According to U.Today, Elon Musk, the serial tech entrepreneur, has once again stirred up the crypto community on the X social media platform. His recent tweet, hinting at the currently popular 'Hawk Tuah girl' meme, has garnered a significant number of responses, despite not containing any remarkable information. Among the respondents was Billy Markus, the creator of Musk's favored Dogecoin, which was launched in December 2013. Musk's tweet, although not bearing any special message, has amassed 431,000 likes, 29,000 reposts, and 28,000 comments, demonstrating his ability to engage with the online community.
In a related event, Musk attended the Cannes Lions conference a week ago, where he participated in a public interview with Mark Read, the head of the large advertising agency WPP Plc. During the discussion, Musk addressed various topics, including his disdain for being financially blackmailed, leading to his preference for X to suffer financial losses from advertisers leaving the platform rather than compromising free speech.
Musk also spoke about the increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools in daily life. He shared a conversation with his eldest son, a college student, who revealed that virtually all his peers are using AI tools to assist with their writing. Musk did not clarify whether he was referring to software that checks for plagiarism or aids in evading plagiarism detection.
Musk's comments on the short-term future of AI suggest that we are less than three years away from AI writing novels at the level of J. K. Rowling, making new discoveries in physics, and generally surpassing human capabilities in various fields.
