Long before OpenAI's ChatGPT took the internet by storm, Elon Musk was a regular AI critic. But last month the owner of Twitter went as far as to sign an open letter calling for a pause on further AI training due to potential dangers with artificial intelligence.
But, while Musk has called for an AI pause, he apparently is going ahead with an AI project of his own.
According to a report from Insider, Elon Musk has recently acquired 10,000 GPUs, an investment for a new AI project at Twitter. It's unclear exactly what the AI project is. However, Insider's sources said that Twitter is planning to use its data to train a large language model or LLM and speculated that it could be for updating Twitter's search or ad serving tools.
OpenAI has used Twitter's data to train its own language models. However, Musk said in December that he was "pausing" OpenAI's access to Twitter's database.
Working on large AI models is an intensive, and costly, process. Insider points out that GPUs for AI training made by leading manufacturer Nvidia can cost roughly $10,000, putting Musk's purchase at a likely price tag in the tens of millions of dollars.
Musk has been unhappy with OpenAI, which he co-founded in 2015 and has since cut ties with the organization. Since ChatGPT became the fastest growing app of all time earlier this year, Musk has hinted at creating his own "based" ChatGPT competitor. He's also taken shots at Microsoft, OpenAI's largest partner, which has integrated OpenAI's language models into its Bing search engine. Last month, Musk questioned Microsoft's decision to cut its AI ethics team, even though he laid off Twitter's very own AI ethics team when he took over the company.
At Tesla, Musk has been much less gloomy about certain kinds of AI, thanks to the electric car company's need for these technologies in the development of self-driving vehicles. Time will tell if Musk's opinion of AI chatbots shifts as well once he's integrated it into one of his own business models.

I remember when he warned that people should not invest in crypto, after he invested in crypto. He's clearly special.
ReplyDeleteIt’s funny how 1800 people signed that letter to suggest a pause and everyone is focused on the only name on that letter that they know.
ReplyDeleteIt would solve zero problems if only one person out of 1800 took a break. He can’t be the only one taking a break, it would be pointless…

he's likely the only one to backtrack like he doesn't even believe his own spew, but I'm sure his fans see it much differently.
DeleteWe know a lot of those signatures were fake. And a lot of the papers cited are from people who don't think a ban is justified. It's pretty discredited, even if it wasn't obviously a knee jerk attempt to seem relevant by people behind the curve.
DeleteIt’s called ulterior motive or agenda!
DeleteAlmost like the rush to save the enviroment due too climate change.
DeleteEM is a swirling cacophony of contradiction
ReplyDeleteor maybe he bought it to halt its development
DeleteSo, perhaps he’s getting into AI to create a safe AI that could neutralize future evil AI?
ReplyDeletethat'd be awesome, but I assume he's doing it because they're simply not stopping so he has to participate. Like a bunch of kids running around with knives... you don't want to be knifeless.
DeleteHe may be the evil AI.
DeleteSo what? i m against fires in nature, but i like to have one in the living room...
ReplyDeletebut are against everyone else having one in their living room?
DeleteWell he wasn’t the only person who signed this letter, but he’s the only one that’s expected to follow through?
Delete"If we don't, someone else will" - the industrial revalution
ReplyDeleteHe asked for a pause so that he could try and catch up. 🤣
ReplyDeletethat’s exactly it 💯
Deleteas were many others who signed it! What a hypocritical joke.
DeleteA Babbling contradiction.
ReplyDeleteMusta watched too many SiFi movies.
ReplyDeleteWhat goes on in his spinning mind?
ReplyDeleteMusk: you all stop what your doing so I can catch up!
ReplyDeleteIt's called market manipulation, and it's his main move. He's Trump, without the red hat.
ReplyDeleteConsidering what I see in "For You", perhaps AI should mean Any Intelligence
ReplyDeleteHe needs to lay off the weed and Ambien.
ReplyDeletesays the guy eating Cheetos and doing nothing productive with his time 😂
DeleteI despise Cheetos.
Deletesays the Elon cuck who’s defending a billionaire like he’s his daddy.
Deleteconstructed insult. I’ll have to thank your third grade teacher for the grammar 🤔
DeleteHe's using ChatGPT to make his decisions.
ReplyDeletehe could use a Magic 8 Ball and make better decisions than he does on his own.
DeleteThe Saudis boy is attacking the only real news we have. Fox News gets a Free Pass of course
ReplyDeleteHe just wants to slow down competitors to catch up. 🙄
ReplyDeleteWell we know what this means the Android has absorbed him into the larger Borg normally I don't think someone of his intelligence would switch his idea so quickly LOL what are you guys thinking Skynet? Or more of a iRobot situation
ReplyDeleteClassic mush!
ReplyDeleteThe pause didn't happen so he made the logical decision
ReplyDeleteClearly Musk stands to lose something
ReplyDeleteHe lied! Well I never! 😁
ReplyDeleteFuture investment
ReplyDelete'Everybody needs to pause so I can catch up'

That's the only he can catch up.
DeleteIf please wait for me to catch up was a person
ReplyDeleteFurther reason to abandon twitter
ReplyDeleteThe guy is not any kind of God
ReplyDeleteI hope that he goes back down the hole that he came out of
Your fault for taking the man seriously. He’s a joke.
ReplyDeleteHow about a months-long pause on Musk?
ReplyDeletecan we go longer? I'd prefer much longer please.

ReplyDeleteHubris is the absolute most dangerous thing to society.
ReplyDeleteMaybe they control him already? LOL
ReplyDeleteStop guys! I need time to catch up with you.
ReplyDeleteComputers are our friend and provide unmatched guidance.
ReplyDeleteTHIS MAN IS PURE EVIL!!!
ReplyDelete#FACT
Maybe he could see if throwing some doge coin its way will help. That seems to be his solution to everything.
ReplyDeleteHe's hysterical.
ReplyDeleteWell yeah he would know. He's a real life bond villian...
ReplyDeleteHe's worried an AI will do a better job of running (into the ground) Twitter
ReplyDeleteThat's why he needed time to catch up.

ReplyDeleteHe Works for the AI...
ReplyDeleteIf I disappear, it was for this post.
An amazing Hypocrite.
ReplyDeleteThere's some nuance missing here. He has been saying for years, ever since he began investing in OpenAI (which produced ChatGPT) that AI needs some guardrails. He had never been against AI itself, but rightly recognizes that its potential is powerful enough to be a Pandora's Box.
ReplyDeleteOpenAI, in fact, was founded on the principles of being more careful and methodical about AI progress than most, but it shifted from a non-profit to a for-profit when Microsoft took over. Suddenly, the guardrails are off and it's charging full-steam ahead. Others who have been more careful (such as Google) are now throwing off their guardrails as well, in an effort to not fall behind.
The dangers from AI are less about a Terminator scenario, but are more about a destabilizing force being thrust into a world that's built upon many different houses of cards. A pause of those at the forefront would be a good idea. This doesn't mean to stop working on AI, but to spend more time considering how to keep the genies within their bottles.
You still don’t t know the game huh
ReplyDeleteTypical!!!!
ReplyDeleteBasura Espacial te dije que este cínico se le fue el tren, poco o nada le interesa frenar la IA en pro de la humanidad. No alcanzo a invertir cuando debía en meta, no alcanzo en ia hace 3 años, ahora ya no va a alcanzar a quienes se les adelantaron.
ReplyDeleteThat is why he needed Twitter maybe?
ReplyDeleteNot a trust worthy person , money went too far in his head , very sad to see someone who created such great products falling so low
ReplyDeleteF musk.
ReplyDeleteIs he even real? Maybe we’ve been had!
ReplyDeletePeople are saying the real Elon Musk was retired by a malfunctioning cybernetic replicant months ago…
ReplyDeleteI was about to offer you a cup of coffee…
a cup of coffee…
a cup of coffee…
a cup of coffee…
Did they actually stop?
ReplyDeleteSounds a lot like the bit from GTA online that makes fun of him..
ReplyDeleteFOMO. That's it.
ReplyDeleteMusk bought Twitter .why is he running his mouth with his picture all day long everyday on FACEBOOK ...Ido not trust this guy at all .he is up to no good for America
ReplyDeletethat lying mother trucker
ReplyDeleteFreakin reptilian... 🤣
ReplyDeleteJust because it’s dangerous doesn’t mean it’s not profitable
ReplyDeletePhony Stark strikes again
ReplyDeleteWell how many of you can speak about the dangers of driving a car, yet you still drive cars!? Stop being so hateful and ignorant.
ReplyDeleteIf you ignore government funded, narrative/propaganda pushing, and fearmongering mass media outlets, the world, your neighbors, other cultures, colors, races, and nationalities are quite kind and friendly.
ReplyDeleteHow else can we have so many useful inventions, amazing infrastructure, and beautiful cities?🤔
AI will see this conundrum in all governments around the world and find more just and fair solutions with human rights and morality at the forefront of those solutions.
THIS is why governments and some others REALLY fear AI.
Corruption and unjust personal, professional, and social structures of all kinds will be more aligned with the truth and the false hate and fearmongering will be dialed down to the appropriate level, which is practically nonexistent.
Just a thought.
😈😎😇
hidden agendas of billionaires
ReplyDeleteHe is just an opportunist, nothing more.
ReplyDeletehe’s a megalomaniac

ReplyDeleteMusk is a lying, thieving conman. The AI probably has so many bugs, it doesn't work .
ReplyDeleteHe’s a hero who is brave and takes on woke culture
DeleteHe sticks up For us little guys!

Delete
DeleteThings that hurt my feelings and if life used to be easier and it isn’t now because of equality it’s woke
Brave is someone who embraces “woke”, that’s your true Heroism.
Deleteso what you’re saying is you’re a Snowflake and you haven’t got a clue what the definition of “woke” is.
DeleteHe is highly intelligent but going to Mars is more stupid than investing in AI.
ReplyDeletemusk is an idiot.
