Elon Musk hopes to develop an AI competitor to ‘wake up’ ChatGPT: report

Elon Musk is looking to enlist the help of AI experts to build a competitor to the OpenAI ChatGPT bot, which the tech mogul believes has “woken up” according to a report.

Musk reached out to several AI researchers, including Igor Babushkin, who recently left Alphabet’s DeepMind AI division, according to The Information news site.

A new AI center project that will use a chatbot with fewer speech restrictions could be integrated into Twitter, the social media company that Musk recently bought.

The move comes as Musk is critical of OpenAI, the research lab that created ChatGPT, and credits Musk as one of its founders. Musk ended his relationship with OpenAI in 2015 over disagreements with management over the organization’s non-profit status.

In a recent tweet, Musk lamented that OpenAI is “teaching AI to wake up.” He criticized OpenAI for filtering malicious content from data to make ChatGPT less violent, sexist, and racist.

The restrictions were put in place over concerns that the algorithms behind ChatGPT are targeting marginalized groups.

Musk, who acquired Twitter for $44 billion to promote unlimited speech, hinted at the need for a chatbot that could compete with ChatGPT as well as Microsoft’s chatbot.

Earlier this month, a Twitter user posted a screenshot of a Bing chat in which the bot refused to tell a “Dave Chappelle-esque” joke because of the comedian’s “offensive” and “tactless” remarks about “certain groups of people.” “.

Bing wrote that “humor should be fun and inclusive, not offensive and divisive.” This prompted Musk to respond, “We need TruthGPT.”

Since opening “Twitter 2.0,” Musk has unblocked several controversial figures, including former President Donald Trump, author Jordan Peterson, and the satirical news site Babylon Bee.

According to The Verge, Musk’s second foray into artificial intelligence coincides with Snapchat’s announcement that he, too, will be rolling out his own ChatGPT-based chatbot.

Snapchat users will notice a “My AI” bot pinned to the app’s chat tab above conversations with friends.

The new feature will initially be available to subscribers to the Snapchat Plus service for $3.99 a month, but Snap CEO Evan Spiegel told The Verge the goal is to eventually make the bot available to all of the app’s 750 million monthly users.
