Mumbai: The Tesla CEO and Twitter owner launched xAI, a new AI company on 12 July. As per news reports, he mentioned at that time, that its goal “is to understand the true nature of the universe”.

Media reports mention that Elon Musk has pointed out the reasons why his new AI company xAI is better than other companies in the area of artificial intelligence  - such as Google and OpenAI.

The billionaire who had helped put together and co-found OpenAI in 2015, has claimed that OpenAI is “training AI to be woke" and that the company was “effectively controlled by Microsoft”.

In a recent Twitter Spaces discussion, Musk brought out that his company is training the new AI system to be  “maximally curious" which could steer the AI to naturally align its behaviour with human values and reduce the potential risks associated with its development.

During the course of the talk, Musk explained that his AI system will allow people to get answers to questions which are often touted as controversial. He asserted that there was significant danger in not allowing the AI to say what it really wanted and notified that xAI will allow the AI to say what it believed even if it resulted in some disapproval.

As per media reports, in the past Musk has also shown an inclination in developing an AI chatbot called 'TruthGPT', in stark contrast to OpenAI's popular ChatGPT chatbot. He has said that TruthGPT will be a maximum truth-seeking AI focused on understanding the universe. The billionaire noted that if an AI model cares about understanding the universe, then it is unlikely to eradicate humans because they are an interesting part of the universe.
