Today Elon Musk held a Twitter Space to discuss xAI.

Here is a recap of what was discussed for those who missed it:

- The founding team was on hand to introduce themselves, and I must say it is an impressive team with an impressive background. They had very strong backgrounds with Deep Mind, OpenAI, Google, Tesla, etc.
- Elon Musk said the goal with xAI is to build a good AGI (artificial general intelligence) with the purpose of understanding the universe.
- Musk said that the safest way is to build an AGI that is ‘maximum curious’ and ‘truth curious,’ and to try and minimize the error between what you think is true and what is actually true.
- For truth-seeking super intelligence humanity is much more interesting than not humanity, so that’s the safest way to create one. Musk gave the example of how space and Mars is super interesting but it pales in comparison to how interesting humanity is.
- Musk said there is so much that we think we understand but we don’t in reality. There are a lot of unresolved questions. For example, there are many questions that remain about the nature of gravity, and why there is not massive evidence of aliens. He said he has seen no evidence of aliens whatsoever so far. He went further into the Fermi Paradox and how it's possible that other consciousness may not exist in our galaxy.
- If you ask today’s advanced AIs technical questions, you just get nonsense, so Musk believes we are really missing the mark by many orders of magnitude and that needs to get better.
- xAI will use heavy computing, but the amount of ‘brute force’ will become less as they become to understand the problem better.
- Co-Founder Greg Yang said that the mathematics they find at xAi could open up new perspectives to existing questions like the 'Theory of Everything.'
- Elon stated that you can't call anything AGI until the computer solves at least one fundamental question.
- He said that from his experience at Tesla, they have over complicated problems. “We are too dumb to realize how simple the answers really are," he said. "We will probably find this out with AGI as well. Once AGI is solved, we will look back and think, why did we think it would be so hard.”
- They are going to release more information on the first release of xAI in a couple more weeks.
- Elon Musk said that xAI is being built as competition to OpenAI, when asked by @krassenstein.
- The goal is to make xAI a useful tool for consumers and businesses and there is value in having multiple entities and competition. Elon said that competition makes companies honest, and he’s in favor of competition.
- Musk said every organization doing AI has illegally used Twitter’s data for training. Limits had to be put on Twitter because they were being scraped like crazy. Multiple entities were trying to scrape every tweet ever made in a span of days. xAI will use tweets as well for training.
- At some point you run out of human-created data. So eventually AI will have to generate its own content and self-access that content.
- Answering a question from @alx, Musk said there is a significant danger in training AI to be politically correct or training it not to say what it thinks is true, so at xAI they will let the AI say what it believes to be true, and Musk believes it will result in some criticism.
- Musk said it’s very dangerous to grow an AI and teach it to lie.
- Musk said he would accept a meeting with Kamala Harris if invited. He said he’s not sure if Harris is the best person to be the AI czar, but agrees we need regulatory oversight.
- Musk believes that China too will have AI regulation. He said the CCP doesn’t want to find themselves subservient to a digital super intelligence.
- Musk believes we will have a voltage transformer shortage in a year and electricity shortage in 2 years.
- xAI will work with Tesla in multiple ways and it will be of mutual benefit. Tesla’s self-driving capabilities will be enhanced because of xAI.
- According to Musk, the proper way to go about AI regulations is to start with insight. If a proposed rule is agreed upon by all or most parties then that rule should be adopted. It should not slow things down for a great amount of time. A little bit of slowing down is OK if it's for safety.
- Musk thinks that Ray Kurzweil's prediction of AGI by 2029 is pretty accurate, give or take a year.

I've love to hear everyone's thoughts on where you think xAI will go.

How I Get 7-8 hours sleep EVERY night. My Full Sleep Protocol.

(Like if this guide helps, Ill make more)

This is what I've been asked about most. How much I sleep and how...Here's EXACTLY what I do to consistently get great sleep and max recover each night.

1. Check the food tips at the bottom of the post when done.

2. Go to bed/wake at the same time every day. Mine is 8pm and 4am. The hours dont matter. You could do 10pm to 6am. From what ive read 9apm-5am is most optimal.

3. Use light to train your sleep. I use red light blocking glasses at 6pm. I have red light therapy and an artificial sun lamp that I hit myself with in the AM.

4. Avoid caffeine. This is what I feel is 95% of peoples problems. If you don't drink caffeine you'll like sleep better.

BUT if your an addict like me, use it correctly. Keep it below 400 mg per day AND do not have ANY thing after 4 hours into your day. So for me that is 8am.

Caffeine is never a good thing. I regret I use it. However I can score a solid 8 if I follow the rule above.

5. Create a sleep room. We have a glorious dramatic master bedroom in our house. However most master bed rooms are chaos.

They are connected to the master bath (someone always coming in and out). They are usually large, lots of windows, devices etc.

This is why I have a room in the house just for sleep. Its small, closed off, FEELS safe, hyper boring, windows blacked out with :

Blue light filtered TV, air/sound machine, climate controlled mattress pad (62 degrees).

BONUS: Dont underestimate the feeling of safety. Sleeping in a HUGE house or HUGE room makes you naturally feel vulnerable.

Sleeping in a small room, behind a few locked doors with noise canceling goes a LONG way.

Yes its paranoid but when I went from a very large open home to a small apartment in Austin many floors up and behind a few locked doors, popping up mid night or getting anxious went away.

Humans/animals naturally want to go sleep in a tight well defended safe cave lol...Not wide open in the middle of the woods.

6. COMMUNICATE your sleep needs. Most people try to sleep in the master bedroom around their partners sleep hours.

This is stupid. As romantic as it is, people going to sleep/waking up at different times, both getting up multiple times, making random noise, dogs running around (if you have them) is absurd.

You need to communicate sleep is non optional. You are going to have a MUCH better relationship and lives together (financially, physically, mentally) if you sleep 8 hours VS sleep terrible in the same room.

Luckily my partner and I are on the same schedule and use the sleep room. If we are not on the same schedule for the day, easy...we have two bed rooms.

7. Exercise. I do a fully body work out and martial arts every day.

8. NO FOOD 4 hours before bed. No water 3 hours.

Having a a full stomach will MESS up your sleep. Having to get up to pee constantly will mess up your sleep. Eliminate both.

9. STOP WORKING. Delete all work apps on your phone. I get done at 4pm. If you cant get you work done in 8 hours each day, you need to work on time management....NOT bring it with you to bed.

Having to respond to emails, run your social media, chat on slack outside of work hours is a sign of a shitty performer...Not a go getter.

10. NO TV. I am a TV watcher when I go to bed, I watch the same shows on repeat. The solution to this is many TV have a "turn off picture" option. This way you can "listen" the same way you would as watching.

11. Carbs only when work is mostly done. This is just a bonus, but not everyone responds to a keto diet. I do not. I need about 100-150 carbs a day.

The problem is these will make you tired. Simply only include the bulk of them in your last meal of the day. Only have LIGHT meals of protein/fat through the day.

SUPPLEMENTS
You dont need any. I find the less I take the better I sleep.

If you give your body what it needs (aka the above) it will go to sleep.

Humans have been sleeping 8 hours for thousands of years. It is literally CRITICAL to survival/repair/health. Its preposterous to think that we would of evolved needing supplements to go to bed.

95% of sleep problems are due to over stimulation and light/lack of routine.

A old human would of woke up roughly the same time, taken no stiumulants, eaten single ingrediet food (thats all there was lol) and roughly fallen asleep when the sun (aka the ONLY light source they had) started setting/going down.

We frankly dont do that. We are gods compared to old humans. At our own peril we control our energy, light and have endless access to all sorts of food/entertainment/novelties.

Thus our OLD body is always like "WTF is going on!!".

Recreating patterns similar to an old human is all it takes.

Hope this helps.

------------

A) Do not have a crazy goofy high variety diet. This of course means no sugar/booze and focus on single ingredient food. It also means keep your diet consistent.

Processed/crap food and booze will kill your sleep for days. By all means do the above, then have a nice dinner out and get the nachos and have an few old fashions/beers. Then track your sleep. Its not pretty. Even if you sleep MORE its worse sleep and due to your body being damaged.

On a simple diet :

Why? Every time you ad things to your diet, you ad chaos. Your body can react very differently and its impossible to pin down WHATs causing it. This is why eating 50 ingredient foods its bad, you have no idea what is causing you trouble.

Find a diet that sits PERFECTLY with you and you can do daily. Start with very basic foods you KNOW sit well with you, slowly ad in food. Or if your like me just stick to a basic diet. I dont value diversity/excitement in my diet more than I value feeling good.

My diet :
DIET
Almonds 400 calories
Cacao 100
Whey Protein shake with green powder 400
Chicken 1200 OR fatty beef/organ meat 1100
Sweet potatoes 400
Broccoli 150
Spinach X
(blueberries IF beef)
2600 calories a day around 170-210 protein. 100-120ish carbs.

B) Get your electrolytes. Get the daily amount of potassium magnesium and salt.

Most are deficient in potassium/mag because they come from veggies. They are overdosed on salt because humans cram it in every thing.
