OpenAI is reportedly in the early stages of developing a social media platform similar to Elon Musk's X, further escalating the ongoing conflict between OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Musk. The project, described as an internal prototype, would integrate ChatGPT’s image generation capabilities with a social feed. Altman has begun seeking feedback on this concept. This announcement follows recent developments where Musk accused OpenAI of attempting a hostile takeover and deploying bad-faith tactics amidst a legal battle. Additionally, OpenAI is navigating a transition to a capped-profit structure, just as Musk has launched his own AI venture, xAI. There are also rumors of Meta working on a similar social app, indicating a competitive landscape for AI-driven social media platforms. As OpenAI continues to innovate with new AI models, it remains locked in a contentious relationship with Musk, underscoring the tensions within the tech industry.
