Artificial Intelligence

Elon Musk

Alex Kantrowitz, an American journalist and founder of Big Technology claimed that X owner Eon Musk emailed him about plans to integrate Artificial Intelligence (AI) news on the social media platform. He claims Elon Musk plans to achieve this integration of AI breaking news and commentary with the help of <a href="https://coingape.com/elon-musk-unveils-grok-ai-1-5-with-advanced-image-skills/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Grok, X’s AI chatbot</a>.

The journalist mentioned that he tried using <a href="https://coingape.com/how-elon-musks-grok-ai-can-aid-crypto-research/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Grok</a> but discovered that it couldn’t link to a Time story it summarized. He also tried clicking into the article to read more but couldn’t and this made him reach out to Musk. In response, Musk informed Kantrowitz of an upcoming advanced iteration that he is working on.
The plan is to build a real-time synthesizer of breaking news and social commentary around big stories as well as social media reactions. Thereafter, the compilations will be printed live with an option to go deeper via chat.
“As more information becomes available, the news summary will update to include that information,” Musk reportedly said to Kantrowitz. “The goal is simple: to provide maximally accurate and timely information, citing the most significant sources.”

 New: <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@elonmusk</a> emailed me about his plan for AI news on X.
 The idea is to use AI to blend breaking news and commentary, building real-time summaries of events. Then you can go deeper via chat on Grok.
 Here's the full story! I'll be talking more about this on Big Technology…

The American journalist does not think that this will be an easy task but at the same time, he sees the bot becoming a novel news product due to its access to the “X firehose”. As part of its present functionalities, Grok AI displays a running list of headlines and incorporates social reactions into its summaries.

On one hand, Kantrowitz still believes that Grok can be improved upon, with a focus on challenges like citation and hallucination. Based on the plan Elon Musk is mulling, Grok will be different from all other existing AI news summarizers, and probably more controversial.
In the long run, the invention will aim to ensure the satisfaction of users, publishers, and the platform together.
Musk also intends to make conversation on X the core of Grok’s summaries. This approach seems like the right fit considering it could give X some distance from the publisher lawsuits hitting several AI companies. <a href="https://coingape.com/ai-news-eight-newspapers-file-copyright-lawsuit-against-openai-microsoft/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">OpenAI and Microsoft were recently indicted</a> by eight newspapers for copyright infringement. This is apart from the lawsuit levied on both firms <a href="https://coingape.com/new-york-times-times-files-lawsuit-against-openai-microsoft/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">by the New York Times.</a>
In the meantime, no lead was given about when this integration would happen or if it would eventually be done.
