Elon Musk's artificial intelligence business xAI will release its first AI model to a small group of people, the billionaire and Tesla CEO announced. This comes about a year after OpenAI's ChatGPT captured the attention of businesses and consumers worldwide, resulting in a rise in the deployment of generative AI technologies. Musk co-founded OpenAI, the firm powering ChatGPT, in 2015, but left the company's board of directors in 2018.
 
"In some important respects, it (xAI's new model) is the best that currently exists," he said.
 
The billionaire who has been critical of Big Tech's AI efforts and censorship said earlier this year that he would launch a maximum truth-seeking AI that tries to understand the nature of the universe to rival Google's Bard and Microsoft's Bing AI. The team behind xAI, which launched in July this year, comes from Google's DeepMind, the Windows parent, and other top AI research firms, as per reuters. 
 
Though Musk's X, the social media corporation previously known as Twitter, and xAI are independent entities, they collaborate closely. XAI also collaborates with Tesla and other businesses. Oracle co-founder and self-described close friend of Musk, Larry Ellison, said in September that xAI had inked a deal to train its AI model on Oracle's cloud.
 
X.AI Corp, known as xAI, is an American firm that specializes in artificial intelligence. Elon Musk created it on March 9, 2023, in Nevada. As of July 2023, the company's website said, "The goal of xAI is to understand the true nature of the universe."
