The outlook of Tesla isn't great, so it is a perfect fit for SpaceX+xAI. All the brand new models are burning trash heaps, there are two cash cow models increasingly aging, even with the face lifts. It makes sense to consolidate everything into one big grift conglomerate.

    Grok uses Claude, isn't even using it's own model. They gave up on that, because any competent staff they hire, leaves. Elon will go into history as the greatest incinerator of economic structure ever. The Epstein-class will forever regret letting him join. And Epstein knew...how crazy is that?

    I had not heard of that. I think to stay correct, that needs some qualification. They have given up to compete with Claude on coding, so for agentic stuff the "Grok Bot" is using also Claude Opus 5.5. Grok still is an option too.

    But yeah, it does sound like they are slowly giving up to compete at the very frontier.
