Elon Musk’s xAI Going After OpenAI
Elon Musk’s AI startup, xAI, secured $6 billion in Series B funding. This investment pushes xAI's valuation to $24 billion.
Backers include Andreessen Horowitz, Sequoia Capital, and Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal.
With the new funds, xAI will launch its first products, build advanced infrastructure, and speed up research and development.
Musk formerly supported OpenAI. Now, he aims to compete against it because he doesn't trust the future of AI in the hands of Microsoft, Google or OpenAI.

How the CIA is Using Generative AI
U.S. intelligence agencies are adopting generative AI to manage data growth and enhance surveillance.
Early successes include Sable Spear, which outperformed human analysis in tracking Chinese fentanyl traffickers. Anshu Roy's company, Rhombus Power, used AI to predict Russia’s invasion of Ukraine with 80% certainty.
Nand Mulchandani, CIA’s chief technology officer, warns that these AI models are not fully dependable yet. AI models can be biased and are vulnerable to security breaches.
Despite this, the CIA developed Osiris, a generative AI for open-source data, streamlining analysts' work.
