Elon Musk is being urged to take a prominent role in shaping US artificial intelligence policy, particularly as the Trump administration begins to form. The advocacy group Americans for Responsible Innovation (ARI) has initiated a petition to appoint Musk as a special advisor on AI, citing his unique qualifications. The petition emphasizes that Musk's leadership could position America at the forefront of AI development and safety.
Musk's history with AI is complex; he co-founded OpenAI but has also been a vocal critic, advocating for a moratorium on advanced AI models after the release of ChatGPT. His involvement with xAI raises questions about potential conflicts of interest, yet ARI believes these can be managed effectively. The petition aims to gather 10,000 signatures, reflecting a significant push for Musk's influence in AI governance.
