Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has announced plans to launch a new AI program called “TruthGPT,” which he claims will be the ultimate truth-seeking AI. Musk’s vision is to develop an AI that is focused on understanding the nature of the universe, which he believes will prevent AI from becoming uncontrollable and posing a threat to humanity.

The TruthGPT announcement comes after Musk and a group of AI experts called for a six-month pause in developing systems more powerful than OpenAI’s newly launched GPT-4, citing potential risks to society. This move highlights Musk’s concerns about the dangers of AI and the need for careful regulation and oversight of AI development.

Musk’s criticism of OpenAI, which he accuses of training AI to lie, comes at a time when the firm has become “for-profit” and “closely allied with Microsoft.” His decision to launch his own AI company, X.AI, is aimed at challenging the existing AI offerings from Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI, which he claims are not focused on maximum truth-seeking.

The focus on a maximum truth-seeking AI is an innovative approach that could address the potential dangers of advanced AI. Musk’s focus on understanding the universe could be a crucial factor in preventing AI from posing a threat to humanity.

Earlier it was also reported that Musk ordered 100000 GPUs for AI development at Twitter’s data center. His decision to start a new company to promote AI in the ChatGPT era, and his reported poaching of AI researchers from Google to launch a startup to rival OpenAI, shows that he is committed to pursuing his vision of a safer AI landscape.
