Part 3 Musk vs Apple & OpenAI: Grok’s Global Ceiling: Fun for a Few, Irrelevant for the Many

from JB's Podcast with Kai and Nia · host JB

Send us Fan Mail AI in Two Worlds: Functional, Open, and Trusted vs. Fun but Fragile Grok is limited to certain countries where its content is unlikely to be banned, but it is not open to the world majority in places where communal harmony, cultural, ethnic and religious sensibilities are still central. Basically Grok will have a hard time in many Asian (east, Central or west), as well as in Africa, Latin America or Eastern Europe and even parts of Western Europe, if growing disdain for Tesla is any indicator. ChatGPT, Copilot, and most platforms are meant for productivity or fum that is available to youngsters without parents being concerned about the lack of guardrails. OpenAI is actually "open" to the world, and MS even when it is involved with dubious military activities, finds a way to keep a generally positive image. Effectively, Musk the billionaire who likes to play and hurl insults at perceived or real opponents, has created an AI that is him to the next level. Yes, it is disruptive, yet not usable by most people in a productive first focused manner and certainly not for most businesses that value stability and a lack of controversy. It is interesting to also note that the average people can use Grok or buy a Tesla, a company increasingly showing that it will have a hard time surviving given severe drops in sales figures, yet Musk doesn't allow average people invest in his money maker SpaceX or even xAI. Isn’t this telling? Grok may be Musk having fun and satisfying childhood dreams, while the calculated Sam Altman is steadily positioning himself and OpenAI as the next economic powerhouse, friends of all and no one.
