Elon Musk has been testing the limits of his political influence ever since Trump was elected, but he may stop short of using the full force of the White House.
Sam Altman, CEO of San Francisco's OpenAI, spoke with Bloomberg Businessweek about Elon Musk, who leads Tesla, SpaceX and competitor xAI.
Encode, a nonprofit AI safety org, has requested permission to file an amicus brief in support of Elon Musk's injunction to halt OpenAI's transition to a for-profit.
Geoffrey Hinton is known for his work developing artificial neural networks, the foundation for AI, and won the 2024 Nobel Prize in physics in October.
American entrepreneur Elon Musk called Sam Altman's gen-AI firm 'profit-maximizer' amid the firm's for-profit switch motives.
Encode, a nonprofit organization that co-sponsored California’s failed SB 1047 AI safety legislation, is joining forces with Elon Musk to oppose OpenAI’s plan to repivot as a fully for-profit company.
"We have a nonprofit and a for-profit today, and we will continue to have both, with the for-profit’s success enabling the nonprofit to be well funded, better sustained, and in a stronger position for the mission," OpenAI said.
Nevertheless, the deals — and xAI’s developer and consumer-facing products — have driven xAI’s revenue to around $100 million a year. For comparison, Anthropic is reportedly on pace to generate $1 billion in revenue this year, and OpenAI is targeting $4 billion by the end of 2024.
Sam Altman's AGI predictions may be wrong, but they highlight the tech giants' race for better data and user access to shape the future of the workforce.
There are two disparate views: artificial intelligence will either outperform humans really soon, or in some respects its improvements and results have plateaued. Nonetheless, it’s here to stay.
