Elon Musk, who\u2019s been vocally critical about artificial intelligence lately, seems to be planning something AI related. According to The Wall Street Journal<\/em><\/span> and The Financial Times<\/em><\/span>, Musk has founded a new artificial intelligence company called X.AI Corp. Based on a state filing from last month that the sources have viewed, the new company is incorporated in Nevada and lists Musk as the sole director, as well as Jared Birchall, the director of his family\u2019s offices, as the secretary. The multi-company executive is known to have a special affinity for the letter \u201dX\u201d and has even recently renamed Twitter, Inc. as X Corp.<\/p>\n

Musk is no stranger to AI projects. He co-founded OpenAI before leaving the company almost a decade ago. After ChatGPT\u2019s meteoric rise in popularity, though, Musk advocated for the technology\u2019s regulation and signed an open letter<\/span> that urged tech leaders to put a six-month pause on its development. The Journal<\/em> says Musk thought ChatGPT was politically biased \u2014 he once commented<\/span> on the \u201cdanger of training AI to be woke\u201d \u2014 and that he\u2019s looking create AI models that are \u201ctruth-seeking.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

At this point, though, Musk\u2019s plans for X.AI Corp and whether he\u2019s looking to build a veritable ChatGPT rival remains unclear. While details are still scarce, previous reports provide clues on how Musk\u2019s AI efforts are progressing. He reportedly hired two former DeepMind researchers in March, including scientist Igor Babuschkin, who\u2019s believed to be helming the new project. Musk also reportedly purchased 10,000 GPUs<\/span> for AI development at one of Twitter\u2019s data centers. In addition, according to The Times<\/em>, he\u2019s already in talks with Tesla and SpaceX investors to put money into his new venture.<\/p>\n
