Xai

the merger of SpaceX with xAI is an example

by

There is an idea that sounds almost radical in 2026, but that has actually been operating for decades in several European countries or in the form of internal experiments in companies: that workers have a real seat on the boards of directors of the companies where they work. The debate has returned to the front line due to a proposal from Yolanda Díaz, third vice president and Minister of Labor, based on the report of the International Commission of High Level Experts “On Democracy at Work”. Curiously, one of the best metaphors to understand what this report proposes is not in a factory or an SME: it is in the upcoming merger of the Elon Musk’s business universe. Díaz’s proposal. The Ministry of Labor presented a report which proposes two major changes in the relationship between companies and workers: giving workers more voice in the strategic decisions of companies and facilitating access to company property. The underlying idea is simple and has been applied for some time in certain managerial ranks and industries, in which part of the remuneration is in the form of shares or participations in the company itself. The report suggests that, if a workforce is an essential part of a company, their participation should not be limited to negotiating salaries or schedules, but rather to be an active part of its management. For this reason, it proposes introducing more worker representation on boards of directors. Not as a symbolic gesture, but with real weight. The proposal is staggered: in medium and large companies (50 to 1,000 employees), a portion of the board seats would be reserved for staff representatives, with percentages that would grow depending on size. Furthermore, the report states that companies should make it easier for employees have a part of the capitalwith formulas that can range from participation plans based on shares, to more structured models in the form of trusts or funds. SpaceX: employees who are “owners”, but without a voice. In Silicon Valley, and especially in startups, it is very common for companies pay part of salary in sharesoptions or units that are consolidated over time or based on objectives. This means that thousands of workers end up being, de facto, partial owners of the company they work for. However, and here the shock appears, these workers/owners do not have a voice in the decisions made by the company, leaving so much your workplace as your propertyin the hands of third parties. In a merger as decisive as the one that has been proposed between SpaceX and xAI (or in any similar operation in the Musk ecosystem as the one that occurred before between X and xAI), employees find out about these decisions after the fact, through internal channels and without leaving room to maneuver. Europe has been doing it for years. One of the keys to the report is that it does not propose an isolated occurrence, but rather an adaptation of models that already exist and on which research has been done. The best known case is Germany, where the co-management model It has been integrating worker representatives into supervisory or administrative bodies in large companies for decades. Also has been tested in Norway in a law implemented in 2020, or with the Rebsamen law of 2015 in France. These previous studies have shown that the participation of workers in company decision-making improves labor relations, greater investment in training and long-term productivity, although the effects may vary depending on the sectoral context and institutional design. The report insists that Spain is behind in this area and recalls that the article 129.2 of the Spanish Constitution It already marks the obligation to promote the participation of workers in the company. The proposal, therefore, is presented as a way to ground that mandate in a modern model that improves labor relations. It is a paradigm shift in Spain. The great value of the Ministry of Labor’s approach is that it unites two concepts that normally go separately: labor participation and ownership. Although this remuneration formula that motivates workers to improve your performance and thus improve your personal capital, is not something common in Spain. However, giving workers a greater presence would also give the workforce power to influence on key decisions such as relocations or restructuring that lead to closure “preventing viable companies from being liquidated or sold to predatory investment funds,” the minister said.

SpaceX, founded by Elon Musk, has just announced the purchase of xAI, founded by Elon Musk

by

Until very recently, this was just a rumor. Today, SpaceX just told it as a fact. The aerospace company has published an official statement in which it states that it has acquired xAI, the artificial intelligence company founded by Elon Musk. The text does not go into details of the operation, but it does set the tone: it talks about integrating AI, rockets and space connectivity as part of the same strategy. And, although the announcement is forceful, it leaves many important questions in the air that still have no answers. SpaceX frames the operation as part of a vertical integration. The official statement is signed by Musk and has a more ideological than corporate tone, with references to “freedom of expression” and an almost existential mission. But, beyond the story, the document leaves out some elements that are important to understand this movement: there are no figures or details of how the agreement materializes. In development.

What can we expect after the purchase of X by XAI

by

Last Friday, unexpected news and totally surprise. The startup XAI, from Elon Musk, acquired xalso by Elon Musk. The tycoon announced the operation highlighting how that made Xai an estimated assessment (according to him) of 80,000 million dollars, while that of X was 33,000 million dollars (45,000 million except 12,000 million debt). The question, of course, is what this movement is due and what can we expect from now on. Because. According to Musk, the future of Xai and X is intertwined, and this fusion allows “combining data, models, computing, distribution and talent” of both companies. What it certainly allows is to ensure that X accounts are integrated in XAI’s, with much more economic projection. It is true that X is a company that It seems to recover groundbut it has had a bad time since Musk bought it. A natural fusion. As indicated In The New York Timesboth companies are private and already shared numerous resources, such as their engineers. Grok, XAI’s chatbot, is trained with data published by X and that are public in this social network. Andrew Verstein, a professor at the UCLA Law School commented on and daily how what seems to say Musk with this movement is “I have a company that may not be bankrupt, but it is not the jewel of my crown. I will buy it so that it seems a success using one of my other companies.” Actions that change hands. According to The Wall Street JournalX and XAI shares will be replaced by new shares of a holding called XAI Holdings Corp. There is another potential advantage derived from this fusion, according to analysts: it will be easier to lift new investment rounds for that combined entity. It already happened before. In 2016 he used actions from his electric car company, Tesla, to buy Solarcity, a company dedicated to renewable energy in which Musk was the highest shareholder and in which his cousin Lyndon Rive was the CEO. Many shared resources (and opaque) among their companies. Companies created or managed by Elon Musk have always made use of resources shared. Being in many cases private, several of these movements are opaque, and for example in August 2024 the Employee movement From Tesla to Xai and also from Gpus used in Tesla To use them in X or XAI. All with an objective: accelerate in his plan to convert Xai into a reference in the segment of artificial intelligence. The relationship between Trump and Musk facilitates everything. The months following the inauguration of the new presidential cycle of Donald Trump have been beneficial for Musk. The valuation of X has risen, to a large extent because the platform is now more influential. The tycoon indicated in the announcement of the operation as X has more than 600 million active users. Grok, from Xai showed the way to integrate into x. During a good part of their existence, XAI’s models were limited to X payment subscribers, but for months the Chatbot Grok 3 has been available for all X users, including those who use the free version. XAI takes advantage of the activity in X to train its models, and that makes this integration even more natural now that both companies have merged. What can we expect. The acquisition should not influence the operation of both companies for users, but one thing is clear: if they previously shared resources in a more opaque way, they will now do it comprehensively. The XAI AI models will be nourished by the data published in X more than ever, and in turn x will benefit from the improvements that are implemented in models such as Grok 3 and that are available from the platform. The overcoming always on the horizon. We have been talking about A potential xand that fusion of Xai with X makes this project somewhat closer. It already has covered the creation of content and the social network, but many areas are missing, and one above all: to be able to use X as a payment platform, Something to which he has pointed out On more than one occasion.

XAI of Elon Musk acquires X, also from Elon Musk: a movement that almost no one saw

by

Elon Musk has announced that xai, The artificial intelligence startup founded in 2023 to compete with Openaihas acquired X, the social network previously known as Twitter. As explained, the operation has been closed through a exchange exchange. The assessment. During the last months, much has been speculated on the value of XAI and X, with figures that changed according to the different financing rounds. With this transaction, there is already a clearer reference, at least according to the Musk version: XAI becomes valued at 80,000 million dollars, while X stands at 33,000 million. This last figure amounts to 45,000 million if 12,000 million are added in debt, always according to the businessman himself. {“Videid”: “X8N07SL”, “Autoplay”: False, “Title”: “Elon Musk and his obsession with the letter x that you did not know”, “Tag”: “Webedia-Prod”, “Duration”: “495”} Musk presents Xai as “one of the laboratories of the leaders in the world”, although he is still far from his main rival. Openai reached an assessment of 157,000 million dollars in 2024 And it could reach 300,000 million With the support of SoftBank. Chatgpt It remains the reference, although Xai has updated Grok with functions such as image generation and their own app. What changes with the acquisition? According to Musk, the operation will allow “combining data, models, computer, distribution and talent.” In practice, integration was already evident: Grok was integrated into X for months. What changes is the legal and corporate structure. In Xataka The fever for the chatgpt images is “melting” the OpenAi GPUs: the company has already begun to limit access It will be necessary to see if this restructuring implies offices, transfers or equipment mergers. For now, the impact for users seems minimal. Of course, with Musk in command, everything can change overnight. The promise: offer more intelligent and personalized experiences.

What is and main novelties of the new artificial intelligence model of Xai

by

Let’s tell you The novelties of Grok 3the new artificial intelligence model launched by XAI. This is the passage of Elon Musk’s company in the war to get the best chatbot of AI, and with which he adds to Grok reasoning capabilities. We are going to start explaining what exactly Grok 3 is, so that if you had never heard of it you can understand it. Then, we will explain the main differences of this model and why it is important. What is Grok 3 Grok is the name of the XAI artificial intelligence model, Elon Musk’s company. It is a model of AI like Gemini of Google or GPT of OpenAi. In the case of Grok, it is the model that uses the Chatbot Grok (yes, they have the same name) linked to the social network X, so much so that to be able to use it you need to have an account in this social network. As each artificial intelligence model, Grok 3 is the version released in February 2025, and that at the time of writing this article is the most modern version. So, It is a version that improves the characteristics of Grok 2and that offers more advantages. Just as other AI models are also evolving and improving, Grok does the same, trying not to be left behind in the frantic career of this technology. Elon Musk had promised a true revolution with this new version, although finally it is simply at the height of the competition. Another thing you should know is that Grok 3 is a family of models, with Grok-3 and Grok-3 Mini. The first is the complete model with all functions, and the second is a smaller one that offers balance between speed and quality of responses. What news brings Grok 3 The first difference is that while Grok 2 became free for all users, Grok 3 is going to be a payment modeland you will need to pay a subscription to use it. It will be available in the premium+ subscription of X, which costs 22.08 euros per month, or on an official new website that is not yet available in Europe. As for the model itself, the main novelty is that This model is able to reasonsomething we have already seen in the rest of the AI ​​models. With this, the AI ​​can generate more precise answers by analyzing the different response options before offering the final result. This reasoning capacity, as in other models, is optional. But if you choose it, another difference is that Grok 3 will hide the reasoning processesbeing less transparent than competition. Even so, it offers the possibility of generating multiple candidate responses. The other great incentive of this AI is that it allows Offer answers without filtersso some can be politically incorrect. This means that there will be very little self -censorship, and that you can ask almost anything. According to the companyGrok 3 has surpassed several competition models in benchmarks or test banks used to measure the AI ​​capacities. It has been above models such as GPT-4O, Deepseek V4 and Gemini 2 Pro in non-reasoning tasks Grok also improves in computational capacity, training with 10 times more computing capacity than Grok 2, and has been trained with a powerful 100,000 GPUS NVIDIA H100 cluster. In parallel to Grok 3 we have Deepsearch, which becomes the artificial intelligence -based search engine, and that Grok 3 will use. It is a tool that functions as a chatbot capable of reasoning, and that can navigate online and create Detailed reports to offer in -depth information on topics you ask.

Grok 3 does not arrive and Xai is staying behind

by

In the last hours we have known The offer Elon Musk has made Not by OpenAi as such, but for the one by the non -profit association (nonprofit) that controls it. That has unleashed a debate about the true reasons for this offer, but also leaves a question in the candlestick: in what situation is Elon Musk in the AI ​​segment? Hi, Xai. Elon Musk carries in a Open war with Sam Altman for years, and in fact In April 2023, Xai created to develop their own AI models. Since then the company has launched some AI models and made striking advances with Grokbut it seems to be left in many lands. In others, yes, it surprises. Grok was sarcastic … In November 2023 XAI Grok presentedthe AI ​​model that competed with Chatgpt and did it with a striking characteristic: had a sarcastic tone. From its launch and for months Grok It was only available for X subscribers. … and Grok 2 has no censorship. In August 2024 the new version was presented, Grok 2more advanced and powerful. However, what caught the attention of this model was its apparent lack of censorship. Thus, it is possible Generate images of any kind, including Deepfakes of famous peoplesomething that other models do not allow. Elon Musk and XAI announced in December 2024 that They opened the model To all X users without having a payment subscription, something that undoubtedly promoted its use and popularity. Grok 1 is “Open Source” (but Grok 2 No). One of Grok’s striking features is that Elon Musk shared this project as Open Source. The gigantic original model, of 314,000 million parameters (314b) was then four times larger that calls 2, the other great reference in Open Source models, with 65b size. The funny thing is that Grok 2 is not: it is not in the Official XAI repository In Github, and there is no news that the same thing that happened with his predecessor will happen. Investment rounds. In November 2024 Elon Musk got lift 5,000 million dollars For XAI, who joined the round of 6,000 million dollars that raised in May 2024 and at least two other planned rounds According to Crunchbase. The firm certainly seems to have notable funds, but be careful, because it is surely burning them, as with OpenAi. 100,000 NVIDIA GPUS. Last summer Musk lit “The most powerful the world of the world“, which apparently was baptized With the name of Colossus and that has 100,000 GPUS NVIDIA H100. It is supposed to be used to train its new model of AI, Grok 3, and of course having that computing power is theoretically a guarantee to stay competitive with its rivals. Where is Grok 3? But the truth is that Grok 3 still does not appear, and that Musk promised to have it ready in December. Musk Indian In January that Grok 3 “will arrive soon” and that the pre-training stage was complete and had used 10 times more computation capacity than with Grok 2. In Tom’s Hardware they also point out that XAI has used the data generated by users of X for that training. Reasoning models and AI agents. The great unknown is what will happen with XAI in two areas where its competitors are advancing to forced marches. Deepseek R1 has promoted the Free availability of reasoning models, but there are also several AI companies that have already shown agricultural models such as Operator of OpenAi or Computer Use of Anthropic. That XAI knows does not have alternatives at the moment. The rear. All this makes it clear that today Xai continues to rely in most proposals in the market. His models are not the best, he has no reasoning models or public agents, and Musk seems to be more interested in putting the Zancadilla to Altman already OpenAi than to get XAI to lead this technological career. Even so, surely there will be news of the company soon, and it will be then that we can value the real situation of it. Image | DVIDS | XAI In Xataka | Chatgpt and its rivals are sosainas.
