Musk has previously warned about the risks from AI technology and advocated for governments to regulate it.
However, he has been busy recruiting researchers, aiming to establish a rival effort to OpenAI – the company behind the viral chatbot, ChatGPT.
He recently brought Igor Babuschkin, a scientist from Alphabet-owned AI lab DeepMind, on board to lead his new initiative. Musk has also reportedly attempted to recruit OpenAI employees for this new venture.
Musk co-founded OpenAI eight years ago but left the company in early 2018 after losing a power struggle to its current chief executive, Sam Altman, according to the Journal.

Musk has reportedly voiced concerns that ChatGPT has political biases and expressed his desire to create AI models that are more truth-seeking.
OpenAI made waves earlier this year with the release of GPT-4, an AI model designed to replicate human reading and writing, which surpassed most individuals on standardized tests such as the LSAT.
Musk’s latest endeavor, if successful, will add to the intense competition among tech companies to create advanced AI models.
Previously, Microsoft’s Bing search engine has incorporated AI technology into its latest version, while Google and Amazon, among others, have also announced their own AI initiatives.
