Elon Musk is planning to compete in the AI tech race with his new startup, recruiting experts and acquiring over 10,000 GPUs. With investors from Tesla and SpaceX already showing interest, the project could have groundbreaking outcomes. OpenAI received a $10 billion investment from Microsoft and AI developers are pushing their boundaries. Musk may be the perfect genius to make his new AI project a success!
OpenAI's AI chatbot ChatGPT is pushing the boundaries of technology while Microsoft and Google use it in their own chatbots. Elon Musk, Steve Wozniak and other academics wrote an open letter recently asking for AI research pause which resulted in over 25,000 people signing it. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman discussed the letter at an MIT event and suggested guidelines and security measures for independent researchers while developing AI. OpenAI is at the forefront of conversation surrounding the ethical development of AI.
Discover how AI-driven chat applications like ChatGPT can have environmental impacts with a study by the University of California and University of Texas, Arlington. They estimated that Microsoft's GPT-3 and GPT-4 models used 185,000 gallons of fresh water, or equal to 370 BMWs or 320 Tesla vehicles. ChatGPT consumes 500ml per 20 to 50 queries, making a large total water footprint with its user base. Rising research and understanding of the implications of AI technology can bring about improved practices.
OpenAI, a San Francisco-based artificial intelligence research lab, is battling to make AI for the Common Good. Led by CEO Sam Altman and CTO Greg Brockman, the non-profit has initiated debates worldwide, calling for regulators and industry players to ensure the safety of consumers. With OpenAI's moves to release powerful GPT-4 models, the Center for AI and Digital Policy has taken action, filing a complaint to the FTC to regulate the industry.
Google has unveiled initiatives to support the vulnerability management ecosystem, protect users from cyber risks, and provide resources to independent security researchers. These include the Hacking Policy Council, Security Research Legal Defense Fund, and a commitment to greater transparency on exploitation and patch adoption. Protect yourself and stay secure online with the help of Google!
