After calling for a widespread pause on AI-related innovations to better examine the societal impact of this creeping innovation, Elon Musk has stealthily upped his own AI game. Apart from their obvious cross-synergies vis-à-vis Tesla’s Autopilot Advanced Driver-Assistance System (ADAS) and the Optimus bi-pedal robot, Musk’s AI ambitions do carry Orwellian undertones, given his absolute control over Twitter.
As we noted in a post last week, Elon Musk has poached talent from DeepMind – a subsidiary of the tech giant Alphabet – and purchased around 10,000 GPUs from NVIDIA to train a Large Language Model (LLM) on the pattern of OpenAI’s ChatGPT. However, Musk’s AI ambitions now appear to extend far beyond their original confines.
Recently, Elon Musk merged Twitter with a Nevada-registered holding company, X Corp. On Friday, the Wall Street Journal uncovered another company, bearing Musk’s favored X labeling and again registered in Nevada: X.AI Corp.
While details are extremely scant at the moment, the company’s name is illustrative of Elon Musk’s AI-related goals. As for Nevada, the state offers considerable statutory liability shields, hence its attractiveness for the CEO of Twitter and Tesla.
Bear in mind that Elon Musk has already declared that he intends to create an "everything app" under the tentative X labeling.
