24-7-2024 (TEXAS) Tech mogul Elon Musk has taken to social media to gauge public opinion on a potential multi-billion dollar investment by Tesla into his artificial intelligence venture, xAI.
On Tuesday, Musk, who has become increasingly synonymous with headline-grabbing social media activity, posted a poll on the platform X (formerly Twitter) asking his followers whether Tesla should invest a staggering $5 billion in xAI.
Should Tesla invest $5B into @xAI, assuming the valuation is set by several credible outside investors?
(Board approval & shareholder vote are needed, so this is just to test the waters)
