How is Google competing with SpaceX?
- an0malous 4mo agoThey’re both AI companies
- klodolph 4mo agoOne of which has more capacity and wants even more, one of which has less capacity and is renting it out.
- wiether 4mo agoOne is an ad company the other a lifestyle venture?
- sumeno 4mo agoIn the way that Michael Jordan and myself are both basketball players
- prymitive 4mo agoAll companies are now AI companies. Just like a while ago all companies were suddenly Ads companies. The entire tech sector is one big FOMO - once you reach certain scale you do exactly the same thing as everyone else.
- mcintyre1994 4mo agoI get what you mean but SpaceX owns xAI, which is objectively a company that trains models and has massive distribution by owning X. I don’t think their models are competitive with Google, and Google obviously has the best distribution imaginable, but they definitely are a competitor.
- nutjob2 4mo agoIn the sense that if you want to sell anything whatsoever today it must an AI story.

- Forgeties79 4mo agois there a reason you didn’t give the explanation…?
- sublimefire 4mo agoIf you look at the IPO filings you’ll see that Spacex as we know it is just a small part of the expected revenue generator. It is supposedly Grok and AI, hence Google competitor.
- Forgeties79 4mo agoI can’t believe serious people use Grok. It has to be propped up by Twitter usage/Musk fans right? It really strikes me as the worst one.
- pqtyw 4mo agoWell you or me also can publish a statement claiming we are Google's competitors. That doesn't mean they'll take it seriously.
