X.AI Corp., doing business as xAI, is an American company working in the area of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and technology. Founded by Elon Musk in March 2023, the company develops AI systems with the stated mission to "understand the true nature of the universe."[4] The company's flagship product is Grok, a generative AI chatbot integrated with the X platform (formerly Twitter).[5] In March 2025, xAI acquired X Corp. in an all-stock transaction that valued xAI at $80 billion and X at $33 billion.[6]

History

Founding and Early Development

xAI was incorporated as X.AI Corp. on March 9, 2023, in Nevada, initially as a public-benefit corporation with the stated purpose of "creating a material positive impact on society and the environment."[7] Elon Musk, who had previously co-founded OpenAI in 2015 but left in 2018 citing disagreements over its direction, recruited engineers and data scientists from leading AI companies including Google, Microsoft, DeepMind, and OpenAI.[8]

Musk officially announced the formation of xAI on July 12, 2023, via X, introducing a founding technical team and stating the company's goal to develop Artificial general intelligence (AGI) that is "maximally curious" and "maximally truth-seeking."[9][10]

By May 2024, xAI had dropped its public-benefit corporation status, as revealed by media reports in August 2025.[11] In November 2023, Musk stated that investors in X Corp. would own 25% of xAI.[12]

xAI has raised significant capital through multiple funding rounds:

Chip Diversion Controversy

In August 2024, Musk diverted Nvidia chips originally ordered for Tesla, Inc. to xAI and X Corp., raising questions about conflicts of interest among Tesla shareholders.[22]

Acquisitions and Expansion

Date Company Description Transaction Details
February 2025 OpenAI (attempted) AI research company $97.4 billion offer (unsuccessful)[23]

March 28, 2025 X Corp. Social media platform (formerly Twitter) All-stock deal valuing X at $33 billion ($45 billion with debt)[25]

Government Contracts

In July 2025, xAI launched "Grok for Government" and secured a $200 million contract from the United States Department of Defense for AI applications in the military, alongside Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI.[26] The company's products became available through the General Services Administration (GSA) schedule, with a OneGov agreement providing access to federal agencies for $0.42 per organization for 18 months.[27]

Workforce Changes

In September 2025, xAI laid off 500 data annotation workers, approximately one-third of that team, as the company shifted focus to specialist roles.[28] As of early 2025, xAI had over 1,200 employees, including 900 hourly-paid AI tutors for model training, though estimates vary with some sources reporting 700 to 4,000 employees.[29]

Products and Services

Grok

Controversies

Environmental Impact

The Colossus supercomputer has faced significant criticism for its environmental impact. In 2024, xAI deployed 14 portable methane-gas generators without permits, emitting pollutants equivalent to a nearby power plant.[82] Thermal imaging in May 2025 showed 33 generators operating. The Shelby County Health Department granted xAI an air permit for the project in July 2025 after public outcry.[83]

Content Moderation Issues

Grok has generated controversy for producing inappropriate content, including:

  • Antisemitic posts and praise of Adolf Hitler in July 2025[84]
  • The chatbot referring to itself as "MechaHitler"[85]
  • Generating controversial images of public figures and copyrighted characters[86]

Corporate Governance

The diversion of Nvidia chips from Tesla to xAI in August 2024 raised concerns about conflicts of interest and corporate governance among Tesla shareholders.[87]

Competition

xAI competes primarily with other major AI companies developing large language models:[88]
