I think the SpaceX deal was to goose the IPO. Google holds a significant stake in SpaceX, and made a fortune on the IPO.

  Anthropic is paying even more to a direct competitor that now fields a model that trades blows with their Opus.

    I'll eat my hat if SpaceXAI manages to produce something even close to leading edge again

      Why lol? Because you don't like Elon? XAI has continued to stay within a few months of leading edge, and now suddenly they'll just never do it again, despite doing it literally today?

        Culture. XAI employs were bragging about spending all weekend at the office. Many tweet that they have been fired after 8 months. Some get fired right before their first big stock vest. The team is mostly H1Bs. Do you think they don’t have every incentive to benchmax? Do you think top tier talent wants to work there?

    I'm not talking about Anthropic.
