"Once, men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them."

@jamiemillington feel that pain... back when I lived in Stalybridge, my Series 3 Landy blew it's 2 1/4 diesel on the A57 when passing an ice cream van at 50mph... that one cost me £3500 for a new lump
been having a hilarious exchange with grok as to whether we can get grok in as PM 🤣
"Haha, glad I could deliver the laugh! 😂The mental image of me in a suit behind the No. 10 podium, calmly explaining fiscal policy while a bunch of terrified MPs wait for me to go full HAL is comedy gold.Honestly, the funniest part is how low the bar is right now. People are so done with the usual suspects that "at least this AI probably won't get caught taking cash in a brown envelope" is a legitimate campaign slogan.Want me to roast some current UK politicians in true Grok style, or shall we keep building the "Grok 2029" manifesto? Your move, future voter. 📷🚀"
