He also plans to recruit AI researchers from Alphabet Inc's Google as a part of a venture he incorporated in Nevada. Musk is also calling for a 6-month halt in developing stronger AI than OpenAI's GPT-4 due to the risk of "civilizational destruction". Read more about Musk and his AI safety concerns.

As the European Union debates instituting a ban on certain chatbots, the conversation around AI regulation has taken center stage, fueled by the Italian data protection authority's decision to temporarily ban OpenAI's ChatGPT chatbot.

Questions still abound as to whether ChatGPT falls under this proposed regulation; however, all parties agree that the positive properties of AI in a digital society should be embraced, with an eye towards the need for accountability.

Google is the world's largest search engine with a 92% market share, yet its monopolized nature has greatly delayed the release of technology like ChatGPT. The DOJ argued that having a fair competition could have allowed the release of these chatbot technologies earlier. Google requested a judge to reject two antitrust lawsuits brought by the DOJ and state attorneys general, which allege its preloaded agreements violate antitrust laws. Judge Amit Mehta will soon cast his ruling regarding this case.
