Elon Musk threatens to sue Microsoft over using Twitter data for its A.I.
Summary
Twitter CEO Elon Musk threatened to sue Microsoft on Wednesday, accusing the software giant of illegally using the social media companys data to train its artificial intelligence model. Musks threat by tweet came after Mashable and other publications reported that Microsoft would drop Twitter from its advertising platform, which enables ad buyers to manage all of their social media accounts in one place. Big Tech companies are working to develop cutting-edge AI models like OpenAIs GPT, and data owners are seeking to stop them or charge for use of their content. Musk was a co-founder of OpenAI before leaving its board in 2018, and has complained recently of the companys move from a nonprofit model to a highly valuable business influenced by Microsoft. For example, Reddit said earlier this week that it would charge companies for access to its programming interface used to feed the conversations among Redditors into AI training software.
