Chapter 244 Musk's Algorithm Crisis 1
The intellectual property rights of the AI manager algorithm were handed over to Musk by Lin Yuan.

Naturally, Musk officially transferred it to his personal OpenAI.

For a time, all the technology bigwigs at home and abroad were completely excited.

【A milestone innovation in AI applications...】

[The technology industry in Eagle Country is still leading the technology trend... ]

【As expected of Musk...】

Public opinion once again showed its fickle nature, just like a piece of plasticine.

Neither logic nor rationality is necessary; the public's understanding of public opinion mainly lies in its storytelling nature.

Musk once again became the man standing at the pinnacle of technology, as if he were the savior of mankind, pointing out the direction for the practical application of AI.

Some even forcibly linked this incident to the return of manufacturing to the United States. Their point of view is also very simple - who says that the return of manufacturing must bring back the low-end and mid-end manufacturing industries that have flowed out? The United States can once again increase its advantage in cutting-edge manufacturing and achieve a crushing victory over quantity through quality.

Lin Yuan no longer cared about the performance of public opinion, because he had seen it several times. He also increasingly believed that public opinion was like the tide, a ruthless tide that could carry a boat or overturn it. He gradually gave up the idea of making friends with the tide in his heart, because he did not think he had the ability and interest to do so. He began to agree with some of Musk's views - public opinion should be controlled.

Let’s take this time’s AI manager algorithm as an example.

Before Lin Yuan officially assigned the intellectual property rights of the algorithm to Musk, Musk did not dare to announce openly: This algorithm was developed by OpenAI.

So even though there have been countless rumors, Musk has not responded directly. He even deliberately brushed off reporters' questions several times.

In the eyes of the public, this algorithm was born in Tesla Takeaway, which is a company invested by Tesla. Tesla and OpenAI are both companies owned by Musk. Compared with OpenAI, Tesla Takeaway is one level lower, so this algorithm was obviously developed by OpenAI.

Faced with Musk's vagueness every time he talked about the algorithm, the public opinion has speculated many times about the reasons behind it. But after guessing, the group of mortals actually came to an incredible conclusion - Musk was afraid that this algorithm would have too much of an impact on the world, so he never admitted it.

Lin Yuan was completely confused by this kind of argument.

Because anyone with a little political knowledge has already discovered one thing: OpenAI's stock has shown an upward trend several times, but each time it fell back after Musk avoided talking about the algorithm.

If there is a lot of false information in the Western world, the only thing that is most real and cannot be deceived is their stock market.

Because when a person verbally supports something, he may not really support it in his heart. But when he pays for it, he probably supports it sincerely.

Just like when the Juhua Factory launched the Mate 60, although there were still many pessimistic voices internationally, the strange thing was that Apple’s stock price quietly plunged at a very coincidental time.

It didn’t jump earlier or later, but just a few days after Meta60 was launched, which was enough time for some institutions to disassemble the machine and study its internal CPU process. Apple’s stock jumped 7~8 points.

Foolish people always like to draw conclusions based on their feelings, while smart people are always used to looking at data.

The inexplicable plunge in Apple’s stock actually shows that Mate 60 had achieved a certain degree of success at that time.

Similarly, when Musk was interviewed and deliberately avoided talking about the relationship between OpenAI and the AI manager algorithm, OpenAI's stock would always fall back. And the timing was extremely consistent every time.

This is why.

Because investment institutions can infer from common sense that this algorithm was created by OpenAI, but as long as Musk does not admit it, there will be variables. Although investment institutions do not know the inside story, they have complete risk control. When facing Musk, a leek-cutting maniac, if the other party does not admit it in person, there is probably some reason that he cannot admit it. Then these institutions will not bet.

Therefore, in fact, from the stock price trend of openai, we can already see that the algorithm behind the AI manager is not simple.

The bloodthirsty wolves in the investment banks have already noticed that this stock price trend is not in line with Musk's usual style. If Musk's OpenAI has full control over this algorithm, Musk would not play so passively.

Because when Musk was speculating on Dogecoin and Bitcoin, he was extremely cold-blooded and capable. He was not as hesitant as he is now.

As a result, managers of investment banks were cautious about this wave of OpenAI's market, and when Musk announced that OpenAI was indeed responsible for the development of this algorithm, the reaction in the public opinion circle was even more enthusiastic than that in the investment circle.

This is a very abnormal phenomenon. Generally speaking, public opinion will react only after the investment circle has completed its layout in advance. In fact, public opinion is often deliberately guided by the investment circle.

However, while the public opinion circle has begun to hype up Musk, the investment circle is still cautiously testing OpenAI's stock.

Until Musk open-sourced the AI manager algorithm.

Once it is open source, everyone can see the code. This is the final word - it proves that OpenAI does have the AI manager algorithm.

It was not until the moment of open source that OpenAI's stock price finally started to soar.

This world seems to be information-rich, but in fact there are still different worlds.

When the investment circle was frantically following the trend of openai, the reaction of the public opinion circle was very funny - a group of people were praising Ma Sheng for open source again.

This is the difference between the two worlds.

The investment circle has confirmed OpenAI's control over the AI manager algorithm through open source, so they want to get a piece of the pie by following up and buying OpenAI's shares.

But in the eyes of those naive people in the public opinion circle, this became Ma Sheng’s open source feat.

Those people in the public opinion field, whether they are the spectators or the big Vs, have no idea of the turmoil behind this algorithm incident.

Even those investment institutions that have a share of the pie are confused by Musk's unusual behavior this time. Because Musk's layout this time was obviously very hasty, his open source behavior even has a bit of the flavor of self-incrimination.

The general view in the investment circle is that Musk is worried that the myth of openai will be shattered. Because the biggest fear of technology unicorn companies is the shattering of myths. Openai has a market value of hundreds of billions of US dollars before, and has been relying on chatGPT to tell stories, but has never had a solid product that can be stably landed and profitable.

This AI manager algorithm is an opportunity for OpenAI, but also a challenge.

If it is finally proven that this algorithm was not developed by OpenAI, then OpenAI will be finished. Because Tesla and OpenAI are Musk's companies, and Tesla's food delivery does not use the algorithm developed by OpenAI, then where did this algorithm come from?

If it was developed by Tesla, then at most OpenAI would be finished, and everyone could still brag about Tesla. But everyone knows that Musk's companies have division of labor, and general algorithm development has always been focused on OpenAI. Therefore, it is inevitable that people will be suspicious.

And if it is finally proven that this algorithm was not developed by Tesla, then both Tesla and OpenAI will be in danger.

In a word, things built on myths will also be shattered when the myths are shattered.
