Musk’s participation in the Russian AI conference may be related to the recent announcement of his Grok neural network from xAI, which will become a competitor to ChatGPT. The developers describe the neural network as follows:
“Grok is an AI modelled after The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, so intended to answer almost anything and, far harder, even suggest what questions to ask! Grok is designed to answer questions with a bit of wit and has a rebellious streak, so please don’t use it if you hate humour!”
They clarify that the main advantage of Grok is the ability to answer almost any question thanks to online access to the X social media big data. The neural network is planned to be integrated into the social network X in the near future.
According to our sources, the billionaire and the owner of Tesla and SpaceX Elon Musk will be a speaker at the upcoming international conference on artificial intelligence in Russia, which is going to be held in the near future — AI Journey 2023. Researchers from India, China and other countries are also planning to speak at the conference.
I previously wrote about Elon Musk’s Grok AI project, where we looked at its pros and cons, as well as its impact on the world of artificial intelligence and technology.
