ELON Musk is set to introduce a bizarre new AI technology inspired by a popular sci-fi film.
The state of the art ‘robot’ assistant will be called Grōk and it can reportedly answer any question a Tesla driver asks.
It comes after the EV creator rolled out his new AI project called xAI, which is essentially like a chatbot.
Now, that company is partnering with Tesla, to bring drivers the latest tech.
xAI has offered fans a description of Grōk which reads: “Grōk is an AI modeled after the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, so intended to answer almost anything, and far harder, even suggest what questions to ask.
“Grōk is designed to answer questions with a bit of wit and has a rebellious streak, so please don’t use it if you hate humour.”
Elon Musk himself added: “Provided our vehicle AI computer is able to run the model, Tesla will probably have the most amount of the true usable inference compute on Earth.
“Even in a robataxi future, the cars will only be used for 1/3 of hours/week, leaving 2/3 for distributed inference, like SETI.”
At present there is no date set for the introduction of the AI assistant in Teslas.
But there is a startup version being released to some X users.
It is available to those who pay for a premium subscription on the platform.
This comes after Musk himself sat down with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and warned AI robots will soon stalk stalking humans.
Plus, the tech genius claimed AI will eventually mean no one will have to work – unless for “personal satisfaction”.
Meanwhile, ChatGPT CEO warned AI bots could develop “superhuman persuasion skills” that result in “strange outcomes”.
One of the possible AI skills includes being able to persuade people a certain way through facts and data that it collects.
