SpaceX, Elon Musk’s company from the space sector, has absorbed xAI – his company developing artificial intelligence. The information was provided by Musk himself in a message on the SpaceX website. According to PAP, this is the next stage of sorting out assets before the SpaceX public offering planned this year. Previously, Musk associated xAI, the creator of the Grok chatbot, with the X website.
The key motive for the merger is to be computing infrastructure. Musk wrote that current AI development relies on large data centers that require huge amounts of energy and cooling. “Therefore, the only logical solution is to shift these resource-intensive efforts to… a place with enormous power and space” – pointed out the billionaire.
Listen to Musk. His vision of the future sounds like science fiction
According to Musk, within two to three years “the cheapest way to generate power for AI will be space.” The AP agency notes that this forecast is not shared by companies investing in terrestrial data centers, including Microsoft. This shows the difference in approaches to scaling AI in the coming years.
The combination of these two companies is expected to create one of the largest private technology companies in the world, with a total valuation of approximately $1.25 trillion and is part of SpaceX’s plans for the potential going public (IPO).
In the official SpaceX announcement, Musk presented this connection not as a minor change, but as a fundamental shift in development strategy and mission.
This transaction is not just the next chapter, but the next book in SpaceX and xAI’s mission: scaling towards creation sentimental sunthat will understand the Universe and expand the light of consciousness towards the stars – said the billionaire.
