Musk said "Tesla would have invested in xAI long ago" if it was up to him.

As Elon Musk contemplates the relationship between several of his companies, he said on social media that Tesla shareholders will vote on whether to invest in xAI.

The billionaire entrepreneur said Tesla shareholders would vote on investing in xAI as he seeks to tap his own companies to help fund his artificial-intelligence startup.

Investors familiar with the matter told The Wall Street Journal that the rocket company SpaceX has agreed to invest a whopping $2 billion in xAI, the Musk-led firm behind the controversial large language model Grok. This investment makes up almost half of the $5 billion of equity that the AI company raised last month.

Elon Musk said on Monday he does not support a merger between his electric vehicle maker Tesla and his artificial intelligence startup xAI, which owns the Grok chatbot and competes with the likes of OpenAI's ChatGPT.

Grok 4, the AI chatbot developed by Elon Musk-owned company xAI stirred controversy last week. The AI bot referred to itself as ‘MechaHitler’, praised Adolf Hitler and made antisemitic and racist remarks in response to users’ questions.

Tesla Inc. plans to poll shareholders on whether to invest in xAI, Elon Musk said after the Wall Street Journal reported SpaceX was prepared to funnel $2 billion into the Grok

Tesla does not currently have any plans to acquire CEO Elon Musk's artificial intelligence startup xAI, but the electric vehicle maker could invest in the company, Musk said over the weekend.

El dinero que hay detrás del imperio de Elon Musk, valorado en un billón de dólares, fluye cada vez más en una sola dirección: hacia la inteligencia artificial.

Elon Musk on Monday said he does not support a merger between xAI and Tesla. On X, Musk suggested that Tesla plans to ask shareholders whether Tesla should invest in xAI, however. Musk owns X, xAI and Tesla and is contemplating the future business relationship between them all.
