Elon Musk: The AI I’ve Been Funding Could Cause “Civilization Destruction”
Elon Musk has been one of the biggest funders of the AI technology that is currently taking the world by storm. Musk co-founded OpenAI, which is the AI startup behind ChatGPT. He’s also recently begun pouring money into his own large language model, stupidly dubbed “TruthGPT.” However, at the same time that he’s been paying the bills for droves of AI engineers, he’s also apparently been harboring some concerns about what they’re creating. During a recent interview with Fox News goon Tucker Carlson, Musk said the following:
“AI is more dangerous than, say, mismanaged aircraft design or production maintenance or bad car production, in the sense that it is, it has the potential — however small one may regard that probability, but it is non-trivial — it has the potential of civilization destruction…”
Nice! It’s good to know that with the stakes so high we have Elon to shepherd us through these dangerous waters. It’s not like he’s ever made a bad business decision before or anything…
