Last year, during an interview with Tucker Carlson, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, Elon Musk stated that he thinks that, certainly by the end of 2025, artificial intelligence (AI) will be able to make short movies or short shows for 15 minutes at a crazy speed.
He further added that with each passing month, AI power is increasing as new computer systems are added. And its power is increasing by 500% every year. AI-powered software is also getting smarter.
Musk stated that with the passing of days, AI is becoming smarter and cleverer as it’s growing in both qualitative and quantitative ways.
“I think next year you’ll be able to ask AI, certainly by the end of 2025, to make a short movie about something.”
Musk expressed his concern about AI safety; he said that, according to him, AI safety is most important. He has also emphasized truth-seeking AI. He said that AI should provide correct information and display the truth to people.
He went on to explain why he introduced XAI (Grok). He said that, “The most important thing is to have a maximally truth-seeking AI. That’s why I started XAI.” He stated that the goal of Grok AI is to provide correct information to its users.
With the increasing controversies with OpenAI, he also stated that Sam Altman is only concerned about maximizing profit. He said that, “I don’t understand how you go from being an open-source nonprofit to a closed-source for maximum profit organization. I’m missing – Well, but Sam Altman got rich, though, didn’t he? Well, at various points, he’s claimed not to be getting rich. But he’s claimed many false things.”
He also stated that there should be proper regulations for AI, just like every sports game has referees to make sure that the rules are followed for a better game, and we have cops to obey the rules; AI should also have strict regulations for everyone to follow.
Apart from AI in the interview, Musk also discussed on topics like Donald Trump, victims of Hurricane Helene, what if Trump loses, the Epstein and Diddy client list, vaccines, decriminalizing crime, Gavin Newsom, Europe’s declining birthrate, the need for religion, anti-human messaging, and Musk’s role in a Trump administration.
At last, he concluded that if used appropriately, AI can be smarter than the smartest human.
