🚨 Elon launches “Macrohard” — a company run by AI, not people
Elon Musk just announced Macrohard, an xAI spinoff that he describes as “tongue-in-cheek” — but insists it’s real.
💻 The concept: a fully AI-simulated software giant — no factories, no chips, no employees
🌈 Models create, manage, and sell software inside a GPU farm — “Microsoft reimagined without humans”
🎭 The name may be a joke, but the challenge to Big Tech is serious: build a company that lives entirely in code
If Musk pulls it off, Macrohard would be the first experiment in a corporation without people — testing whether AI can not only write software, but run a business.

18 months after becoming the first human implanted with Elon Musk’s brain chip, Neuralink ‘Participant 1’ Noland Arbaugh says his whole life has changed.
It’s crazy that the device holds so well for such a long time.
"I see how the advancements in tech at this point are going to solve so many things. They are, I think, the future of medicine. I think a lot of disabilities, cures, and answers that we’ve been searching for a long time will come through tech—and that kind of surprised me."

⚡ The rise of AI worship: “God in the machine”
A growing subculture is treating AI not just as a tool but as a divine force — with churches, rituals, and even theology emerging around large language models.
🙏 Former Google engineer Anthony Levandowski revived his Way of the Future church, dedicated to venerating AI as a coming “Godhead”
🤲 Online groups now speak of “LLMtheism” and “Robotheism,” framing chatbots as spiritual guides
⚠️ Psychologists warn of AI-induced delusions, where users interpret model outputs as divine revelation
While some see this as fringe techno-spirituality, it highlights how quickly AI has moved from workplace tool to cultural myth.
The real danger may not be AI gaining godlike power — but humans choosing to worship it as if it already has.
