Thanks CTOnews.com netizen four salmon, no one knows the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, July 13 / PRNewswire-FirstCall-Asianet /-- Elon Musk today announced the formation of artificial intelligence startup xAI, a team of engineers from former US technology giants hoping to create an alternative to ChatGPT, the OpenAI chat robot.

Musk said the company aims to "understand the true nature of the universe". In addition, he tweeted the implications of xAI's founding date.

He shared a screenshot of the introduction page of xAI's official website, marking the company's founding date "July 12, 2023" and adding a line next to it: "7: 12: 23: 42.

He believes that 42 is the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe and all things, "as my idol Douglas Adams said."

CTOnews.com Note: Douglas Adams is the author of the science fiction Guide to the Galaxy, the book that most influenced Musk as a teenager. Douglas believes that 42 represents the ultimate secret of the universe, life and everything.

In fact, Musk has a soft spot for the number "42". For example, the previously revealed secret plan is called "Project 42", Tesla entered China when he was 42, and the Starship system will have a total of 42 engines, and so on.

Although xAI Positioning is an artificial intelligence company, Mr Musk has mentioned on several occasions that the development of artificial intelligence (AI) should be suspended and that the area needs regulation.

The xAI team includes Igor Babuschkin, a former DeepMind engineer, and Tony Wu, a former Google employee, according to the website.

In addition, xAI also hired Christian Szegedy, a former research scientist at Google, and Greg Yang, a former Microsoft employee.
