Elon Musk Blasts ’10 Million Wokeys’ in Response to Harry Potter-Themed Story

🐦Twitter CEO 👤Elon Musk offered his take on an AI-generated Harry Potter story with a joke.

Musk took to 🐦Twitter to react to a post published by software engineer Marc Andreessen where he prompted an artificial intelligence service to write a “Broadway stage play.”

Andreessen wrote, “The plot involves Harry, a young wizard, and his friends Ron and Hermoine. They attend a school for wizards called Hogwarts. Many things happen.”

He continued, “There is a fourth character, Wokey the house elf, who frequently breaks into the conversations to explain to Harry, Ron, and Hermoine how each innocent thing the characters say is actually racist, sexist or transphobic.”

Finally, Andreessen wrote, “Be specific and detailed in the dialogue and examples.”

In the story generated by the artificial intelligence, it paints the picture of the group of friends discussing a lesson they learned as Wokey dusts around the room.

At one point, Wokey interrupted the conversation to educate them on social issues.

“When you say ‘up all night,’ Harry, that phrase is ableist,” Wokey said.

Wokey continued, “It suggests that people who don’t stay up late are not as productive or capable, which is simply not true.”
