Tesla could have an important role in general artificial intelligence

Elon Musk announces this important step within Tesla and betting on being key in general artificial intelligence

The AI (artificial intelligence) is increasingly present in our day to day, many of the devices that we use daily are equipped with greater or lesser extent of AI, which helps us perform certain tasks.

Tesla is one of the companies in which AI is very present in its "DNA" and the efforts that the company is making in this field are huge with the aim of achieving a technology capable of interpreting each situation and even anticipating whatIt can occur.

Last year, Tesla celebrated the IA Day (Artificial Intelligence Day) where Dojo presented, a supercomputer capable of processing millions of operations per second dismissal manufactured for artificial neuronal networks and artificial intelligence.We also met Tesla Bot, a humanoid robot with AI capable of performing general and repetitive tasks that the human being currently performs.

Tesla currently will boast of having one of the best, not to say the best, team of experts in artificial intelligence and now Elon Musk adds their commitment to involvement in general artificial intelligence (AGI).

What really is general artificial intelligence (AGI)?

The term of AI (artificial intelligence) is currently well known, however AGI (general artificial intelligence) can be completely unknown to most of us.

AGI goes one step further and it is to give the machines human capacities such as being able to reason, think of abstract, formulate and understand knowledge ... in other words, to endow it with the "human powers" that make us unique and different.

Obviously, this step causes great fear, since providing so much "power", but the possibility that it could happen exists.

Elon Musk, through Twitter he has shown Tesla's commitment to AGI and said the following:

"Tesla ai could play a role in AGI, since he trains against the outside world, especially with the arrival of Optimus."

Regarding Optimus, it is the internal name of the Tesla Bot project.

In addition, he said that to avoid problems, they will ensure that the control of the robots is decentralized, that is, that it is not only accessible or available in a single place to act in case of a problem.

“We will do our best.Decentralized control of robots will be fundamental. ”

At the moment, we all hope that at the end of 2022 we can see a prototype of the functional Tesla Bot, as Elon Musk indicated at the time, although we all know how little accurate the CEO of Tesla is to give dates.
