It is worth noting that the founding team of xAI, a newly established artificial intelligence company, is quite luxurious, including Igor Babuschkin, a former star engineer of Google's DeepMind, and five Chinese data scientists, including from Alumni of Tsinghua University.
Most of the founding members have worked for DeepMind, OpenAI, Google Research, Microsoft Research, Twitter (Twitter) and Tesla. Participating projects include DeepMind's AlphaCode and OpenAI's GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 chatbots.
The five OpenAI Chinese scientists are Wu Yuhuai, Yang Ge, Zhang Guodong, Dai Zihang and Jimmy Ba. Yang Ge is the co-founder of xAI. He used to work at Microsoft Research and is now developing the theory of Tensor Programs and the practice of expanding neural networks. Dai Zihang is a former Google Brain researcher and an intern at Baidu's US branch.
Young said xAI will delve into the "mathematics of deep learning," an aspect of artificial intelligence, and develop a "theory of everything" for large neural networks, pushing artificial intelligence to new heights.
China has a very large number of top mathematical scientists. Wu Yuhuai uses mathematics as the starting point for research and reasoning, with the goal of creating an AI "mathematician".
Musk said he and his team plan to share more information during a live chat at Twitter Spaces on July 14.
