The company procured thousands of GPUs and has hired AI researchers in the recent past.
The mystery of what Elon Musk plans to do with Twitter may have just begun to unravel. Even as Musk tries to hide it all behind the veil of X, an Insider.
Both SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy and Starship could take to the skies next week in an action-packed few days for Elon Musk’s space firm.
SpaceX showed off its Falcon Heavy rocket ahead of its next launch, scheduled for April 18.

The private space firm, which is also gearing up for the first orbital launch of its massive Starship rocket, will launch a ViaSat-3 broadband communications satellite to orbit aboard Falcon Heavy next week. The mission will take off from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center, Florida.
Elon Musk has been warning of the dangers of artificial intelligence for as long he can remember and now, it looks like his worst fears might be coming true…
We may build incredible AI. But can we contain our cruelty? Oxford professor Nick Bostrom explains.

Nick Bostrom, a professor at Oxford University and director of the Future of Humanity Institute, discusses the development of machine superintelligence and its potential impact on humanity. Bostrom believes that in this century, we will create the first general intelligence that will be smarter than humans. He sees this as the most important thing humanity will ever do, but it also comes with an enormous responsibility.
Bostrom notes that there are existential risks associated with the transition to the machine intelligence era, such as the possibility of an underlying superintelligence that overrides human civilization with its own value structures. In addition, there is the question of how to ensure that conscious digital minds are treated well. However, if we succeed in ensuring the well-being of artificial intelligence, we could have vastly better tools for dealing with everything from diseases to poverty.
Ultimately, Bostrom believes that the development of machine superintelligence is crucial for a truly great future.
More than 60 scientists work to convert research into practical applications too.
The government of China has provided funding to set up a leading laboratory to study brain-machine interfaces, much like Elon Musk’s Neuralink has been working on. The recently inaugurated Sixth Haihe Laboratory in the northeast port city of Tianjin to “drive innovation and create new areas for economic growth”, the South China Morning Post.
Chinese lab to work on brain-machine interfaces
Apart from Neuralink, research institutes in the U.S., such as the University of California, Berkeley, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, have led the development of technology in brain-machine interface for many years.
As it has done, with technologies such as hypersonic missiles, China is looking to break U.S. dominance by building a solid research foundation for developing intellectual capability in the area of brain-machine interface as well.

BRAD SMITH: Tesla CEO Elon Musk reveals the third part of the EV maker’s master plan is to lead the global effort to convert the world to sustainable energy here. And as part of that, according to Musk, Tesla’s projects will take $10 trillion in investments.
Schmidt thinks that if the AI sector doesn’t create protections, politicians will have to step in.
Eric Schmidt, the former CEO of Google, has spoken out against the six-month ban on AI development that some tech celebrities and business executives demanded earlier.
“I’m not in favor of a six-month pause, because it will simply benefit China,” said Schmidt, Google’s first CEO.

A halt supported by tech leaders like Elon Musk and Steve Wozniak, would “simply benefit China,” the former Google CEO told the Australian Financial Review on Thursday.
The last few weeks have been abuzz with news and fears (well, largely fears) about the impact chatGPT and other generative technologies might have on the workplace. Goldman Sachs predicted 300 million jobs would be lost, while the likes of Steve Wozniak and Elon Musk asked for AI development to be paused (although pointedly not the development of autonomous driving).
Indeed, OpenAI chief Sam Altman recently declared that he was “a little bit scared”, with the sentiment shared by OpenAI’s chief scientist Ilya Sutskever, who recently said that “at some point it will be quite easy, if one wanted, to cause a great deal of harm”.
As fears mount about the jobs supposedly at risk from generative AI technologies like chatGPT, are these fears likely to prevent people from taking steps to adapt?

SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has confirmed that the Starship is fully stacked and ready to launch on its maiden orbital flight.
Starship, comprising the Starship upper stage and Super Heavy first stage, will become the most powerful rocket ever to fly when it lifts off from SpaceX’s Starbase facility in Boca Chica, Texas, possibly in the coming days.
