A major focus of the project will be the creation of a language model called TruthGPT, which is intended to become a competitor to ChatGPT. Musk called on regulators to increase their attention to artificial intelligence while highlighting its potential in autonomous vehicles or robots in the future.
A week ago, Meta Platform launched a new social network called Threads to compete with Twitter, which has also become the fastest-growing app in history with 100 million signups in five days. Many users switched to either Threads or another platform after Twitter experienced several technical issues, including a limit on the posts that can be seen per day. The move was taken by Twitter due to concerns about the use of data by AI development companies. Musk's response to these facts is thus to create his own artificial intelligence project that would provide a "search for truth" while focusing on creating a safer environment. Its main feature will be the utmost curiosity with which it will seek to understand the true nature of the universe. Musk has incorporated a company in Nevada called X.AI Corp, of which he is the sole director and Jared Birchall, the managing director of Musk's family office, is the secretary. He also put forward his prediction that superintelligence surpassing human intelligence will emerge within the next five to six years.
Musk shares opinions with China
China has expressed interest in international cooperation on the regulation of artificial intelligence. Musk shared this information at a Twitter Space event, where he spoke about his recent visit to China, during which Chinese government officials expressed interest in creating such a system. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin stated China's commitment to developing and managing artificial intelligence. China has also introduced temporary restrictions on its fast-growing industry, underlining its focus on creating responsible technology.
