According to a business filing, Twitter owner Elon Musk has formed an artificial intelligence company called X.AI Corp.
The name reflects the new moniker change at Twitter, which is now called "X Corp."
- The filing shows Musk founded X.AI Corp., an AI company incorporated in Nevada, on March 9.
- Musk is listed as the director and his family office director, Jared Birchall, is named as the company's secretary.
- Last week, it was reported that Musk was assembling a team of AI experts to launch an AI startup that would compete against OpenAI, the research organization he helped co-found years ago.
- The CEO is said to be in talks with some SpaceX and Tesla investors about funding the AI venture.
- Meanwhile, legal documents have revealed that Twitter "no longer exists" upon merging with X Corp., a shell firm.
- Musk appeared to confirm the change by tweeting an X, though Twitter has not provided further details about the rebranding or what it might entail.
- In October, Musk announced that his purchase of Twitter might accelerate his plans for creating X, "the everything app."
- While Musk hasn't elaborated on his plans for X, he has previously hinted at launching a social media platform called X.com.
