Musk To Discuss Investing $5B in XAI After Seeing Poll Results
Business tycoon Elon Musk plans to talk with the board of Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) about possibly investing $5 billion in his artificial intelligence startup xAI.
商業大亨埃隆·馬斯克計劃與特斯拉公司（納斯達克股票代碼：TSLA）董事會討論可能向其人工智能初創公司xAi投資50億美元的問題。
What Happened: Earlier this week, Musk gave his 191 million X followers a chance to weigh in on the possible expenditure by placing a yes-no survey on the platform on Tuesday.
發生了什麼：本週早些時候，馬斯克週二在該平台上進行了 “是” 和 “否” 調查，讓他的19100萬 X 粉絲有機會權衡可能的支出。
"Should Tesla invest $5B into xAI, assuming the valuation is set by several credible outside investors?" Musk asked.
“假設估值由幾位可靠的外部投資者設定，特斯拉是否應該向xAi投資50億美元？”馬斯克問道。
He also wrote "Board approval & shareholder vote are needed, so this is just to test the waters" in parentheses.
他還在括號中寫道：“需要董事會批准和股東投票，所以這只是爲了試水”。
About 67.9% of 958,086 voters approved the idea by the next day. And Musk indicated that he plans to discuss the heavy investment with his seven fellow Tesla board members.
到第二天，在958,086名選民中，約有67.9％的人批准了這一想法。馬斯克表示，他計劃與他的七位特斯拉董事會成員討論這項巨額投資。
"Looks like the public is in favor. Will discuss with Tesla board," he wrote on X.
“看來公衆對此表示贊成。將與特斯拉董事會討論。” 他在X上寫道。

Why It Matters: Musk continues to blur the line between all the entities he owns.
爲何重要：馬斯克繼續模糊他擁有的所有實體之間的界限。

The xAI startup raised $6 billion in a series B funding in May, giving it a post-money valuation of $24 billion.
