that's the hilarious paradox at the center of his antics. Musk is infamously petty and insecure. We're talking about the guy who tweaked Grok's system prompt to flatter him and paid someone to boost his fucking Diablo character for clout. I wouldn't put "looking through chat histories" past him for one second.

Reddits owner is also petty and insecure and edited other peoples posts, Elon hasn't done that yet. Didn't seem to stop reddit from getting popular, people don't really care that much.
I'm not saying Musk isn't petty, I just think that in this crazy world, especially with the lines between public and private slowly blurring, we could have news like "some AI lab let the owner or a higher-up read chat histories" come out of any company and barely make a splash in the mainstream. Maybe it would be discussed for a few days on HN before something else takes the attention away.
