Briefings
SpaceX and Tesla are exploring a merger valued at over $3.5 billion, potentially surpassing Amazon in market cap. Elon Musk stated the companies formed special committees to analyze a union, though no operational agreement exists yet. The merger would combine two companies with combined market values of $3.5 billion, placing the new entity ahead of Microsoft, Alphabet, Apple, and Nvidia. Musk also referenced a 'Superintelligence Force' initiative and the Grok AI model, which is available for free on Tesla vehicles.
