Elon Musk is launching a new ambitious artificial intelligence reconnaissance project. It’s called xAi, a company by which the South African magnate wants to compete with ChatGPT and create an intelligence that is “curious to understand the true nature of the universe.”
For this purpose, a team of professionals was formed from various companies working in the DeepMind sector, OpenAI, Google Research, Microsoft… Musk himself will directly supervise the project and “work closely with X (Twitter), Tesla, and other companies to carry out advances in our mission.”
The mission with the purpose, as confirmed by Musk himself through both a short and extensive and ambitious tweet, is to “understand reality.”
And he himself, just a few weeks ago, explained that “we should pause, I think there is a real danger associated with super artificial intelligence, with dire consequences; if we do not carefully create generative artificial intelligence, we can produce a potentially catastrophic outcome.”
