Elon Musk has launched a new artificial intelligence (AI) company called xAI, which aims to explore the true nature of the universe. The company, led by Musk himself, will collaborate with Twitter’s parent company, X, as well as Tesla and other companies to advance their mission.

Musk’s previous involvement with OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, soured when he criticized the implementation of safeguards to prevent biased or sexist responses from the AI. In an interview earlier this year, Musk hinted at his plans for a new AI venture called TruthGPT, emphasizing its focus on seeking maximum truth and understanding.
Concerned about the potential destructive power of AI, Musk had previously called for a pause in the uncontrolled development of AI technology. While specific details about xAI’s mission remain limited, the company is actively recruiting staff.
Musk’s latest endeavour comes at a challenging time as his acquisition, Twitter, faces an uncertain future with the launch of a competing app by Meta and reports of declining usage. Despite these challenges, Musk continues to lead multiple other companies, including Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink, and The Boring Company.
