A little over 12 hours ago, Apple announced that OpenAI’s ChatGPT would be integrated into its technology, and Tesla CEO Elon Musk wasted no time battening down the hatches against the rival technology.
Formerly the world’s richest man, Musk is developing his own artificial intelligence models at EV maker Tesla and startup xAI.
xAI has already released a large language model named Grok.
But not only is ChatGPT a competitor to Musk’s own offerings, the entrepreneur also has an acrimonious history with the Sam Altman-led company.
Musk was one of the earliest backers of the AI company and sat as one of its first co-chairs (alongside Altman) when it launched.
