ChatGPT X account replicates Joe Biden’s ‘I’m sick’ post

July 21, 2024 Coin Telegraph

2024 election

The official X account for OpenAI’s ChatGPT used the same “I’m sick” post as United States President Joe Biden did before playfully mocking general intelligence.

The X account for OpenAI’s ChatGPT has light-heartedly replicated a post by United States President Joe Biden, which was commonly interpreted as “I’m sick” in relation to his recent positive COVID-19 diagnosis. Biden, however, used the statement with a different twist to mock billionaire investor Elon Musk.

“I’m sick,” ChatGPT wrote in a July 20 post on X, before similarly playing on the words, by elaborating “of general intelligence not being ubiquitous and too cheap to meter.”

It was only two days prior to Biden making a similar “I’m Sick” post before making a claim that Musk is attempting to “buy the election.” The post comes amid Biden facing calls from some in the Democratic Party to step aside in the 2024 election.

The run on training hardware has put chipmakers at the forefront of the general artificial intelligence boom.

OpenAI is reportedly in talks with Broadcom and other chip makers in what appears to be an urgent effort to expand its artificial intelligence operations.

AI models such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Meta’s Llama are typically trained using massive clusters of graphical processing units (GPUs) or similar computer chips. The most popular hardware, the H100, belongs to Nvidia.

The H100 can cost anywhere from $15,000 to $30,000, depending on the number purchased and current market conditions. It can take tens of thousands of these AI chips to train a single model, with more necessary for larger, more robust systems.

Coin Telegraph

The billionaire industrialist has an estimated net worth of $221 billion and owns Tesla, SpaceX, xAI, and the X social media platform.

On July 16, Elon Musk announced that he would be moving the headquarters of X and SpaceX from California to Texas in response to Governor Gavin Newsom’s passage of Bill AB1955, which he criticized as anti-family. Musk also cited California’s hostile regulatory climate as a reason for the relocation.

According to the billionaire, the X headquarters will move to Austin, Texas, and the SpaceX headquarters will move to Starbase, Texas.

Following his announcement, Musk remarked that he “Had enough of dodging gangs of violent drug addicts just to get in and out of the building” before commenting on the bill, which he says would prevent schools from notifying parents if their child identified as transgender.

Elon Musk did not volunteer his sperm to seed a colony on Mars

July 12, 2024 Coin Telegraph

Coin Telegraph

Billionaire tech CEO Elon Musk is certainly very hands-on with his work, but not to that extent, apparently.

Elon Musk has denied a New York Times report suggesting he had volunteered his sperm to help seed a colony on Mars.

The July 11 report suggested that Musk had quietly directed his team to plan an off-world habitat that could survive Mars’ hostile environment.

One team is looking at plans for “small dome habitats,” including materials that could be used to build them. Another is working on spacesuits that could survive Mars’ freezing extraterrestrial climate — made up of 95% carbon dioxide and only 0.13% oxygen — while a third is researching whether humans could have children there.
