minus-squareDudeImMacGyver@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up16arrow-down1·2 年前They should’ve picked a better person to lie about, especially if it’s supposed to be a developer.
minus-squareHegar@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up20·2 年前No way. You want someone who’s so obviously an idiot that his face alone selects out anyone with critical reasoning faculties. Being a deepfake used to find rubes willing to give over money to an obvious scam is the platonic ideal of elon musk. Bravo, grifters. Bravo.
