Hmm, this doesn't feel like something the CEO of a defense contractor should be doing

This country is being sold down the river, the sale to be completed on 11/5. And half of us are sleepwalking through it, having no idea of what they're doing and who they're doing it for...

Elon Musk, enemy of ‘open borders,’ launched his career working illegally
Investors in Musk’s first company worried about “our founder being deported” and gave him a deadline for obtaining a work visa.

Since Elon Musk purchased the Twitter platform and converted it to X, do you feel the platform is more ideologically balanced?

Yes or No?

I’ve never used either one, but I am super curious. Next time I write a case justification for more funding, this might come in handy.

I find it an easy way to cut down on time doing web searches - drive down to the info you need then do more precise web searches for deeper understanding. Saves tons of time.

Elon Musk on Friday evening announced he has sold his social media company, X, to xAI, his artificial intelligence company. xAI will pay $45 billion for X, slightly more than Musk paid for it in 2022, but the new deal includes $12 billion of debt.

Musk wrote on his X account that the deal gives X a valuation of $33 billion.

“xAI and X’s futures are intertwined,” Musk said in a post on X. “Today, we officially take the step to combine the data, models, compute, distribution and talent. This combination will unlock immense potential by blending xAI’s advanced AI capability and expertise with X’s massive reach.”

Musk didn’t announce any immediate changes to X, although xAI’s Grok chatbot is already integrated into the social media platform. Musk said that the combined platform will “deliver smarter, more meaningful experiences.” He said the value of the combined company was $80 billion.
