Elon Musk has said he’s open to helping Apple upgrade Siri by using xAI’s Grok 4.1 AI model. His response to a viral post has sparked huge online buzz, with users imagining a smarter, faster, and funnier Siri powered by Grok.

With Bezos targeting the industrial side of AI and Musk racing ahead with Grok and xAI’s research ambitions, both appear ready to battle for the next frontier of artificial intelligence.

The rollout is live on iOS and the web now, with Android following shortly, so users can start testing the platform’s most privacy-focused messaging push yet.

Founded by Musk in 2023, xAI is seen as a challenger to OpenAI and Anthropic in the race to build general-purpose AI systems. Its rapid growth mirrors the current frenzy in the sector, with valuations soaring for companies working on foundational models.

Elon Musk was thrilled to learn that Eli Lilly CEO David Ricks uses Grok AI, his xAI chatbot, as one of his daily advisors. Musk called it “cool,” sparking online buzz and highlighting how top executives are now relying on AI tools for professional decision-making.

Elon Musk’s AI-generated “love” video using Grok Imagine drew ridicule online, with critics mocking its tone and questioning Musk’s personality. Author Joyce Carol Oates delivered the harshest critique, calling him “uncultured,” to which Musk shot back with a curt insult.

The comment didn’t go unnoticed by Elon Musk, who responded on X with a thinly veiled warning to Microsoft — a major OpenAI investor and infrastructure partner.

His latest comments also come amid rising anxiety over automation and job displacement. Just days ago, Musk responded to a post on X (formerly Twitter) claiming that Amazon plans to replace over 160,000 jobs with robots by 2027. Musk wrote, “AI and robots will replace all jobs. Working will be optional — like growing your own vegetables instead of buying them from the store.”

Moments after the vote at Tesla’s annual meeting in Austin, Texas, Elon Musk appeared on stage to roaring cheers and began dancing alongside Optimus, the company’s humanoid robot.

His ownership would increase from about 13% to 25%, adding more than 423 million shares to his holdings over the next 10 years.

Tesla Chair Robin Denholm has appeared on CNBC and other broadcasts in recent weeks to sell the plan in a sign of the board's continued enthusiastic backing for Musk, despite criticism that the billionaire's embrace of far-right political figures has weighed on sales

Mjusk also said that a vote for Curtis Sliwa, the GOP candidate in the race, amounted to a vote for Mamdani.

Sam Altman’s message comes in response to Musk’s recent tweet claiming that Altman and OpenAI “stole a non-profit” — a reference to the company’s shift to a capped-profit model in 2019.

Elon Musk has warned he could leave Tesla if shareholders don’t approve his record $1 trillion pay package. With a crucial vote on November 6, Tesla’s board says Musk’s leadership is vital as the company pushes into AI and self-driving technology.

A single 2015 tweet from Elon Musk helped Tesla recruit Ashok Elluswamy, who later became head of the company’s Autopilot and AI division. The post exemplifies Musk’s unconventional hiring approach and highlights Tesla’s largely organic growth in AI capabilities, with Elluswamy now playing a central role in developing the company’s autonomous driving systems.

Musk emphasized, as he has in the past, that sufficient voting control matters more to him than monetary compensation from Tesla.

Elon Musk predicts AI and robots will replace all jobs, making work optional. His comments follow reports that Amazon plans to automate over 500,000 roles in the coming years, raising questions about the future of work and human employment.
