Elon Musk launches AI company xAI: A new era of technological evolution

Elon Musk launches AI company xAI: A new era of technological evolution

The famous tech magnate Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX and Tesla and owner of Twitter, announced a new AI company, xAI, last Wednesday. This company aims to understand the universe in a completely new way and marks a new phase in technological evolution that could have a significant impact on businesses and organizations worldwide.

xAI, led by Musk himself, consists of a team of a dozen employees. The announcement of this new venture comes after Musk's criticism of the security measures of ChatGPT, created by OpenAI, of which Musk was an early supporter. Musk expressed his concerns about the potentially dangerous impact of "woke" AI, which he believes leads to misinformation.

With this new project, Musk seems to be seeking the truth through the establishment of a "TruthGPT" that focuses on understanding the universe, as he suggested in a previous interview with Tucker Carlson. This mission aligns with Musk's recently expressed concerns about the possible destructive consequences of AI.

At the same time, Musk finds himself in an uncertain period. Twitter, which he acquired for $44 billion, faces an uncertain future due to the launch of Threads, a competing app from Meta. Despite these challenges, Musk continues to innovate and is actively working on recruiting staff for xAI, a step that could have far-reaching implications for the future of AI.
