Musk says he’s going to launch an “AI game studio” at his xAI startup.
You must log in or register to comment.
Richest fucker in the world starts indie game studio was not on my bingo card.
Don’t worry, he just made a type in “crypto grift studio”.
God I’m so sick of hearing about this douchebag.
I’m pretty sure he thinks that if no one is paying attention to him he ceases to exist.
If he wasn’t such a social hazard his pitiful, immature, and downright pathetic personality would make for great satire content.
Now that he is first lady, you won’t get away from him.
I used to love dreaming about near future space travel.
Can we just stop trying squeeze AI into every god damn thing yet?
It has its uses, but its a tool, not a replacement for actual hardwork and talent - and if you try to make it be, you’ll just get hot garbage out.
The people pushing AI don’t care if AI works or not. They will keep making money while the consumers and workers suffer.

Producing hot garbage is kind of Elon’s thing.
I want them to do this, produce some absolute slop that nobody plays or wants, lose a colossal sum of money, and forever be an example of what not to do.
Elon kind of already did that with X and unfortunately it hasn’t taught him anything.
He stands to gain more through his political influence than he has lost with Twitter, and the latter arguably helped him get the former. By itself, his acquisition of Twitter is and will remain a loss; in the grand scheme of things, though, it was a sort of investment that is likely to pay off handsomely. If he’s learnt anything, it’s that the United States have devolved into a plutocracy that capital can steer off the common interest of their citizens and the common good.
Thing is, he has a big enough bankroll to just keep throwing shit at the wall until something sticks. 100Mil for a triple-A game is effectively pocket change when you’re worth a couple hundred billion. He’ll keep trying until he gets bored or stumbles onto the next Fortnite out of sheer luck.
Like GTA, but only teslas.
not a replacement for actual hardwork and talent
But… it is*?
*: From the perspective of upper management and higher.
Hard work and talent might organize and start s union, so they’ll go with the
hot garbageAI.
I can’t wait for the people that are still on the gamer gate wagon to get ahold of one of these games, find out it’s ass, and then claim the only people that don’t like it are the woke mob that kills art.
I’m sure he’ll just sue people for not buying it like he’s trying to do with his other products.
My god he’s insufferable
On the bright side there’s about a 100% guarantee that any game he shits out is gonna be terrible. You can rig, bribe, and exploit your way through literally anything except creating good art. The industry’s seen plenty of attempts already
And if it’s good then ill just pirate it :3
Also it will be some kind of grift. I guess something something nft crypto, or whatever.
And will end up being banned from steam as a result.
I’m looking forward to it tbh.
thats fine, let him make his own storefront too. Or is that what X: The Everything App is supposed to be used for?
Omfg that would be great. Blow a couple billion creating a storefront and games, just to fail miserably.
We might get a new entry for the “Worst of all Time” award
I’d rather play ET.
Just because it’s bad don’t mean that it won’t make money hand over fist. Look at everything Disney produces.
Making money from a slightly smaller pile of money is easy.
Making ever more money from increasingly smaller piles of money is hard, and that’s what they all career headlong towards for no discernable reason whatsoever.
I’m sure the studio will launch by next year, like every Musk product.
Full Self Publishing is only two years away, just like it has been for eight years.
“Two weeks…” <ad infinitum>
computer-controlled enemy mobs and bosses running in circles, into terrain and environment objects, and off cliffs; and unable to tell player from decorative fauna.
Creating a game studio, because you are a huge corporation with unlimited money doesn’t guarantee success. Just look at Amazon game studios for example.
I bet he’s banking on marketing the games as “anti-woke” and getting the MAGA crowd to buy them to own the libs.
Its like every week a new episode of black mirror script is coming to life.
I know games as propaganda exist in some shape and form already, but imagine what could a selfish man-child with all the money in the world do to the game industry to bring his “vision” to life.
Punching nazis is a game, more or less, but that’s about as political as a game should get imo.
Art is inherently political.
For example, do you think Gordon Freeman would be a Trump voter?
Or the entire Bioshock franchise? That entire story is a big political message.
I bet it will work, too. 😬
Google has failed at games over, and over, and over.
Or at EA, or Ubisoft
EA actually got rich making decent games before their (very early!) foray into enshittification. Can you imagine they went 10 years without yearly EA Sports crap?
Similarly, Ubisoft (then Ubi Soft) used to put out pretty good ones.
Looks like money spoils people.
Out of touch, money-focused execs ruin everything. Especially when you have to keep the investors and shareholders happy.
Exactly. You have buyouts that replace creatives with business people and the good developers leave to start another company.
Stadia.
…Is he gonna hire Phil Spencer?
I think you meant Phil Harrison. Spencer is the current head of Microsoft gaming division and Harrison is the turd who somehow keeps failing upwards.
Fuck off Elon.
Wait, lemme guess, its called “X Studios” and its totally gonna change the world forever!
I’m not going to look, but I’m willing to bet, there’s already a “games” studio called X Studios… and they make porno games.
He probably already has every title. And so do the neckbeards that worship him.
I’m assuming you’re like 14 years old if you’re scared to look. But yes, there is already one. VR, AR, motion capture.
There’s a difference between being scared to look and not caring enough to look.
“Scared”? No.
I just don’t care to.
And they’re going to release a console. Named the X Machine.
Actually, it would be cool if it was the “X Machina”
The richest man in the world complains companies with 1% of his persona wealth are too big.
What the actual F.
Yes’just jealous he hasn’t got a game studio. He wants so badly to be cool.
He’s angry he doesn’t own culture. He’s trying to buy the ability to control culture. And to a certain extent I imagine that he’s angry that American pop culture has long flowed from groups he’s bigoted towards.
Microsoft owns most of it
I don’t give a shit what Trump’s little bitch thinks thinks about video games.
This will go as well as Grummz’ (aka Bus Guy) new game studio. Also Amazon tried and failed, Facebook tried and failed, Google tried and failed. Non of these Silicon Valley cunts know how to start and run a creative endeavor like a game studio.
Netflix too.
Talking about “non-woke” AI. How’s Grok doing? Still hating him like all his other children?
Elon Musk says too many game studios are owned by giant corporations
Uh oh. Am I going to have to agree with the worst person in the world?
so his giant corporation is going to start a studio to ‘make games great again’
Oh whew. He’s got the worst possible solution to the problem. The world is still correctly aligned.
