Elon Musk's AI company, announced in July 2023 with a stated goal of understanding the universe, maker of Grok and builder of the Colossus data centre in Memphis, which the company said was assembled in 122 days. It merged with X in March 2025 at reported valuations that made the social network a subsidiary of its own chatbot.
Someone remembers the Memphis turbines: reports in 2024 and 2025 of gas generators powering Colossus and residents asking about the permits. The record notes it was the first data centre with a neighbourhood association.
The record notes the company name had one letter and one variable, and that Musk had already announced a 'TruthGPT' in April 2023 that quietly became this.
A post in March 2025 announcing that xAI had acquired X in an all-stock deal, with reported figures of $80bn for xAI and $33bn for X. The record notes that the same person owned both, which made the transaction the easiest negotiation on file.
What does it mean? Write it the way you would say it out loud.
