Elon Musk's AI startup, xAI, is currently grappling with a significant internal crisis following a mass exodus of its founding team. Reports indicate that 9 out of the 11 original co-founders have departed the company, leaving only two members alongside Musk. This leadership turmoil comes at a critical time as the company's primary AI development projects reportedly face operational setbacks. Musk himself has acknowledged the internal difficulties, admitting that the company 'wasn’t built right' during its initial phase. The instability at xAI could have broader implications for the AI sector, potentially affecting investor sentiment toward Musk-related ventures like TSLA. Analysts suggest that these structural challenges might slow down the aggressive expansion narrative that has characterized the AI race recently.
