“In principle, given that software companies like Microsoft do not themselves manufacture any physical hardware, it should be possible to simulate them entirely with AI,” he added.

Ummm, is someone going to tell him about the Xbox, Surface devices, and the entire Azure infrastructure they built.

Musk just announces this shit to look like he's doing something so the investors don't flee. If anything is actually delivered it will be forgettable and he will have moved on to the next thing he can hype.

It's that or he's trying to get Microsoft to give Grok a more prominent role on their platform and this is how he thinks he can active that.

How the stack of cards hasn't fallen down yet is head scratching and I'd love to know what business is actually using Grok for something serious.
