“Just the very early stages of the singularity,” Musk posted on X on Saturday.
Elon Musk believes the best way to solve the difficulties of building AI data centers on earth is to move them into outer space. His merger this week of his rocket company SpaceX with his artificial intelligence company xAI could help get them there.
SpaceX, a leader in rocket launches and satellite internet, will now also house Musk’s ventures in artificial intelligence and social media.
As with SpaceX, then, Mr Musk is gambling Tesla’s future on AI, and his belief that he can harness his existing businesses to dominate the technology. Plenty of doubters have scoffed at his grand ambitions before. But never has Mr Musk put so much on the line. ■
