Elon Musk tweets 'Facebook sucks' at company's Head of AI after criticism
Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk tweeted that "Facebook sucks" after an argument over AI on Twitter. Mr Musk made the comments to the company's head of artificial intelligence Jerome Pesenti after Pesenti criticised Musk's knowledge of artificial intelligence. The comments came after a CNBC report that said multiple anonymous AI researchers said they saw Musk's views on the technology as inappropriate. Musk has previously warned that AI will become as intelligent as humans and could threaten humanity's very existence, saying that "there's a five to 10 percent chance of success [of making AI safe]". An AI executive speaking to CNBC, who asked to remain anonymous because their company may work for one of Musk's businesses, said that "A large proportion of the community think he's a negative distraction."
