Elon Musk is making a big bet on his future vision - will it work? Reports suggest that Elon Musk is eyeing up a merger involving SpaceX, Tesla and xAI, but what does he hope to achieve by consolidating his business empire? Elon Musk is a busy man, heading up multiple billion-dollar companies. While he is increasingly a divisive figure, there is no doubt that Tesla and SpaceX, his two most important ventures, have done much to advance the future of electric cars and spacecraft, respectively. But a series of corporate moves this week suggests Musk has a new vision of the future - and he may be combining all his companies to get there.
