Musk says SpaceXAI will be renamed SpaceXSI after Trump's AI terminology order
Elon Musk confirmed on X that SpaceXAI, the division formed after SpaceX acquired xAI, will be renamed SpaceXSI. The move follows President Trump's executive order directing US government agencies to replace the term 'artificial intelligence' with 'Super Intelligence' in official communications. As of this report, SpaceXAI's website and X account still carry the old name.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The episode shows how a political push over terminology can ripple into corporate branding, with Musk and reportedly Mark Zuckerberg both adopting the government's preferred phrase. Repeated renaming of the same division—xAI to SpaceXAI to potentially SpaceXSI—could create brand confusion for customers and investors. Musk has a history of announcing changes that don't materialize, so it remains uncertain whether this rename will actually take effect.
- Musk says SpaceXAI, formed from SpaceX's February acquisition of xAI, will become SpaceXSI.
- The change follows Trump's executive order mandating 'Super Intelligence' replace 'artificial intelligence' in government usage.
- No official rebrand has yet appeared on SpaceXAI's website or social accounts.
