TruthGPT: Everything to know about Elon Musk’s ChatGPT alternative
Elon Musk has his own way of doing things. After signing an open letter that demands the pause of large-scale AI projects citing them as threat to humanity, Musk has now announced his own version of ChatGPT alternative called TruthGPT.
During an interview with Fox News’s Tucker Carlson, Musk talked about his vision for TruthGPT adding that his ChatGPT alternative “might be the best path to safety, in the sense that an AI that cares about understanding the universe, it is unlikely to annihilate humans because we are an interesting part of the universe.”
