Is it just me or is Elmo now just announcing random shit and hoping that by magic it just instantly exists?

In 2013 he said that his cars would be self-driving by 2016 and has been promising that it would finally happen "by the end of this year" or "next year" ever since.

Offering email isn’t exactly like offering self-driving. Any moron can standup an email host in hours / days.

But have you considered that he's not just any moron? He's a special type that will somehow make it suck.

I’m sure this is all just a fast and easy way to get more data for his LLM.

Let's hope Xmail users use AI to compose their emails with AI then 😁

Well, let's be honest, it's not exactly hard to make email suck. I'm sure he'll find some interesting and creative ways to make it suck worse somehow, though...
