In a 90-minute long Twitter Spaces audio chat, said that xAI sought to deepen the understanding of the universe, including the Earth’s evolution and the fragility of civilization.

The world’s richest person said, “If it tried to understand the true nature of the universe, that’s actually the best thing that I can come up with from an AI safety standpoint.
