Regulate all companies developing AI, including Tesla: Elon Musk

San Francisco: Elon Musk has called for regulating all companies, including Tesla, which is working in the field of developing advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Responding to an article about independent research lab OpenAI by MIT Technology Review, Musk tweeted: “OpenAI should be more open in my opinion. All orgs developing advanced AI should be regulated, including Tesla.”

According to the report on Tuesday, OpenAI which was co-founded by Musk has shifted from its mission of developing AI safely into becoming a company that is obsessed with image and driven to raise more money. Musk, who is a staunch critic of AI, stepped down from OpenAI’s board in 2018. San Francisco-based OpenAI — now in the lap of Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella — is aiming to extend the benefits of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) to humanity.

For OpenAI, a safe and beneficial AGI means highly autonomous systems that outperform humans at most economically valuable work which is the next step for AI with “widely distributed economic benefits”. The start-up with 100 people on board is building free software for training, benchmarking and experimenting with AI. Nadella who sees a greater role of AI for humanity will invest $1 billion in the next few years in OpenAI to support it build “democratized AGI” models. (IANS)
