Elon Musk Plans AI To Rival Tech Giants.

Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk plans to launch an artificial intelligence (AI) platform called “TruthGPT” that he claims will be “truth-seeking” and safe for humanity. Musk, who founded OpenAI in 2015 to counter Google’s AI offerings, criticized the firm and its chatbot, ChatGPT, for being “for-profit” and “closed-source.”

Musk had also claimed that existing AI businesses were training their systems to be “politically correct.”

Musk hopes that his AI platform will challenge the products of Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) and Google (NASDAQ: GOOGL) and become the “best path to safety” for humanity. According to sources with knowledge of the matter, Musk has been poaching AI researchers from Google to launch a startup for the project.

In March 2023, Elon Musk registered a company called X.AI Corp in Nevada. According to Investor’s Business Daily, Musk is the sole director of the company and plans to make a private sale of 100 million shares of the new startup.

The billionaire has recently joined a group of AI experts and executives who have called for a six-month pause in the development of AI systems that are more powerful than OpenAI’s GPT-4 model due to potential risks to society.
