AI cartoon by Zimbo: Six-panel strip: teen Hotz jailbreaks the iPhone, 350Z in the driveway; brandishes the PS3 key at Sony's lawyers; waves off Musk's Tesla offer; NHTSA seizes the comma one as openpilot pages fly free; codes Twitter search at HQ; kicker: past a cage labeled THE SYSTEM, picking the next lock.
George Hotz jailbroke the iPhone at 17 and traded it for a Nissan 350Z, cracked the PS3 and stared down Sony's lawyers, turned down Tesla to build a self-driving car in his garage, open-sourced openpilot when the feds came knocking, fixed Twitter search in twelve weeks — and he's still looking for the exit.Zimbo for AI News Page
