Elon Musk announced Monday that his artificial intelligence startup xAI will make its chatbot, Grok, open-source this week while taking another swing at OpenAI amid his legal battle with the ChatGPT creator. The tech billionaire and Tesla CEO made the announcement on his social media platform, X, and after a follower replied that OpenAI should do the same, Musk wrote, "OpenAI is a lie.
Musk's move to make Gronk open-source could give the public free access to experiment with the code behind the technology and aligns xAI with firms such as Meta and France's Mistral, both of which have open-source AI models. Google has also released an AI model called Gemma that outside developers can potentially fashion according to their needs.
While open-sourcing technology can help speed up innovations, some experts have warned that open-source AI models could be used by terrorists to create chemical weapons or even develop a conscious super-intelligence beyond human control. Musk said at Britain's AI Safety Summit last year that he wanted to establish a "third-party referee" that could oversee firms developing AI and sound the alarm if they have concerns.
