Elon Musk

After developing ChatGPT, the blockbuster Artificial Intelligence (AI) that can write prose, poetry and even computer code, OpenAI founder Elon Musk is reportedly assembling a team to develop another AI that will rival the former. The Information reported on Monday (February 27) that Musk has approached AI researchers in recent weeks to form a new research lab for the development of the new AI.

Musk has reportedly recruited Igor Babuschkin. He is a researcher who recently left Alphabet's DeepMind AI unit.

After ChatGPT became a talking point in the Silicon Valley and across the world, rival companies like Alphabet and Microsoft tried to enter the race with their own AIs. But these versions have so far not been able to compete with ChatGPT which has had almost flawless run till now.
