Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX, Tesla, and Twitter, has reportedly purchased nearly 10,000 graphics processing units (GPUs) for an artificial intelligence (AI) project at Twitter, according to anonymous sources familiar with the company. The sources said the project is in its early stages and works with a large language model (LLM), but the definite role of generative AI at Twitter is still not totally clear. Musk has previously expressed concerns about the risks of AI and recently signed an open letter with thousands of other researchers in the tech space to temporarily halt the development of AI due to risk for humanity.
