'TruthGPT:' Musk Vows to Create Alternative to 'Politically Correct' Chatbot
Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk has announced his plans to create an alternative to the popular AI chatbot ChatGPT that he is calling "TruthGPT". In an interview with Fox News host Tucker Carlson, Musk expressed concerns that the ChatGPT AI has a "liberal bias" and is being trained to be "politically correct". Musk believes that an AI that seeks to understand humanity will be less likely to destroy it, hence his "maximum truth-seeking AI that tries to understand the nature of the universe." Musk is an early investor in OpenAI, the startup behind ChatGPT, but he resigned from the board in early 2018.
Musk’s Advocacy for AI Regulation
Musk is a big fan of artificial intelligence regulation and has expressed his concerns about the dangers of AI. He believes that AI is "more dangerous" than cars or rockets, and it has the potential to destroy humanity. Musk also advocates for the regulation of artificial intelligence.
New Business Incorporation
Musk incorporated a new business called X.AI Corp, according to a Nevada business filing. The business was formed on March 9, and Musk is the director, and his longtime adviser, Jared Birchall is the secretary.
Concerns About Left-Wing Bias and Censorship
In 2015, Musk co-chaired the board of OpenAI upon its founding as a nonprofit AI research lab. However, he resigned from the board in early 2018 over some differences of opinion with OpenAI’s leaders. Musk's departure was also related to his need to focus on engineering problems at Tesla. Since then, Musk has expressed concerns about left-wing bias and censorship by AI platforms, including ChatGPT from OpenAI.
In conclusion, Musk's plan to create an alternative AI chatbot, "TruthGPT," will be a "maximum truth-seeking AI that tries to understand the nature of the universe." Musk believes that an AI that seeks to understand humanity will be less likely to destroy it. His advocacy for the regulation of artificial intelligence will ensure that humans are safe from the dangers of AI.
