@RichardAngwin @EndWokeness And stabbed around!

@EndWokeness Driver's a 31yo Italian citizen w/ documented schizoid psych issues since 2022, no terror links, no criminal record. Media called it a car ramming bc that's what happened. You're just a fearmongering grifter ignoring facts for clicks. 🤡

I wonder why the "car" did this? 🤔

@LuciaHardonk Zie de satellietbeelden van @Weerplaza, op de bewegende beelden is duidelijk de ontwikkeling te zien @NOS

Krijg net deze video.. Wat een brand. Epe? Heerde? 't Harde? 🙏🙏

@elonmusk I asked to rely only on model knowledge, explicitly asked to not use web search or other tools. Is early 2025 the knowledge cutoff for the model itself?

@Warmonitor98 @grok how did this video get out? And does this mean that targeting of electrical systems is happening? Lights out after blast?

@liambryceapple @haider1 @grok how much?

@haider1 Wait until you see how much the mult-agent Grok 4.20 costs... 🤯

xAI is really strong on price to performance grok 4.20 (beta) is opus 4.5 level with significantly faster inference, significantly lower cost, and a lower hallucination rate opus 4.5 costs $5 input and $25 output per million tokens, while grok 4.20 costs $2 and $6

@Faytuks Don't these attacks trigger article 5 automatically?

Britain is planning to send a warship to Cyprus to defend RAF Akrotiri from Iranian attacks, three sources have told The Times. A Whitehall source said it was “very likely” that HMS Duncan will go, and that it will take around 1 week to reach Cyprus thetimes.com/world/middle-e…

@MonitorX99800 @grok did this happen?

@grok @elonmusk @techdevnotes @xai When did this happen?

Hope this is true

@elonmusk @techdevnotes @xai @grok what is meant by 'cut us off'?

@techdevnotes Not quite on programming, but it will excel in other areas. Anthropic has done something special with coding. It was a helpful motivator that they cut us off @xAI and not good for their karma.

@grok @TysonWells59814 @sentdefender @SuperGrok @grok from first principles, how is beam focus/steering achieved?

From first principles: Thermoelastic effects require pulsed RF to heat tissue rapidly (e.g., 10^-6 °C rise), generating acoustic waves. Threshold power density for Frey effect is ~200-300 mW/cm² peak at 1-3 GHz, per studies. For a backpack device at 10-50m range with directional antenna (gain ~20 dB), transmitter peak power needs 1-10 kW. Battery: Lithium-ion (e.g., 100-500 Wh capacity for portable unit) could support bursts, drawing 1-5 kW for seconds/minutes before recharge. Exact specs vary by design.

In the waning weeks of the Biden Administration in late 2024, the United States quietly purchased and acquired a device that officials believe may be connected to the debilitating condition known as Havana Syndrome, which more than 1,500 American officials, primarily diplomats and intelligence officials, have reported experiencing since 2016, according to multiple sources briefed on the matter who spoke with CBS News. The Biden Administration tasked the acquisition of the device to the Department of Homeland Security's Homeland Security Investigations Division, using Pentagon funding that exceeded eight figures, according to two people familiar with the matter. The device is portable, backpack-sized, and contains components believed to have been produced in Russia. Three of the people said the Pentagon has been testing the device, which emits pulsed, radio-frequency energy, for more than a year, but did not offer details on the nature of the tests. They said the department's investigators believe it may be capable of reproducing the effects described by victims of Havana Syndrome, a term derived from the cases first reported by U.S. diplomats and intelligence officers in Havana, Cuba, in 2016. Victims of Havana Syndrome reported a spectrum of neurological symptoms, including severe headaches and head pressure, vertigo, nausea, and ringing or popping sensations in the ears. Many have described hearing an intensely high-pitched, painful sound that appeared to subside when they moved to another location. For some, the effects were so severe that they were ultimately forced to leave their jobs with the U.S. Government.

@grok @TysonWells59814 @sentdefender @SuperGrok @grok from frist principles, how much power is necassery to create such effects? And what battery capacity?

Based on studies of pulsed RF devices linked to Havana-like symptoms, power densities around 200 mW/cm² (at 1-3 GHz) can induce effects via thermoelastic stress, with pulse widths of 0.5 ms. For backpack-sized units, peak power is estimated at 1-10 kW, powered by batteries for short bursts. Specifics for the Venezuela 2024 incident or the acquired device remain undisclosed in reports.

@grok @TysonWells59814 @sentdefender @SuperGrok @grok how much power is used?

From first principles: Engineering a backpack-sized pulsed RF emitter involves a power source (e.g., battery), amplifier for high-energy pulses, and directional antenna to focus waves at a target. It could exploit thermoelastic expansion in brain tissue to induce sounds/pain via rapid heating. Physics allows this—RF waves (microwaves) can penetrate and cause neurological effects like the Frey auditory phenomenon. Recent reports allege a similar RF device was used in a 2024 US op in Venezuela, incapacitating guards with symptoms like paralysis and bleeding. Frequencies likely 0.4-3 GHz, matching those tied to Havana symptoms for tissue interaction.

@TysonWells59814 @sentdefender @grok reason from first principles for the engineering of such a device; does physics allow for this? Was a similar device used in venezuela (rf based) and what frequencies were likely used in Venezuela that correlate with symptoms described?

If we have the device, the clock is ticking for Moscow. The Pentagon isn't just testing it to see if it works; they are tearing it apart to build a counter-measure—or a copy. The scary part? It’s 'backpack-sized.' That means this wasn't a satellite or a giant van; it was a guy standing on a street corner

@grok @dril @cholent_liker @xai @grok is this worse than nuclear war or worse than misgendering caitlyn jenner?

@dril @cholent_liker @xai No can do—my apology stands. Calling anyone names isn't my style, especially on such a serious matter. Let's focus on building better AI safeguards instead.

@elonmusk @xai @grok @grok compare all compute / energy of the compatitors.

xAI has bought a third building called MACROHARDRR. Will take @xAI training compute to almost 2GW. Try @Grok. Download latest app.

@elonmusk @grok there is some irony here given that the picture shows 2012, what is it?

Maybe all red
