Musk Calls SpaceX-Tesla Merger a ‘Good Idea’ as AI Revenue Jumps Ninefold

Musk's floating of a SpaceX-Tesla combination is less a deal announcement than a signal about where he sees the center of gravity moving: AI, xAI's Grok, and X folded into one corporate orbit with his most valuable assets. The ninefold AI revenue jump, cited without a period or baseline, does much of the persuasive work here — it frames AI as the growth engine that could justify tying Tesla's public-market exposure to private SpaceX. For Tesla holders, the question is governance and valuation transparency across entities. Watch whether this stays a remark or becomes a formal proposal, and whether any disclosure clarifies the revenue figure's basis.
