Elon Musk has created X.AI Corpa company that, as its name already indicates, specializes in artificial intelligence. The record, found by The Wall Street Journal, was held in the state of Nevada during this week. At the moment, the organization chart of the company only shows two members. Elon Musk himself, who serves as CEO, and Jared Birchall, the secretary.
It seems that Elon Musk does not want to waste time to start developing artificial intelligence solutions as soon as possible. And it is that the same document informs that the sale of 100 million shares has been authorized. The goal, of course, is to raise private capital to launch the tycoon’s ideas.
Just a few days ago Business Insider echoed that Elon Musk had bought thousands of graphics cards to start development of a new model of artificial intelligence language. Although the X.AI registry does not mention specific projects, surely one of them has to do with this proposal.
AI language models are on the rise. Since OpenAI has allowed more people to experiment with it through ChatGPT, more and more companies are interested in following a similar path. Elon Musk, who already has experience in the sector after participating in the OpenAI foundation, and for all the solutions they have developed at Tesla, could not be left behind.
Will X have its own artificial intelligence?
Another interesting point is that the name of the entity is also related to one of Elon Musk’s most ambitious projects. We must remember that the aforementioned bought Twitter to make X a reality in the future. It is an all-in-one platform inspired by WeChat, the popular Chinese application.
“Buy Twitter is an accelerator to create X, the app for everything.”
Elon Musk.
Elon Musk’s plan is to create a super app that, in addition to providing the basic functions of a social network, offers messaging and payment services. Now, with the registration of X.AI, it is clear that artificial intelligence can also be a fundamental part of your strategy.
OpenAI proved that language models could be the next gold mine for the tech industry. ChatGPT, for example, offers a payment method to access additional functions. Let us not be surprised that, in a few years, X will integrate a kind of virtual assistant with capabilities similar to those of ChatGPT.
Of course, developing a language model is not something that is achieved overnight. It is one thing to produce the logical structure, and quite another to train it to obtain the expected results. X.IA will have to start from the last place, because only OpenAI is several years ahead of you.
