Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX, Tesla, and now Twitter, is known for his innovation and forward-thinking mindset
0:07
Well, recently Forbes and a few other media outlets have speculated on the possibility
0:11
of Musk creating his own chatbot to compete with OpenAI's popular chat GPT
0:17
According to the information, Musk is in the process of speaking with different AI experts
0:23
Most notably, research Igor Babushkin, who previously worked on Google's DeepMind AI project
0:30
Now, Musk has never been one to shy away from controversy. And on Twitter, he's been openly critical about how chat GPT has been influenced by
0:38
quote, woke culture. If you don't know what that means, then Google is your friend
0:43
Some have praised Musk for taking a stand against the perceived excesses of woke culture
0:48
while others have criticized him for promoting intolerance and bigotry. Now, also on Twitter, Musk has been critical of OpenAI's recent partnership with Microsoft
0:57
claiming that it contrasts with OpenAI's original goal of being an open-source technology
1:02
to compete with Google. In this tweet, he called OpenAI a closed-source, maximum-profit company effectively controlled
1:10
by Microsoft. Now, what's surprising about the criticism is that Musk is actually one of OpenAI's co-founders
1:17
among CEO Sam Altman and a host of others. Musk resigned from OpenAI in 2018, citing a potential conflict of interest
1:26
And one year later, OpenAI transitioned from a non-profit to a capped for-profit company
1:34
Up until recently, Musk spoke fairly complimentary about OpenAI when the company publicly launched
1:39
chat GPT. But it appears that some of the recent directions and developments of OpenAI have changed his
1:46
opinion on the company that he co-founded. So regardless of whether Musk actually goes through and starts building his chat bot
1:54
it is certain that this type of AI technology will continue to play an increasingly important
1:59
role in our lives and we'll likely see more innovations in this area for years to come
