Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence startup, xAI, is following in the footsteps of rivals OpenAI and Anthropic in opting for an unusual corporate structure.
XAI has been organized in Nevada as a for-profit benefit corporation, a structure that allows the company to prioritize having a positive impact on society over its obligations to shareholders, according to a late November filing with Nevada. Musk, who launched the secretive startup earlier this year, has long expressed concern over the impact AI could have on society.
The specifics of the funding round are yet to be finalized.

Nvidia stock has more than tripled this year as investors bet the graphics-chip specialist will power the artificial-intelligence revolution. Elon Musk is among those who can’t get enough of its semiconductors, Oracle’s Larry Ellison said on Monday.
Musk has opted to use Oracle’s servers to run his xAI company’s recently launched chatbot, Grok. The cloud-infrastructure giant managed to provide enough Nvidia chips to power the first version of Grok, but fell short of Musk’s demands, Ellison said during Oracle’s latest earnings call, according to a transcript provided by AlphaSense/Sentieo.
“Boy, did they want a lot more GPUs than we gave them,” Oracle’s billionaire cofounder and tech chief said. “We gave them quite a few but they wanted more, and we are in the process of getting them more.”
Elon Musk’s space exploration company is looking to sell shares that implies a valuation that’s $25 billion higher than the last funding round, Bloomberg reported.
