Elon Musk, the world’s richest billionaire, makes waves by selling X, formerly known as Twitter, in a $33 billion deal. Musk had acquired Twitter in October 2022 for $44 billion, introducing several new features to the platform.
The acquisition of X by Musk’s AI company, xAI, aims to combine the vast user base of X with the advanced AI capabilities of xAI. Musk believes this integration will “unlock immense potential,” enhancing user experiences and promoting truth through the synergy of xAI’s AI expertise and X’s large user base.
The deal has sparked mixed reactions, with some praising Musk’s vision, while others express concerns over the impact of AI-driven social media.
