Elon Musk has announced the merger of his social media platform X with his artificial intelligence company xAI, valuing the combined entity at over $100 billion. This strategic move comes after a difficult period for X, marked by declining revenue and advertising loss, and aims to capitalize on the growing market for generative AI tools.

Walter Isaacson, biographer of Elon Musk, predicts a merger between Tesla and Musk's AI startup xAI, which would enhance Tesla's capabilities in real-world artificial intelligence. This consolidation would leverage extensive datasets from Tesla's autonomous driving and the Optimus robot, aligning with Musk’s vision of integrating his various ventures into a cohesive ecosystem.
