Ego, Fear and Money: How the A.I. Fuse Was Lit

Elon Musk celebrated his 44th birthday in July 2015 at a three-day party thrown by his wife at a California wine country resort dotted with cabins…. A.I. was the big topic of conversation when Mr. Musk and Mr. Page sat down near a firepit beside a swimming pool after dinner the first night. The two billionaires had been friends for more than a decade…. But the tone that clear night soon turned contentious as the two debated whether artificial intelligence would ultimately elevate humanity or destroy it.

But eight years later, the argument between the two men seems prescient. That debate has pitted some of the world’s richest men against one another: Mr. Musk, Mr. Page, Mark Zuckerberg of Meta, the tech investor Peter Thiel, Satya Nadella of Microsoft and Sam Altman of OpenAI. All have fought for a piece of the business — which one day could be worth trillions of dollars — and the power to shape it.

At the heart of this competition is a brain-stretching paradox. The people who say they are most worried about A.I. are among the most determined to create it and enjoy its riches. They have justified their ambition with their strong belief that they alone can keep A.I. from endangering Earth.

Mr. Musk and Mr. Page stopped speaking soon after the party that summer. A few weeks later, Mr. Musk dined with Mr. Altman…. That dinner led to the creation of a start-up called OpenAI later in the year. Backed by hundreds of millions of dollars from Mr. Musk and other funders, the lab promised to protect the world from Mr. Page’s vision.

Thanks to its ChatGPT chatbot, OpenAI has fundamentally changed the technology industry….

Have a good idea for an AI startup? OpenAI wants to give you $1 million

ChatGPT-maker OpenAI is opening the door to prospective startup founders to apply to receive a $1 million funding boost and exclusive informational and educational resources from its Startup Fund, in exchange for participating in a maximum six-hour-per-week, six-week-long program. Even those without any prior AI experience or who don’t even use OpenAI products and services can apply.

While the commitment is set at 4-6 hours per week, it can be done remotely, with only the first and last weeks of the program structured as in-person events in San Francisco, with travel costs covered by OpenAI.

Even if you haven’t written a line of code or raised a single dollar and your idea is still largely in your head, OpenAI wants to hear from you, according to its bare-bones online application form.

Applicants just need to provide their name, a one-line description of their company, links to social profiles of founder applicants, and a link to a 30-second long video pitching the idea….
