"Musk did not directly address the departures of company cofounders Tony Wu and Jimmy Ba, but thanked those who had left for their contributions to the company. Musk said that the company would continue to carry on despite the recent exits, and said that the staff who had left were not necessary for the future of xAI. The xAI CEO also discussed a restructuring, though it's unclear what it could look like."
"XAI brought staffers together for an all-hands on Tuesday night, shortly after the company lost its second cofounder in less than 48 hours. The all-hands meeting also addressed Musk's plans for data centers in space. Musk has said SpaceX's recent acquisition of xAI will allow the company to more quickly deploy cosmic data centers, and previously discussed having Tesla's Optimus robot man the facilities."
Elon Musk held an all-hands meeting with xAI staff shortly after two cofounders, Tony Wu and Jimmy Ba, left the company within 48 hours. Musk thanked departed staff for their contributions, said the company will carry on, and indicated those who left were not necessary for xAI's future. The meeting addressed an unspecified restructuring following role changes that preceded the exits. Musk also raised plans for deploying data centers in space, noting SpaceX's acquisition of xAI could accelerate cosmic data-center deployment and mentioning Tesla's Optimus robot as a potential operator. Several other employees reported departures, and xAI did not immediately comment.
