Elon Musk Responds to X Becoming India's Top News App

Elon Musk, a tech tycoon, responded to a tweet asserting that X is currently the top news app in India's App Store. Online responses to his one-word reply have been mixed. DogeDesigner was the first X user to share the post.

The user submitted a video with the Indian flag and said, "BREAKING: X is now the #1 news app on the App Store in India." Musk posted it again with a brief remark. All he wrote was "Cool". That little answer was sufficient to elicit a variety of responses.

Some users used the occasion to voice their disapproval, while others rejoiced in the platform's success in India. "Mom said stop wasting time on X... now I tell her I'm watching the news," one person commented.

"X should be geo-blocked in India," another person added. "Whoa! Elon Musk appears to be very composed as he simply responded, "Cool." Someone said, "X's ranking as the top news app in the Indian App Store is truly amazing."

xAI Acquires X

Musk's artificial intelligence establishment, xAI, revealed in March that it had paid $33 billion to purchase X. Two of Musk's most important businesses, X and xAI, were combined in the all-stock transaction.

Musk claims that the objective is to pool their teams, data, models, and processing power in order to assist in the training and enhancement of his AI chatbot, Grok. In a post on X, Musk revealed the terms of the deal, stating that the combination values X at $33 billion ($45 billion less $12 billion in debt) and xAI at $80 billion.

The fates of xAI and X are interwoven. The brand formally took the step today to integrate talent, distribution, computation, models, and data. In 2022, the Tesla owner initially purchased X, which was then known as Twitter.

The corporation went private with the $44 billion deal. He laid off a significant number of employees following the takeover, which caused a precipitous decline in ad income and the departure of several major sponsors.

But as Musk's power within the Trump administration increases, several companies have recently begun to make a comeback.

Musk Rising High in Trump’s Era

Musk is the head of the Trump administration's Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE. Additionally, this has placed him in a position to potentially influence the organisations that monitor his business activities.

According to a media report, the seven banks that gave Musk $13 billion in loans to purchase X held onto the debt for two years before being able to sell it all at once in February.
