OpenAI Building “X-Like” Social Network After Grok “Made Everyone Jealous”<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

With OpenAI continues to battle lawsuits from news outlets<\/a> and authors<\/a> over materials used to train ChatGPT, the company has decided to build its own X-like social network <\/strong>so, we presume, they can scrape the opinions of their own users to train their models – something Elon Musk’s Grok has been doing with posts on the X platform.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

According to The Verge<\/em><\/a>, the project is still in early stages – but the company does reportedly have a prototype focused on ChatGPT’s image generation that has a social feed<\/strong>. It’s unknown whether the plan is to release the social network as a separate app vs. integrating it into ChatGPT – which was the most downloaded<\/a> app worldwide last month. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has been asking for feedback from outsiders.<\/p>\n

The plan would put OpenAI in direct competition with both Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg;<\/p>\n

Launching a social network in or around ChatGPT would likely increase Altman\u2019s already-bitter rivalry with Elon Musk.<\/strong> In February, after Musk made an unsolicited offer to purchase<\/a> OpenAI for $97.4 billion, Altman responded<\/a>: \u201cno thank you but we will buy twitter for $9.74 billion if you want.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Entering the social media market also puts OpenAI on more of a collision course with Meta, <\/strong>which we\u2019re told is planning to add a social feed to its coming standalone app for its AI assistant. When reports of Meta building a rival to the ChatGPT app first surfaced a couple of months ago, Altman shot back on X<\/a> again by saying, \u201cok fine maybe we\u2019ll do a social app.\u201d <\/strong>-The Verge<\/em><\/p>\n

One idea behind the OpenAI plan would be to use AI to help people better share content.<\/p>\n

“The Grok integration with X has made everyone jealous,<\/strong>” said an anonymous employee of another big AI lab. “Especially how people create viral tweets by getting it to say something stupid.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
