Elon Musk is suing OpenAI, claiming the company has strayed from its mission of developing AGI for humanity’s benefit. The lawsuit, led by Carlos E. Perez, criticizes OpenAI’s shift towards profit, sidelining concerns like ethical AI training and data management.
Grok, Musk’s ChatGPT competitor, uses real-time tweet information. OpenAI and Google are also known for scraping data for AI training. While over 5.3 billion people use the internet, most of the 147 billion terabytes of data produced annually are user-generated, yet users see little benefit and have minimal control.
Blockchain and Web3 technologies could change this by enabling users to regain data control and be compensated for their contributions. Using decentralized systems can reduce costs and improve AI models’ accuracy. This grassroots model promotes ethical AI training, benefiting both large corporations and individual users.
Adopting these new-age models is crucial for the industry’s long-term success, ensuring that ethical considerations align with technological advancements.
