SpaceX + xAI deal gets us one step closer to Musk Industries | E2243
SpaceX is buying xAI, forming a mega-corp that plans to launch data centers into SPACE. Will Tesla also join up, fulfilling Elon’s destiny to become real-life Tony Stark, with his own Musk Industries? Jason and Alex break down the future of SpaceXAI in a breaking news report. THEN, we’re still celebrating OpenClaw (née Clawdbot) Mania! Oliver and Lukas return to TWiST to share their Almost Top 10 (okay it’s just a Top 6) favorite Skills so far. Learn how they’re using Replicants to summarize TWiST episodes, surf Reddit, produce original Gamma decks, train agents to make themselves smarter, and take care of LAUNCH’s administrative and operations tasks.
Key Points
- SpaceX has acquired XAI with plans to build AI data centers in space, leveraging SpaceX's capacity to send large masses into orbit.
- OpenClaw, an AI agent platform, is rapidly gaining traction, allowing users to integrate various skills like Reddit search, Gamma deck generation, and Polymarket monitoring, though security concerns remain.
- Peter Steinberger, the founder of OpenClaw, is likely to attract significant VC interest due to the platform's potential, and he should capitalize on this momentum by securing funding and assembling a strong team for further development and commercialization.
