Elon Musk denies WSJ report that SpaceX showed AI handset prototype before IPO

Elon Musk on Wednesday denied a Wall Street Journal report that SpaceX showed investors and other stakeholders a prototype of an AI-focused device ahead of its blockbuster IPO.

“Utterly false,” Musk said in a post on X, without elaborating.

The Journal had reported, citing ‌people familiar ⁠with the ⁠matter, that the prototype handset-like device was designed to run on ​a proprietary operating system, contained AI technology from xAI and would ​use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon chips.
