xAI

"I'm talking more about SpaceX. xAI is also doing insane stuff, but just that."

"Before XAI even got anywhere, he was consistent. We shouldn't — I wish I don't want to be doing this, but it's already been done. It's too late."

"We seem to hear from Sam, OpenAI, Dario, Anthropic, Elon, xAI that they're willing to slow down, have some sort of deal."

"There's been a lot of churn at xAI for sure, and SpaceX-ers have kind of marched in and helped out where there were significant gaps in that arena. We were all really excited to learn about AI."

"xAI was a shell of a company that was mostly valuable because of Elon's infrastructure and capex that Elon bought. It wasn't because of the tech or even the people who largely walked out the door after that acquisition."

"We all make fun of xAI for having some challenges with total flop utilization on its clusters, but the reality for the rest of the world is it's far, far worse."

"Elon got there and he's done pretty well with xAI. He had to build the compute. He had to build those data centers. But now he's built a bigger and better one, which is why he can rent out Colossus."

"If China hadn't forced the issue by open sourcing, suppose there was just OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic, XAI, all four US companies."

"This is what xAI essentially is — the long-term vision, right? Where Elon's making Terafab to make his own chips and vertically integrating, running his own data center."

"It's OpenAI, it's Anthropic, it's xAI — all these sort of frontier labs that people use the products every day."

"Why would we short-change the way that we present our nation to the world? It doesn't make any sense to me that we have a nation where you can have ideas like xAI and OpenAI and be on the forefront of technological innovation, and in the same nati..."

"Yan Lun is being highly critical of XAI and Tesla and he's saying they're now renting out their data spaces because they cannot afford to build internally."

"Going into SpaceX and XAI, working with Jared Burchil to get into some of those rounds and then you're liquid."

"When XAI was fundraising, there were a lot of people that, you know, on just the pure dimensions of the companies, both of those investments were hard to look at and think that they were going to be good deals."

"if Elon can get his act together at xAI. Those are the five."

"You've got Elon with XAI, you've got Anthropic, you got Dermis at Google and Sundar, you've got OpenAI, Sam Alman, you've got all these big tech CEOs that are trying to sort of raise super intelligence like like it's a child."

"Just like sort of on the side xAI, Boring Company, Neuralink like Doge if you want to include that as like a project."
