Elon Musk merges X with xAI in a $33bn deal

Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence venture, xAI, has acquired social media platform X (formerly Twitter) in a deal valuing the company at $33 billion.
The agreement will also allow xAI’s valuation—pegged at $80 billion—to be shared with X’s investors.
Musk, who leads Tesla, SpaceX, and now both xAI and X, announced the merger in a post on the platform, stating, “xAI and X’s futures are intertwined. Today, we officially combine data, models, computing power, distribution, and talent to accelerate AI development.”
The deal is expected to enhance xAI’s ability to train its AI chatbot, Grok, by leveraging X’s vast real-time data streams. However, key details—such as leadership integration and potential regulatory hurdles—remain undisclosed.
