Billionaire Elon Musk founded a new company to compete with OpenAI

According to TechUnwrapped , the purpose of X.AI that Elon Musk created is to compete with OpenAI in the field of AI chatbots. Musk also revealed that one of X.AI's priorities is to find investors by selling 100 million shares, although it is still a private, unlisted company - which is Musk's favorite formula for the companies he creates.

Elon Musk Calls on Companies to Stop Developing AI, But He Is Actively Involved in This Field

The emergence of X.AI is not surprising when in recent times, there have been reports that Musk has been trying to attract AI talent from other technology companies, especially OpenAI, although his efforts have not achieved the desired results. A few days ago, there was information that Musk made a huge investment when buying 10,000 A100 Tensor Core GPUs - a real "monster" GPU for AI-related tasks created by Nvidia.

This isn’t the first time Elon Musk has shown an interest in AI. He was an investor in OpenAI, but left the company in 2018 after a power struggle with current OpenAI CEO Sam Atman. The hostility and interest in AI may be the reason Musk wants to create a product that competes with ChatGPT.

At the moment, information about X.AI is still a mystery. Interestingly, the appearance of X.AI comes not long after Elon Musk and many other famous figures signed a letter calling on companies in the AI field to "slow down and stop all AI development for 6 months" to wait for the necessary regulations. This makes many people question Musk's "hypocrisy" in his call, where he simply wants to buy time to have a better chance of competing.
