Musk wants to merge xAI into SpaceX. It has been proven that Lao Ma's comfort zone is still focused on hardware or supply chain management. His magic lies in his ability to integrate various links in the supply chain, using (1) leadership skills, (2) cash skills, and (3) PUA skills to quickly achieve his goals. With the rapid integration of several supply chains, a powerful hardware has been created, such as Tesla, SpaceX rockets, and Colossus, which claims to be the world's largest computing power center. The Colossus Computing Center he built in Memphis is one of the largest in the world. The 200000 GPU computing power graphics cards inside are partly provided by Nvidia, and partly forcibly taken from Tesla by Musk. In addition, the power supply far beyond the original factory site was also taken care of by Musk, claiming to have been built in 122 days. This is the comfort zone of the old horse. But obviously, Musk's technology stack does not include software development. After all 11 co creators left, xAI has unfortunately been placed under the SpaceX architecture by Musk and has become SpaceXAI (a name with a strong Musk flavor). In fact, if Musk had been able to do the software well, he wouldn't have fallen out with OpenAI so early. Once upon a time, OpenAI was founded to counter Google's DeepMind, with the genuine intention of establishing a non-profit AI organization. I read a Reuters report that even Sam Altman proposed the establishment of a five member committee, which would include: 1. He himself 2. Musk 3. Bill Gates 4. eBay owner 5. Facebook Joint Creation To be honest, this lineup sounds full of sci-fi flavor. If I have the opportunity to write a novel in the future, I will definitely use this scene as one of the if lines. This five member committee has a feeling of a 'Silicon Valley version of Freemasonry', you know? Of course, based on the current performance of GPT 5.5 and Hakimi 3.1, OpenAI has indeed achieved its goal of defeating Google, but unfortunately it is not open and has taken a closed path. The lawsuit between Musk and Sam is directly focused on this point. Considering that OpenAI makes him feel even more disgusted, Musk has now decided to collaborate with Anthropic to provide idle computing power to Cluade. You should know that Musk used to talk a lot about Anthropic, such as calling them "world weariness, hypocrisy, theft," and even mocking the chrysanthemum logo. I have read reports that the utilization rate of Colossus' computing power center graphics card is only 1/10, and most of it is idle. Anyway, the user base of his own xAI is not large now, so it is completely wasteful to equip such a large computing power center. Therefore, Musk can only pinch his nose and give this computing power to Anthropic to use. The enemy of the enemy is a friend, and perhaps Old Ma thinks the same way. Did you notice that in the end, the only thing left on Musk's AI journey was not Grok, but Colossus, the computing power center he quickly accumulated. But when gods fight, we ordinary users actually get some benefits? Thanks to the support of Colossus, a large computing power center, Claude finally decided to squeeze more toothpaste, for example: 1. Double the usage within 5 hours 2. Reduce peak speed limit on CC It's just a pity Grok, he's stuck in stage 4.3 now, and it's very uncomfortable to not be able to go up or down. Considering that Grok @ grok has brought us so much joy on Twitter, I really hope that Grok can be matched with a powerful new team in SpaceX who can truly lead it, and strive to return to the position of the top four companies 。
