“You’ll find that other AIs are quite racist against white people.”
Billionaire tech entrepreneur Elon Musk has slammed ChatGPT over a claim that a Nigerian man’s life is 20 times more valuable than a white German man’s life. Mr Musk made the remark during an appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast.
“You’ll find that other AIs are quite racist against white people,” Mr Musk said. “The only AI that actually weighed human lives equally was Grok, and I believe ChatGPT weighed… a white guy from Germany is 20 times less valuable than a black guy from Nigeria.”
He added, “That’s a pretty big difference. [But] Grok… weighs lives equally.”
Meanwhile, reports said investors led by Mr Musk submitted a $97.4 billion offer to take over OpenAI, ChatGPT’s creator. OpenAI chief Sam Altman dismissed the bid, posting on X, “No thanks,” and joking that OpenAI could buy Twitter for $9.74 billion. Musk, a former OpenAI co-founder, is already suing the firm over its profit-driven restructuring.
