Elon Musk sues OpenAI for abandoning its non-profit mission and becoming a for-profit entity that prioritizes money over ethics
OpenAI responds with a blog post that claims Musk tried to take over the company or force a merger with Tesla
OpenAI says they rejected Musk’s demands because they believed that no one should have absolute power over AGI
OpenAI also defends its decision to not open-source AGI, saying that it would pose serious risks to humanity
OpenAI provides screenshots of email exchanges with Musk to support their claims
The lawsuit could have huge implications for the future of AI, as generative AI is expected to be one of the most transformative technologies of the 21st century
AI UPDATES
Major New AI Concerne Arise
AI Theft: Ex-Google engineer arrested for AI theft. Linwei Ding, 38, allegedly stole trade secrets from Google’s AI and worked with two Chinese firms. He faces up to 40 years in jail.
Microsoft Engineer’s Warning: An AI tool from Microsoft could create damaging images, a Microsoft engineer alerted US authorities and legislators. He says he asked Microsoft many times to stop Copilot Designer until it had better protections.
AI Infringement: Patronus AI, an AI model evaluation firm, published a study on how frequently AI models generate protected content. They discovered that all models did so, with GPT-4 from OpenAI creating protected content for 44% of the prompts they tested.
AI Deception: A British charity, the Center for Countering Digital Hate, warns that AI-made fake media is surging on X and could sway voters in future elections. The report says AI-generated disinformation increased by 130% each month on average in the past year.
How serious is it?
History repeats itself. Every new technological breakthrough comes with its own set of problems, which in turn motivates new innovations to be developed.
AI is no exception. It poses some new and unprecedented challenges, but also shares some commonalities with the issues we have faced before with the spread of social media and other technologies. The responsibility will be on the companies that develop these AI tools to establish safeguards that ensure ethical use.

Stability AI has announced an early preview of Stable Diffusion 3, a text-to-image model that creates high-quality images from text prompts.
The model is a response to OpenAI’s Sora, a video-generating model that raised ethical concerns.
Stable Diffusion 3 improves on:
Multi-subject image generation
Image quality and spelling accuracy
Consistency and coherence
Stability AI has opened a waitlist for early access and is working with experts to ensure safe and responsible AI practices.
Stable Diffusion 3 will be available in different model sizes to suit different users and needs.
Stability AI’s mission is to enable creativity with generative AI and make it open, safe, and accessible

DALL-E3 Dominates the Text-to-Image Contest: A Comparison of Eight Models on Visual Aesthetics, Typography, and Prompt Following
Source: Stability.ai
The chart shows how well each model can generate images from text prompts based on three criteria: visual aesthetics, typography, and prompt following.
Visual aesthetics measures how pleasing the images are to the human eye, typography measures how well the text elements in the images are formatted and aligned, and prompt following measures how closely the images match the text prompts.
The models are ranked by their win rate percentage, which is calculated by comparing their images with those of other models in pairwise contests.
The highest win rate overall belongs to DALL-E3, which performs well across all three criteria, especially in prompt following. This means that DALL-E3 can create images that are both visually appealing and faithful to the text prompts.
The lowest win rate overall belongs to Ours w/o T5, which performs poorly in all three criteria. This means that Ours w/o T5 struggles to generate images that are attractive, well-formatted, or relevant to the text prompts.
The other models have varying strengths and weaknesses in different criteria. For example, PixArt-a has a high win rate in visual aesthetics but is average in typography and prompt following, while Ideogram-V1.0 excels at prompt following but has lower scores for visual aesthetics and typography.
