Elon Musk's latest venture, xAI, aims to develop a beneficial artificial general intelligence (AGI) and explore concepts such as dark matter, dark energy, aliens, and gravity. During a Twitter Spaces audio chat, Musk expressed his confidence in creating a competitive alternative to major players like Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI. Friday's chat about xAI drew an audience of over 1.6 million listeners. - During the talk, Musk suggested that the mission statement of xAI could be humorously rephrased as "What the hell is really going on?"
- The CEO expressed a desire for xAI to build a "good AGI," or superintelligence on par with human intelligence, and gain a deeper understanding of the universe.
- Through xAI's efforts, Musk predicted the emergence of AGI by 2029.
- Given its inevitability, he said there are two choices: be a spectator or a participant.
Musk also criticized profit-driven public companies and highlighted xAI's freedom as a non-publicly traded entity. - While still in the early stages, xAI will also work closely with his other ventures, Twitter and Tesla.
- The company plans to use Twitter data for training its AI models and may also collaborate with Tesla on AI software, improving its self-driving car capabilities.
