Pavel gave his most extensive interview ever to the French magazine Le Point. For the first time, he spoke openly about topics like his arrest in France, accusations, Telegram, Elon Musk, over 100 children via donation, ideology, crypto, censorship, and philosophy.
But the most interesting part is hidden between the lines: AI. As expected, Telegram is moving toward becoming a full-fledged AI infrastructure.
First - a potential collaboration with Grok from xAI:
- Telegram receives funding and possibly a stake in what could become a future competitor to OpenAI
- Grok tests large-scale AI integration in real chats
- Both sides gain practical experience
This isn't just “AI added to a messenger.” It’s a commitment for the future.
Everything is set for the launch of a hypothetical TGAI:
- Custom assistants
- APIs and SDKs for developers inside and outside the messenger
- Contests for creating mods and intelligent agents
- Similar to Mini Apps, only deeper and smarter.
"Nikolai is a genius. Right now, he's working on a scalable blockchain architecture and real AI".
AI isn’t a trendy buzzword - it's the foundation of Telegram’s next step in evolution. And if Nikolai Durov is in charge of that foundation’s architecture, you better believe that it will be scalable and unconventional.
