On Tuesday, May 24th, billionaire Elon Musk said at the London Summit of the Wall Street Journal CEO Committee that he believes it is necessary to establish artificial intelligence companies that can compete with Google and Microsoft, which may involve different parts of their business empire, including Twitter.

At the opening ceremony of the London Summit, Musk stated that his efforts to acquire Twitter for $44 billion last year were bearing fruit. He said that Twitter is not yet very profitable, but it may achieve positive cash flow growth as soon as next month. Since Musk privatized it, Twitter has no longer publicly reported its financial performance and has not been profitable since 2019.

Musk stated that Twitter may be an important component of his creation of artificial intelligence business. Tesla has always been using artificial intelligence to improve its advanced driver assisted driving capabilities. Musk said that Twitter and Tesla can become partners of an artificial intelligence company, just like Microsoft and OpenAI. Previously, Musk had already created an artificial intelligence company called X.AI.

Musk said, "I think there should be a third horse in the artificial intelligence competition

As the boss of Twitter and Tesla, Musk has long been trying to guide the development direction of artificial intelligence. He expressed concern about the rapid progress made in the field of artificial intelligence and called for government regulation. The possibility of artificial intelligence destroying humanity is very small, but it is by no means impossible, "Musk said on Tuesday. (Small)
