Elon Musk on AI in the Fox News interview recently:

💭 AI is more dangerous than say mismanaged aircraft design or production maintenance or bad car production. It has the potential of civilizational destruction.

💭 I’m going to start something which I call TruthGPT or a maximum truth-seeking AI that tries to understand the nature of the universe. Hopefully there’s more good than harm.

💭 I think that this might be the best path to safety in the sense that an AI that cares about understanding the universe is unlikely to annihilate humans because we are an interesting part of the universe.

💭 Large-language models were being trained to be politically correct or untruthful.

💭 He supports government regulation into AI, even though “it’s not fun to be regulated.” Once AI “may be in control,” it could be too late to place regulations.

💭 A regulatory agency needs to start with a group that initially seeks insight into AI, then solicits opinion from industry, and then has proposed rule-making.
