Source details and check notes Authors Benj Edwards Version Contemporaneous report and screenshot of the launch roster. The current x.ai company page has changed; original archive retrieval was unavailable. Canonical address Open the canonical source ↗ Accessed 2026-09-18 Language English (en) Attribution Benj Edwards, Musk announces new AI company that seeks to “understand the universe” (2023-07-12). Reuse No open redistribution licence asserted. Bibliographic metadata and brief attributed paraphrases or excerpts only. Source roles are relative to each claim. Check notes Candidate pack passage, lab genealogy (research/lab-genealogy). The paraphrase’s verbatim anchor “Zihang Dai” matched the retrieved text on 2026-10-15 and again in a fresh retrieval the same day. Read directly from the publisher. Matching ignored differences of whitespace, case, quotation marks, apostrophes, dashes and Unicode compatibility forms, so the source’s typography can differ. The paraphrase is Selekoa’s; only the anchor is the source’s wording. A cross-family machine check (2026-10-16/17) re-read the record’s sources and agreed with the record. No human editorial review. Status and meaning Editorial status. Not reviewed by an editor . An exploratory record that no editor has accepted. This status does not say whether a person has read any linked passage. Each evidence record above shows how it was checked.
