Elon Musk has criticized traditional AI systems and introduced a new, transparent AI system called “TruthGPT”. His vision for this model was revealed during an interview on Fox News with Tucker Carlson. Musk believes that a system which actually cares about understanding the universe would pose less of a threat to humanity.
