Musk Forms AI Outfit After Seeking Pause On AI

Elon Musk is out to counter Microsoft and Google artificial intelligence efforts with "truth-seeking AI" that shuns political correctness, he said during an interview aired, Agence France-Presse (AFP) reported.

The billionaire boss of Twitter and Tesla voiced anew his concerns about the danger of AI, saying it has "the potential of civilizational destruction." Curiously, Musk has violated his own attempt to stop work on AI after OpenAI introduced ChatGPT and beat Musk and other players in their own game.

Musk, who invested in OpenAI, jumped ship in 2018 after his attempt to manage the company was rejected by founder Sam Altman and others who claimed Musk’s bloated ego and narcissism would kill the rationality of AI.

Musk's founding of a rival to OpenAI came several weeks before he initiated an open letter urging an overall hiatus in the development of AI technology.

The signatories argued that the pause should be used to bolster regulation and ensure AI systems were safe.

Critics, however, called the letter a "hot mess" of "AI hype" that misrepresented an academic paper. His founding the truth-seeking AI, which sounds like Trump’s TruthSocial, shows Musk lied about seeking a hiatus on AI development.
