The merger will “combine the data, models, compute, distribution and talent” of the two companies, according to Elon Musk. In particular, Grok AI is expected to expand on X.

Elon Musk shared on X that he told the platform to himself, by way of his other company xAI, but many are confused about why he sold X to himself.

Musk, the owner of both companies, said the deal values the startup AI company at $80 billion and the social media platform at $33 billion.
