AI is not developed far enough to find ways to make Zuckerberg likeable.

Maybe when we have quantum computers and we combine them with AI, he has a chance.

He's spending billions in AI to create a virtual version himself that everyone likes because he's a regular dude meister who's taking the metaverse... TO THE EXTREME!

Imho, the Metaverse is exactly where Zuckerberg should be.

That's the one place you can be pretty sure you'll never see any real people...

Regardless, nobody will ever be able to judge based on your pants, and I know we can all agree that's what's really important.

I see a cyborg megalomaniacal villain.

Reminds me of Asimov's The Last Question.
"Multivac, how can the net amount of dislike for Zuckerberg be massively decreased?"

Multivac: ".... Insufficient data for meaningful answer."

I fully understand why your brain jumps to Asimov. It would require a brain like his to grasp the Zuck.

Only if it's on the blockchain too.

If he was in my wallet, I'd delete the private key.
