use it for actual research. They need vacuum and high voltage to work, which cost money.
I found that to create nice and and clean noise free image you need minutes to hours of exposure time, so it’s possible that gif took hours to take. Someone had to pay for the electricity bill during that, I guess you don’t want to pay for that frequently.
Please correct me if you are someone with actual experience with electron microscopes. It’s hard to find info on this topic.
I command you to write the script for me!
You need a Claude for that.
I’m a mere Chad.
But how did he make the tiny violin move ?
Mostly not because of the violin. Just to be clear.
Yes please. Heads better roll or the people better rise up or both. This is not the future we want.
It’s almost like he and his buddy don know nothing about running a business and fostering human relationships. A couple of small time Napoleons with large time capital can make quite a mess if given half a chance. And currently they are being given a whole chance.
This is like their seventh chance
Most recently, xAI has come under fire after Grok began generating nonconsensual sexual images of real people in response to X user prompts.
That’s an understatement…
He made a CP machine.
Please don’t use the phrase “CP” but instead the correct term ‘CSAM’.
‘Porn’ suggests consent
While CSAM might be the word people are using now, how did you determine “porn” means the creation of it involved consent and not that the contents contain sexually explicit material?
The operative word is “suggests”.
Just like I would “suggest” that instead of being pedantic about child abuse, you go have a wash, go outside and get some sunlight on your skin.
That was mean.
Being pedantic about CSAM was entirely unnecessary.
Direct your energy to more productive outlets
Yeah you wouldn’t rename bestiality pornography even though the animals in that can’t consent.
Reddit moment
So there’s a second person who doesn’t want to attach their name to a machine that generates child porn? Good on the guy who left.
I guarantee you, he only did it because he thought it was a bad business deal.
All of these “people” would literally make machines to rape children if they believed it would make them more money.
We need to stop giving them power.
Musk has a tendency to be all up in in his people’s faces telling them what to do. I wouldn’t be surprised if they all went and formed their own company.
and pro-nazi content too.
Please just wake me up when this shit show stops.
Rats? Ship? Sinking?
a ship made out of AI chips.
It’s time to recalibrate my gradient on the big picture.
I threw up in my mouth a bit.
2026 is gonna be insane and likely the busiest (and most consequential) year for the future of our species
That’s just fuckin sinister.
“It’s time to recalibrate my gradient on the big picture.”
You absolute fucking loser. The ONLY reason you’re not a virgin is because you have money, and it still doesn’t make a dent in your complete loserhood!
Incellionaire
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
May I borrow that?
You can absolutely take it, someone used it on urban dictionary in 2023 I think
I’ll thank you for it though
Fucking incomprehensible. The fuck is this dude even saying? Hate it when my gradient gets recalibrated.
2026 is gonna be insane and likely the busiest (and most consequential) year for the future of our species,
Yeah, he’s right, just not in the way he thinks he is
It says that xAI lost their second cofounder, but then it turns out that he just left the company.
Ok, this was funny 😂
The article mentions Grok being antisemitic and making non-consensual sexual images of people… But zero mention of the CSAM issue? Really?
It’s okay this just means he got replaced with AI right?!?!
Massie 4 President
Fuck no. He’s still a Republican.
