The mega-millionaire businessman Elon Musk spoke out again about the dangers of Artificial intelligence and maintained that its rapid advance could end in the “destruction of civilization”. Two weeks ago, she had claimed along with others experts that the investigations be halted for six months. However, it was learned that he is working on a new project to compete with the ChatGPT 4.
“Artificial Intelligence is more dangerous than bad aircraft production design or bad car production,” compared the owner of Twitter, drawing a parallel with his company. Space X, dedicated to launching prototypes into space. And he delved: “In the sense that it has the potential, however small the probability, but it is not trivial, it has the potential to destroy civilization. Anyone who thinks their risk is 0% is an idiot.”
The statements were made known through a fragment of an interview with the North American channel Fox News and they are in line with the request that Musk and other specialists made days ago, where they asked to stop the investigations of the AI and specifically of ChatGPT 4.

“In recent months we have seen how AI labs have launched into a wild race to develop and deploy increasingly powerful digital brains that no one, not even their creators, can reliably understand, predict or control,” the experts said in a fragment of the request.
In his dialogue with Fox, Musk proposed “have some form of regulatory authorityor something like that, that oversees the development of AI and ensures that it operates in the public interest.”

In the past, the aerospace entrepreneur was part of OpenIA and even sat on the executive board as co-chair, but in 2018 the partnership became limited and he left his chair.
If this leak made known by the Times materializes, Musk would be left in an ambiguous position: on the one hand, concerned about the advancement of AI, but on the other, putting together work teams to develop it quickly. What the businessman cannot do is stay out of any controversy.
