Shortly after San Francisco–based startup OpenAI introduced ChatGPT last November, it took the world by storm with its ability to turn simple prompts into answers and essays, albeit sometimes factually incorrect ones. Once Microsoft unveiled its new Bing with A.I. tech related to ChatGPT, the bot even developed an unsettling, sometimes “unhinged” personality. Elon Musk, who cofounded OpenAI as an investor in 2015, didn’t seem amused. Earlier this month, Musk criticized OpenAI for going against its initial purpose of being an open-source nonprofit that would “counterweight” Google. And in response to OpenAI founder Sam Altman’s tweet about people’s contradicting uses of A.I. last December, he said that “training A.I. to be woke—in other words, lie—is deadly.”
