> [1] xAI was founded by Musk on March 9, 2023 > [2] Elon Musk completed the acquisition of Twitter in October 2022 xAI would've just been an AI division of Twitter if Musk wasn't worried that Twitter was going to go bankrupt and take the company (xAI) with it (Twitter). It's extremely suspicious that Grok was available to paying X subscribers and not some other arrangement. "Separately" funded is pretty thin. It's the same group of people funding xAI [3] as Twitter acquisition [4].
