Summary

Elon Musk confirms Grok Bot weekly usage limits were cut because serving the SpaceX agent cost more than it earned. Some users saw limits jump from 50% to 100% without using it. Musk did not say how subscriber limits change; SpaceX reported $431 million profit in its Super Intelligence division.

Key Points

  • SpaceX says in a filing that AI now makes up 52% of company income.
  • Musk calls Grok Bot "the fastest growth of a product that I've ever seen in my life."
  • A $1.2 billion one-time cost tied to the Cursor acquisition reduced Super Intelligence profit.
