On August 2, the website X.ai, which is the official website of Elon Musk’s new artificial intelligence project, started diverting traffic from the domain AI.com. Previously, traffic on this site was redirected to ChatGPT using the same URL.

According to research conducted by the website DN.com, the domestic domain field, the AI.com domain was registered in May 1993, making it more than 30 years old and a domain with considerable historical significance.

Since February of this year, AI.com has been redirecting to ChatGPT, which has led to the assumption that Musk personally owns the site. It has been used by Musk in the past in connection to his investment in ChatGPT, but now it has been reclaimed for Musk’s own artificial intelligence project.

The information pertaining to the domain AI.com was most recently updated on April 8, 2022. As a result, the ownership of the domain that previously redirected to ChatGPT and will now redirect to X.ai has not changed hands.

On July 12, 2023, the establishment of xAI was announced on the official website of X.ai, which can be accessed via the website AI.com. DeepMind, OpenAI, Google Research, Microsoft Research, Tesla, and the University of Toronto are just some of the illustrious organisations that have been represented on this team in the past.

Elon Musk, a visionary entrepreneur and CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has been a prominent figure in the technological landscape. His latest venture, xAI, aims to take AI to the next level by developing a mathematical “theory of everything” for large neural networks.

This initiative is seen as a response to the rapid rise of ChatGPT, a language model created by OpenAI, which Musk has criticized for alleged political biases.
