SpaceX puts $2B into xAI as Grok lands in Tesla vehicles
The post SpaceX puts $2B into xAI as Grok lands in Tesla vehicles appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Elon Musk said on Monday that he has no intention of combining Tesla with his artificial intelligence company xAI, after a Tesla investor on X asked if they’d support a merger between the two.

Grok has stirred up major backlash after it was caught generating antisemitic messages and even praising Adolf Hitler. Following public outrage, xAI posted an apology on Saturday, admitting to what it called the “horrific behavior” caused by the AI and claiming that fixes had been made to prevent it from happening again. That same day, The Wall Street Journal reported that Elon’s aerospace…
