The Tesla and Twitter mogul said that his falling out with Page, who co-founded Google alongside Sergey Brin, led him to help start OpenAI.
Elon Musk claimed Google is poised to dominate artificial intelligence — and revealed that co-founder Larry Page is no longer a “close friend” after the search engine’s billionaire co-founder shrugged off threats that AI poses to humanity., the CEO of Tesla and Twitter said Google has essentially cornered the market since it has “about three-quarters of all the AI talent in the world” in addition to “a tremendous amount of money and more computers than anyone else.
Musk said his estrangement from Page, who co-founded Google alongside Sergey Brin, led him to help start OpenAI, the Silicon Valley unicorn which recently rolled out the AI-powered bot ChatGPT. “The reason Open AI exists at all is that Larry Page and I used to be close friends and I would stay at his house in Palo Alto and I would talk to him late in the night about AI safety,” Musk said. “At least my perception was that Larry was not taking AI safety seriously enough.”
“So that’s why the ‘open’ in OpenAI refers to open source, transparency so people know what’s going on.”
