Elon Musk merges SpaceX with xAI to build AI data centers in space, creating $1.25 trillion entity

Elon Musk announced the merger of SpaceX and xAI, creating a $1.25 trillion tech conglomerate that aims to launch satellite data centers in space. The deal values SpaceX at $1 trillion and xAI at $250 billion, with an IPO expected in June. While Musk claims space-based AI compute will become the lowest-cost option within two to three years, experts question the technological feasibility and timeline of launching up to a million satellites to serve as orbital data centers.
