“In some important respects, it is the best that currently exists,” he tweeted.

Led by Musk, xAI is an artificial intelligence company consisting of AI experts that have previously worked at companies such as DeepMind, OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, and Tesla, as well as the University of Toronto. The company was launched in July 2023, with the self-proclaimed goal to “understand the true nature of the universe.”
Now, it appears that xAI will launch a product to some beta testers, though it’s unclear who is getting access.

Musk recently participated in an AI-related discussion with UK’s Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. He also hinted at various developments such as a new, AI-based “See similar” posts feature that’s rolling out on X/Twitter now.
On its website, xAI says it’s a “separate company from X Corp, but will work closely with X (Twitter), Tesla, and other companies to make progress towards our mission.”
While it’s unclear what type of AI will xAI launch tomorrow, it will be joining a growing number of AI-related products that launched in the past year or so, including OpenAI’s ChatGPT, as well as Google’s Bard chatbot.
