Elon Musk is no stranger to changing the game with his tweets. From boosting the value of Dogecoin to influencing the price of Bitcoin(I even bought some), his words have a significant impact on the market. However, his tweets go beyond just finance; they also influence the development of technology, particularly in the field of artificial intelligence (AI).
Musk has been an outspoken critic of traditional AI development, arguing that it lacks ethical considerations and safeguards against potential abuses. He has criticised companies like Google and Microsoft for their closed-source AI systems, which he believes prioritise profit over responsible development.
In response, Musk co-founded OpenAI, a research organisation dedicated to developing AI in an ethical and transparent way. However, he later resigned from the board, citing concerns over the company’s direction and potential conflicts of interest.

More recently, Musk has been tweeting about a new project called Based AI. It’s rumored to be a chatbot that can rival OpenAI’s GPT-3, but without the safeguards that prevent it from producing text that might offend specific groups of users. Based AI is supposed to be more free and expressive than “woke” AI, which is seen as too cautious and biased.
Musk’s advocacy for Based AI poses a direct challenge to companies like Google and Microsoft. Google’s CEO, Sundar Pichai, recently announced the company’s new AI principles, which aim to promote transparency, accountability, and safety in AI systems. Microsoft’s CEO, Satya Nadella, announced that the company is investing $20 billion in AI research and development over the next five years.

However, Musk remains skeptical of these efforts, arguing that the traditional approach to AI development is fundamentally flawed. His involvement in the AI revolution has sparked an important conversation about the future of AI and its impact on society.
As AI becomes more pervasive in our daily lives, it’s crucial to consider the ethical implications of its development and use. Musk’s challenges to traditional AI development and advocacy for Based AI are pushing the industry to consider these issues seriously.
