Elon Musk is said to be moving forward with an artificial-intelligence project within Twitter, after recently purchasing roughly 10,000 graphics processing units for the platform, per BI.
Recently, Elon Musk and others call for a pause in AI research.
They said: AI systems with human-competitive intelligence can pose profound risks to society and humanity.
"...recent months have seen AI labs locked in an out-of-control race to develop and deploy ever more powerful digital minds that no one – not even their creators – can understand, predict, or reliably control."

"This pause should be public and verifiable, and include all key actors. If such a pause cannot be enacted quickly, governments should step in and institute a moratorium."
