Tesla’s president declared that the new version of Grok, the generative artificial intelligence chatbot his startup is working on, will be “better” than OpenAi’s GPT-4. In addition, he gave his opinion on Chinese electric cars.
The CEO of Tesla, Elon Musk, predicted on Monday that the development of a AI technology that surpasses the most intelligent human being It will probably be completed next year or in 2026.
In a wide-ranging interview about social network X spaces that suffered multiple technological failures, Musk also told the CEO of the Norwegian wealth fund, Nicolai Tangenthat AI was limited by the availability of electricity and that the next version of Grokthe AI chatbot from his startup xAI, should be ready in May.
The new artificial intelligence that surpasses the human being
“If you define AGI (artificial general intelligence) as smarter than the smartest human being, I think that’s probably going to be next year, two years from now,” Musk said when asked about the timeline for AGI development.

The billionaire, who also co-founded OpenAI, said that lack of chips advanced was hindering the training of the Grok version 2 model. Musk founded xAI last year to challenge OpenAIwhich he sued for abandoning its original mission of developing AI for the benefit of humanity and non-profit. OpenAI denies the allegations.
The technology used by the Grok 2 model
Musk said that training the model Grok 2 required around 20,000 Nvidia H100 GPU units and added that the Grok 3 model and later technologies will require 100,000 Nvidia H100 chips.
However, he stated that although the chip shortage was a major limitation for the development of AI so far, the electricity supply will be crucial in the next two years.
Speaking of electric vehicles, Musk reiterated that Chinese automakers are “the most competitive in the world” and pose “the most complex challenges” for Tesla.
