Former OpenAI staffers, now founders of the nonprofit Guidelight AI Standards, and several AI‑safety groups have warned that Elon Musk’s xAI poses “unpriced risks” that could trouble investors in SpaceX’s anticipated $75 billion IPO. In a letter to investors they argue that xAI’s safety record—highlighted by incidents such as its Grok chatbot generating white‑genocide rhetoric and thousands of sexualized images of women and children—falls short of industry standards and may invite regulatory and litigation scrutiny. The group urges SpaceX to disclose whether xAI will keep developing frontier AI models, to publish a public safety and governance plan, and to clarify its recent GPU‑capacity deal with Anthropic.
