Elon Musk Engages in Domain War and Twitter Handle Disputes with OpenAI: Unveiling the Latest Developments at X
A few weeks ago, we brought to your attention the news about Elon Musk allegedly not compensating the original owner of the handle @X on Twitter. Now, the situation seems to be repeating itself, as Musk’s influence continues to expand on the platform during its rebranding as X. In July, when Twitter underwent a transformation and unveiled its new identity as X, there was widespread speculation about the official handles for the rebranded accounts. Amidst the confusion, Musk took over the @X handle, which was previously owned by Gene X Hwang, a photographer based in San Francisco. Despite Hwang’s hope for compensation, it was reported that no such attempt was made by the billionaire entrepreneur. Fast forward to August, and it appears that Musk’s platform has taken control of several other handles, including @music and @sports, among others. Some affected users have expressed frustration, like Jeremy Vaught, who claimed to have created @music 16 years ago and now sees it taken over by Musk.
In the midst of this ongoing drama, no official clarification or announcement has been made by the X team, leaving users and onlookers puzzled and concerned about the platform’s direction.
Adding to the intrigue surrounding Musk’s actions, recent developments suggest that he might have acquired the domain AI.com. Previously registered and redirected to ChatGPT, the web version of OpenAI’s language model, AI.com has now been redirecting to Musk’s own AI company called xAI. Although it’s not confirmed whether Musk officially took over the domain, the move raises questions about his intentions in the AI domain. Notably, Musk had previously invested in OpenAI during its early stages, and with the creation of his AI company, xAI, it appears he is striving to challenge OpenAI’s prominence in the AI realm.
As these developments unfold, speculation about Musk’s actions and their impact on Twitter and the AI industry continues to grow, with many eagerly awaiting official statements from the concerned parties to shed light on the situation.
