Elon musk ai

The Twitter owner has become increasingly vocal about the dangers of AI in recent months, suggesting that Musk has been particularly sharp in his criticism of ChatGPT developer OpenAI, the company he helped cofound before leaving the board in 2018 and selling his stake, for The commercial rollout of the AI chatbot has raised concerns about Andreessen's lengthy blog, published June 6, sought to shut down some of what he described as the

• Elon Musk took credit for the existence of OpenAI and said he came up with the startup's name. • Musk was an OpenAI cofounder and invested $50 million into the company. He left the startup in 2018. • He criticized OpenAI's business model and its relationship with Microsoft, one of its current investors. Elon Musk appears to be split about how he feels about OpenAI. Musk expressed concerns about OpenAI while simultaneously taking credit for the existence of the AI startup behind ChatGPT. "I am the reason OpenAI exists," Musk told Musk told CNBC he invested around $50 million at the time and was "instrumental" in recruiting key scientists and engineers. He also the brain behind its name, he said. "It does seem weird that something can be a non-profit, open source and somehow transform itself into a for-profit, closed source," he told CNBC's Faber. "This would be like, let's say you found an organization to save the Amazon rainforest, and instead they become a lumber company, and chop down the forest, and sold it for money." Musk told CNBC Microsoft could "cut off OpenAI" at any point and has a lot of control over the startup. "I also think it's important to understand when push comes to shove — let's say they create some digital super-intelligence, almost god-like intelligence, who's in control? What is exactly the relationship between OpenAI and Microsoft?"

Some alarming words from the guy who literally wrote the book on the human race. The open letter argues that now's the time to put guardrails in place because AI will soon be too intelligent to constrain. Or in the words of Musk, if we "only put in regulations after something terrible has happened, it may be too late to actually put the regulations in place. The AI may be in control at that point." The problem is, as always, the culture war; the way in which many important issues are co-opted and made partisan by politicians and online grifters hell bent on weaponizing the sort of tribalism that's been rendered visible every day on social media platforms like Twitter. If AI becomes part of the culture war, thoughtful and extensive regulation will be much harder to achieve. The process of politicization may have already begun. That Musk quote above? He gave it during an appearance on Tucker Carlson's show, back when Carlson "Longer term, AI may become autonomous and take over the world. But in the short term, it's being used by politicians to control what you think, to end your independent judgment and end democracy on the eve of a presidential election." Elon Musk is one of many tech luminaries petitioning a pause in AI development for 6 months. Bloomberg/Getty Bad precedents The unchecked spread of AI could prelude disaster. But if there's one thing US lawmakers have proven themselves adept at, it's courting disaster for political gain. This is often done via fear mongeri...

Musk has been publicly skeptical of the future of artificial intelligence in the past and has even called for a “Recent months have seen AI labs locked in an out-of-control race to develop and deploy ever more powerful digital minds that no one – not even their creators – can understand, predict, or reliably control,” a group of tech experts including Musk said in an open letter calling for the development pause last month. In an “In the sense that it has the potential — however small one may regard that probability, but it is non-trivial — it has the potential of civilization destruction,” he said. Musk was a co-founder of OpenAI, one of the leading artificial intelligence firms, but left the company in 2018 after a reported internal power struggle. He has reportedly sought to build a Artificial intelligence has become a hot market in recent years, with Microsoft investing The company joins Musk’s broad portfolio alongside Twitter, automaker Tesla, SpaceX, tunneling company Boring and biotech firm Neuralink.

WASHINGTON, June 5 (Reuters) - The Chinese government will seek to initiate artificial intelligence regulations in its country, billionaire Elon Musk said on Monday after meeting with officials during his recent trip to China. Musk did not elaborate further and made his remarks in a Twitter Space with Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Monday. "It's worth noting that on my recent trip to China, I went to senior leadership there. I think we had some very productive discussions on artificial intelligence risks, and the need for some oversight and regulation," said Musk, owner of Twitter and Tesla Inc "And my understanding from those conversations is that China will be initiating AI regulation in China." Reuters was not immediately able to reach Chinese officials for comment outside of normal business hours. Musk departed Shanghai on Thursday, wrapping up a Musk met with China's foreign, commerce and industry ministers in Beijing. He also met with Chinese Vice Premier Ding Xuexiang on Wednesday, a source familiar with the matter said. Several governments are considering how to mitigate the dangers of the emerging technology, which has experienced a boom in investment and consumer popularity in recent months after the release of OpenAI's ChatGPT. In April, the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) said that China supports AI innovation and application and encourages use of safe and reliable software, tools and data resources, but content generated by...

March 29 (Reuters) - (This March 29 story has been corrected to to show that the Musk Foundation is a major, not the primary donor to FLI, in paragraph 4) Elon Musk and a group of artificial intelligence experts and industry executives are calling for a six-month pause in developing systems more powerful than OpenAI's newly launched GPT-4, in an Earlier this month, Microsoft-backed OpenAI unveiled the "Powerful AI systems should be developed only once we are confident that their effects will be positive and their risks will be manageable," said the letter issued by the Future of Life Institute. The Musk Foundation is a major donor to the non-profit, as well as London-based group Founders Pledge, and Silicon Valley Community Foundation, according to the European Union's "AI stresses me out," Musk, who has expressed "It is ... deeply hypocritical for Elon Musk to sign on given how hard Tesla has fought against accountability for the defective AI in its self-driving cars," said James Grimmelmann, a professor of digital and information law at Cornell University. "A pause is a good idea, but the letter is vague and doesn't take the regulatory problems seriously." Tesla last month had to 'OUTNUMBER, OUTSMART, OBSOLETE' OpenAI didn't immediately respond to a request for comment on the open letter, which urged a pause on advanced AI development until shared safety protocols were developed independent experts and called on developers to work with policymakers on governance.
