Elon Musk’s xAI Acquires X, Because of Course
Social platform X struggled after Elon Musk took over, but its fortunes improved dramatically after US President Donald Trump won reelection. Now it will be become part of Musk's AI startup xAI.
Musk bought Twitter and later renamed it X in 2022, a deal that involved taking out billions of dollars in loans from a group of Wall Street banks and other lenders. Musk also said he gave X investors a 25 percent stake in xAI last year, which helped boost the value of the social media platform and provide more security to lenders, according to reporting from the Financial Times. While xAI previously appeared to be mostly playing catch up with rivals like OpenAI and Google, Musk gave the startup a boost by creating a massive cluster of 100,000 GPUs, enough computing resources to compete with the biggest industry players.
