Elon Musk has dismissed the idea of an AI "winter" and suggested that the current AI boom is just the beginning. In response to comments from Quora CEO Adam D'Angelo, Musk tweeted that there will be no winter for AI and expressed optimism about the continuous progress and eventual development of artificial general intelligence (AGI). D'Angelo also shared his belief in the ongoing advancements of AI, highlighting the numerous untapped possibilities and the significant growth in computing power.
Adam D'Angelo further clarified his definition of artificial general intelligence (AGI) as the capability to perform any task a human can do on a computer with internet access, excluding robotics. He expressed less confidence in physical machines.
The release of OpenAI's ChatGPT has fueled the AI frenzy, leading to a surge in the industry and triggering a race among tech giants. This has resulted in significant stock market rallies in related companies.
In the midst of this AI boom, Elon Musk has reportedly launched a new company called X.AI dedicated to artificial intelligence, according to the Wall Street Journal. Musk's involvement in AI extends further, with reports of him purchasing thousands of graphic processing units for an AI product and plans to compete with OpenAI, as reported by Insider and the Financial Times.
During Tesla's annual shareholder meeting, Musk referred to the emergence of artificial general intelligence as a singularity, acknowledging its unpredictable consequences and potential risks, referring to it as a "double-edged sword."
