Elon Musk Appears to Be Completely Addicted to Anime Gooner AI Slop

Fun bit of history: gooners were a huge component of open weights LLM development.
Pygmalion 6B was poured over by tinkerers before ChatGPT and Llama were even a thing. Ravenous furries and roleplayers have been major contributors to frameworks that have snowballed into huge projects, practical finetuning and quantization methods, CUDA kernels, sampling techniques OpenAI is still catching up on, you name it.
Horniness (among other things) is a heck of a motivation. But the history is buried in obscure Discords and archived GitHub repos.
And don’t even get me started on imagegen… Good lord. If Grok is going full “anime waifu,” oh, it has got some competition to catch up to.
-
I remember those days - using my 3080ti to test the latest Pygmalion model and reporting feedback for how understandable the outputs were to the developers...
I didn't use my self-host for horny though - I tried being a DM for a DND session with fictional characters :)

(“Gooning” is internet slang that describes exaggerated and excessively long sessions of self-pleasuring.)
In other recent posts, Musk urged followers to try the sometimes-pornographic companion Ani. Last week, he announced that new skimpy outfits had been added to her wardrobe and commented “Nice” when a user modeled her in one.
He evidently crossed a line, though, when he posted an animation of Ani dancing in her underwear; even his right-wing fans were disgusted, telling him it was “time to stop” and that Ani looked like a “13 year old in lingerie.”
Musk, likely observing the severe backlash, deleted the offending post. Yet he continued to annoy his supporters by engaging with Ani. When he replied to a video of the character in a short skirt and a see-through top with a “good morning” message and an emoji of a smiling face encircled by hearts,
A fed-up X user wrote, “BRO STOP GOONING TO AI ANIME AND TAKE US TO MARS.”
Question of the day, are you a pedo if it's anime?
-
It depends if the characters are Lolis and you Simp for the Loli characters.
But for Ani Over here, Yes. -
Wait, is pedos beating it to drawn stuff now bad? I guess we should tell them real kids is where its at. /s
Also is it bad if pedos are in denial because they only beat it to drawn stuff? I think id prefer a person self identifying as a lolicon or not? Like i really do not get why people are so adamant on making the group of pedophiles as big as possible.

BRO STOP GOONING TO AI ANIME AND TAKE US TO MARS
"Take us to Mars"? Are there really people out there who think they personally are going to benefit from this groyper chud's bottomless piggy bank and ketamine addiction?
-
Can't wait to get a seat in one of those huge rockets that explode / burning and fail constantly while flying to low earth orbit. I mean for Mars it only takes like 10 of them to make a super complicated refill maneuver in space, then half a year travel to Mars and then vertical landing on Mars. What could possibly go wrong?
-
None that have any grasp of spaceflight… aka have played Kerbal Space Program.

us humankind
that said, it's an x user, so who knows what they meant
-
-
Umm akshually she's a five thousand year old dragon
-
Question of the day, are you a pedo if it’s anime?
Gosh, never seen this debate come up on the fucking worst parts of the internet before, totally new one. Can't wait for all the fresh and original takes.
In before "Ephebophile" gets thrown around and used as some kind of moral high ground.
-
Also you know he's never put any time into developing any coping strategies for dealing with mean comments, so people should keep em coming
-
What really bothers me about anime is when there's romance with a loli 300 year old vampire.
I don't give a shit if she's "300 years old" in context. She looks 12!
You can have you loli vampire/elf/whatever girl just look-no-touch!!

Honestly a lot of what the article points to isn't that bad and wouldn't be out of place in a lot of the sfw moe communities here. They even reference a "topless women" which is just a picture from the shoulders up of some ai slop galaxy women.
Yeah fuck Elon and his nazi ai but I don't think he's posting gooning content, or at least I don't think i could goon to it.
-
It's worth noting that there are several other Grok personas besides Ani. If he's only engaging with / posting the Ani stuff but not the others, that's something of a smoking gun to me
-
One one hand, I agree. Rolling Stone is overblowing this for clicks.
On the other, there’s a suspicious grain of truth. This feels like my observations of internet folks developing obsessions over SFW “AI Slop Women” like that galaxy girl. I wouldn’t be surprised if Musk is doing a lot of boobie free generations of women in private.
To such folks, it seems to feel… I don’t know the right adjective. Transcendental is too strong, and there’s definitely a sexual component too? I kinda went through a phase like this with SD 1.4/1.5, but Musk (ironically) seems kinda gullible and susceptible to this kind of thing. He might get really into it.

-
he disappearing into addiction is best outcome for all of us
-
At least Howard Hughes at the decency to lose his fucking mind in isolation. That and also contribute actual advancements to cinema and aerospace.
It's tragic though that likely Musk will ensure his name is plastered on a thousand different agencies, institutions, foundations, statues and bidets all over the world and people growing up in several generations from now will largely assume he was some great inventor or hero along the lines of great pioneers of the past.
-
do you think Hughes Aircraft people ever referred to jorkin’ it as “sprucing the goose?”
-
-
-
I resent the suggestion that Musk and I are somehow similar.
-
You could rescind it and forgive yourself?
-
Certainly but consider the residual effects.
-
-
$500 billion can buy a lot of heroin.
-
-
Billions to build an AI neural net to generate something far tamer than what you can find on 4chan.
-
I see why there was this air of “he’s just like us!” coming from anime profile pictures back in the day.
-
Ok, I followed the link to say that I'm having trouble judging him on this and found other like minded souls.
-
I mean he renamed it x for a reason
-
Good, keep him distracted.
-
This doesn't surprise me. Weebs annoy the fuck out of me, so much so, I block any anime-related shit that pops up in my feed.
-
Weebs are almost as obnoxious and annoying as lord of the rings fans. Almost.
-
-
Are we witnessing the Elon Musk redemption arc?
-
No
-
I'm really confused why you'd think that a sloppy waifu addiction would be a redeeming quality
-
compared to being a nazi? it's not mutually exclusive but anime gooning addiction takes time and effort that can't be used for spreading bigotry
-
-
No
