xAI, Elon Musk’s newly formed AI company, has revealed itself with a new website detailing its mission and team at https://x.ai/. Musk tweeted the company’s intent is to “understand reality” without any other details or explanation.
“The goal of xAI is to understand the true nature of the universe,” according to the website. The team is headed up by Elon Musk and includes team members that have worked at other big names in AI, including OpenAI, Google Research, Microsoft Research, and DeepMind (which was recently folded into Google).

It’s hilarious to me that Elon insisted on having a headshot and being mentioned first in the team description. Everyone knows he isn’t doing anything of value, but he has to appear as if he’s writing the code himself because his tiny ego can’t tolerate “just” being the money guy.
Haven’t you heard? He personally designed rockets, satellites, and electric car batteries and he also mined his own emeralds.
I heard he also hand builds every Tesla. Crazy he has time to do that while meticulously crafting every starlink satellite and raptor engine from scratch!

read: make in-house chatbots for use on Twitter.
Guess he’s now bored of running twitter into the ground
I would be absolutely shocked if this wasn’t just smoke and mirrors marketing.
Oh boy, can’t wait for the new racist, antisemitic, transphobic, far right fascist AI to emerge from this.
I can’t wait till it leaks and gets made to write horny stories like the Facebook one did.
Wait, I thought Musk wanted all AI development to stop for a while until regulations were put in place?
Random thought: What if Musk did that in an attempt to slow down competition whilst planning this company?
That’s a bingo!
Just like he did with Hyperloop to destroy high speed rail and sell more cars.
“Do as I say, not as I do.” - Musk and like every billionaire ever.
So he found time after all the printed code reviews, just amazing
Understand the true nature of making money with AI “research” mirite??
Lol fucking clown
Awww he named it after his son… how sweet.
Given the fuss he made about OpenAI being closed source (a case of broken clocks), it will be interesting to see if this is open source (doubt)
MElon is so full of shit.
