Restructuring in progress for xAI

Elon Musk is reorganizing xAI, the artificial intelligence company he founded in March 2023 with the ambitious goal of "building the most powerful AI in the world." Three years after its inception, xAI has suffered the loss of six co-founders and is reducing staff. Performance in coding benchmarks has not met expectations, prompting Musk to opt for a complete refounding.

A second start

This is the second time Musk has decided to start from scratch with xAI. The first time, in March 2023, he launched the company with 12 co-founders. The decision to rebuild the company suggests a deep dissatisfaction with the progress made so far and a desire to give a new direction to the development of AI within xAI.
