Taking a piss test a month later to prove you weren’t on drugs that aren’t found in urine after a couple of days is so hopelessly dumb.

If the theory is he's a drug addict, I don't see the richest man in the world putting down his drug of choice to pass a drug test for a point.

I do, because although he’s also the richest man in the world, he is also among the most insecure. This is the same guy who pretended to be a top ranked player at a video game he clearly barely played.

Also as a private citizen taking a drug test just for shits and giggles he’s obviously in a perfect situation to just lie and have someone take the test for him, but I’m not really claiming that one.

the idea that rich people can and do engage in such shenanigans apparently is not considered even a remote possibility in mississippi

I guess it's possible... like it's possible that he just isn't on drugs.

Personally, I don't care either way. If he's drugged up and still one of the most successful guys in yhe world, whatever... not like he's out panhandling or breaking into cars to steal.

It is true he is not panhandling and breaking into cars.

Methinks the gentleman doth protest too much.

If Elon is acting in good faith here I am genuinely curious at what point Elon would need to grapple with one of two possibilities:

1) Some elements of right-wing political commentary is based on outright falsehoods in a way he only thinks the left is guilty of.

2) We’re still too far away from genuine Artificial Intelligence to utilize these language models in the manner in which he claims we can/should use them currently or in the near future.

Grok is obviously a product of some mentally-ill leftist programmers. With apologies for the redundant phrasing.

Most drugs are out of your system in 12-24 hours. Even if not, there are beverages you can drink an hour before a test to completely mask the drugs… I know because I used some of the stuff when I was an undergraduate to get a job. It worked… if I can afford something like that as a poor college student, the richest man in the world has access to whatever he wants. A passing drug test means absolutely nothing. The dude has said he has used ketamine regularly in the past. I’m sorry… if you are regularly using ketamine, you are a drug addict.
