Elon Musk Said Grok's Roasts Would Be 'Epic' at Parties--So I Tried It on My Coworkers

WIRED 

Elon Musk Said Grok's Roasts Would Be'Epic' at Parties--So I Tried It on My Coworkers It went about as well as you'd expect. We can debate the worthiness of Elon Musk's accomplishments--building up Tesla, hollowing out the government, shooting for Mars --but we can all agree that his insistence on being seen as funny is his most grating quality. From the constant 4:20 references to his quote tweet "dunks" to awarding " Certified Bangers " badges to silly X posts, Musk's desperation for validation knows no bounds. It can get pretty annoying when the richest guy on earth makes a joke and then awkwardly eyes the room waiting for everyone to laugh. But over the weekend, I was intrigued when a clip emerged of Musk telling Joe Rogan that using Grok's Unhinged Mode to deliver an "epic vulgar roast" is a surefire way to "make people really laugh at a party."
