Dogcoin Co-Founder Shows Excitement for Elon Musk’s New AI Venture, xAI, as Dogecoin’s Popularity Continues to Rise.
In a recent development, the co-founder of the well-known memecoin, Dogecoin (DOGE), has expressed his enthusiasm for billionaire Elon Musk’s latest artificial intelligence (AI) endeavor.
This week, Musk made headlines by launching his groundbreaking AI startup project, xAI, with the intention of competing against ChatGPT, a prominent AI tool widely used for chatbot capabilities.
Musk, who co-founded OpenAI back in 2015, the company behind ChatGPT, stated that the main objective of xAI is to gain a deeper understanding of reality.
In response to Musk’s ambitious project, DOGE co-founder Billy Markus, also known as Shibetoshi Nakamoto on Twitter, expressed his optimism, recognizing the potential in the xAI initiative.
“I find this truly fascinating, particularly with its training on Twitter. I wonder if I can activate its ‘internet keyboard warrior’ mode and engage in pointless arguments,” Markus shared.
During a Twitter Spaces event on Wednesday morning, Musk expanded on his vision for the project. He emphasized that instead of explicitly programming morality into the AI, he aims to foster extreme curiosity to ensure its safety.
From an AI safety perspective, Musk believes that encouraging the AI to explore and understand the true nature of the universe is the best approach. He believes that by doing so, the AI will inherently prioritize humanity, considering it more captivating and intriguing than the absence of humanity.
This aligns with Musk’s previous concerns about the potential destructive power of AI, as he has warned about its potential to cause significant harm to civilization.
As Dogecoin continues to gain traction and Elon Musk pushes the boundaries of technological innovation, the intersection of cryptocurrency and AI promises to be an exciting space to watch in the coming years.
