The co-founder of the popular memecoin Dogecoin (DOGE) has enthusiasm for billionaire Elon Musk’s new artificial intelligence (AI) project.
Earlier this week, Musk launched his artificial intelligence startup project, xAI, as a means of competing with chatbot ChatGPT, a prominent AI tool.
According to Musk, who co-founded OpenAI in 2015, the firm that created ChatGPT, the purpose of xAI is to “understand reality.”
Responding to Musk, DOGE co-founder Billy Markus, also known as Shibetoshi Nakamoto on Twitter, said that the xAI project seems promising.
“This is gonna be really interesting, especially with it being trained on Twitter. I hope I can put it on ‘internet keyboard warrior’ mode and have pointless arguments with it.”
According to a Reuters report, Musk further elaborated his vision of the project in a Twitter Spaces event on Wednesday morning, saying that instead of overtly programming morality into the artificial intelligence, he plans to make it “maximally curious” as a means of keeping it safe.
“If it tried to understand the true nature of the universe, that’s actually the best thing that I can come up with from an AI safety standpoint. I think it is going to be pro-humanity from the standpoint that humanity is just much more interesting than not-humanity.”
Previously, Musk had warned that AI could one day cause “civilizational destruction,” according to the report.
