It’s official: Elon Musk already ventures into the world of Artificial Intelligence with his own company. It was an area more related to what his figure as a technological magnate means, and now he competes directly against Open Ai, creators of the ChatGPT.
This new venture is called xAI. Is it a new ChatGPT? Maybe so, but according to what they post on the front page of their site they are much more than just a machine learning chatbot.
“The goal of xAI is to understand the true nature of the universe”, they say in a very profound statement to present this new Artificial Intelligence mechanism. Ever since ChatGPT broke into the world, Elon Musk has commented on the strengths and weaknesses of this system.
Adhering to the line of global analysis, the CEO of Twitter warns about the dangers of using Artificial Intelligence without government regulations. Therefore, Musk’s new company says that among its goals is to “reduce the risks on a societal scale associated with AI by conducting security research.”
The curricular summary of the team that is in charge of this system is first-rate. According to what the same site highlights, these technology stars have their hands in xAI.
The director: Elon Musk, with his credentials of being the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX. With this system, they have already worked at DeepMind, OpenAI, Google Research, Microsoft Research, Tesla and the University of Toronto.
And what are the most fundamental unknown questions?

They note that they contributed “some of the most widely used methods in the field, in particular, Adam’s optimizer, batch normalization, layer normalization, and the discovery of contradictory examples.
They also introduced innovative techniques and analysis such as Transformer-XL, Autoformalization, the Memory Transformer, batch size scaling, and μTransfer. “We have worked with and led the development of some of the greatest advances in the field, including AlphaStar, AlphaCode, Inception, Minerva, GPT-3.5 and GPT-4”, they boasted.
There is still no official chatbot or image generator as part of this initiative that only saw the light of day on July 12. As with Threads, you have to give it the opportunity to fully develop and thus enjoy its functions well.
