‘Facebook Sucks’: Elon Musk Slams Social Network Exec Who Criticized His Knowledge of AI
Elon Musk took a swipe Thursday at a Facebook exec who criticized his knowledge of AI (artificial intelligence).
“Facebook sucks,” Musk wrote in response to a tweet from Jerome Pesenti, Facebook’s head of AI.
Pesenti had earlier tweeted that Musk “has no idea what he is talking about when he talks about AI” in response to a CNBC article about the Tesla and SpaceX CEO’s “complex” relationship with the AI community. . .
In his tweet, Pesenti wrote that “there is no such thing as AGI [Artificial General Intelligence] and we are nowhere near matching human intelligence.”
