Former OpenAI Staffers Warn That xAI’s Poor Safety Record Could Complicate SpaceX’s IPO
2026-05-19 · WIRED
Former OpenAI employees have formed an AI watchdog group specifically to warn that Elon Musk's xAI has such a terrible safety record it could be a liability for SpaceX's IPO. When your AI company's safety practices are so bad they might tank an unrelated rocket company's stock offering, you've achieved a special kind of failure. Investors apparently deserve to know just how reckless xAI has been before they bet their money on SpaceX.
