xAI's Grok maker SpaceXAI will rename itself SpaceXSI, Musk says
“Okay so the company behind Grok wants to drop the word AI. Like, from its own name.”
The short version On October 4, 2026, Elon Musk said SpaceXAI, the Grok maker once called xAI, will become SpaceXSI after Trump's Super Intelligence order. No date, same Grok.
Okay so on October 4, 2026, Elon Musk said SpaceXAI, the company behind Grok, will be renamed SpaceXSI. Quick recap: it started as xAI, then became SpaceXAI this summer after SpaceX took it over.
Is SpaceXAI becoming SpaceXSI?
Yes, according to Elon Musk. When someone on X asked if SpaceXAI could become SpaceXSI, Musk replied "Yes, we will make that change." It was an informal reply on social media, though, not a formal announcement, and SpaceXAI's official accounts still use the old name for now.
What does SI stand for?
SI stands for Super Intelligence. On September 29, 2026, President Trump signed an executive order telling federal agencies to say "Super Intelligence" and "SI" instead of "artificial intelligence" and "AI." Trump says the word "artificial" makes the tech sound fake. The order covers official letters, websites, reports and policy documents, and it also set up a Super Intelligence task force with 120 days to report on risks and opportunities.
Does Grok change with the new name?
No. Grok stays Grok. The SpaceXSI rename is about the company name, there's no date yet, and it would be the company's second new name this year.
Bro. My channel is literally called AI Got You. Am I SI Got You now?
Does a new name change what the AI can do?
A new name doesn't change what the AI can do. SpaceXSI or SpaceXAI, it's the same models and the same Grok. Real talk: labels are marketing. What the product actually does is what matters.
So don't fall for the label. Just judge what it does. Like, now.
If you'd rather hear this stuff early than find out the hard way… follow. I got you.
