"I'm going to start something which I call 'TruthGPT,' or a maximum truth-seeking AI that tries to understand the nature of the universe," Musk said in an interview with Fox News Channel's Tucker Carlson to be aired later on Monday.

"And I think this 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," he said, according to some excerpts of the interview.

Musk last month registered a firm named X.AI Corp, incorporated in Nevada, according to a state filing. The firm listed Musk as the sole director.

Musk also reiterated his warnings about AI during the interview with Carlson, saying "AI is more dangerous than, say, mismanaged aircraft design or production maintenance or bad car production" according to the excerpts.

"It has the potential of civilizational destruction," he said.

      Anyone who believes that AI has anything resembling intention and sentience needs to have their brain examined

          The brain-computer analogy and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race

              Thousands of years of philosophy owing its existence to consciousness, one of the greatest if not the greatest mystery of all time, and some random singularity dipshits think they’ve cracked the code with their glorified chatbot

              Insert the meme posted a while back about the latest invention becoming the new metaphor for consciousness

                  Consciousness deniers be like: I think consciousness is an illusion

                  :Descartes-Shining:

                  The absolute dumbest clowns to ever walk the Earth, instantly proved wrong by the very existence of… existence. If they’re true believers then surely they won’t mind being guillotined, right? After all, according to them, there’s nothing to be lost

                      Listening to these people is like having random drunks from the caboose barge into the engine room and loudly proclaim that the train doesn’t exist.

                      It’s hard when I want to have an actual conversation about the nature of consciousness and the hows and whys and end up having to deal with these geocentrist morons. And I must apologize to the geocentrists, compared to these I FUCKING LOVE SCIENCE cultists they’re practically Einstein.
