Sam Altman and Elon Musk, who co-founded OpenAI before a falling out, now lead competing AI camps: Altman's OpenAI (maker of ChatGPT) and Musk's xAI (maker of Grok, folded into his rocket company). By product metrics, Altman is winning: ChatGPT has about 1.1 billion monthly users and roughly half the U.S. chatbot market, with annualized revenue around $24 billion to $25 billion. Grok has roughly 117 million monthly users, a shrinking share recently in fifth place, and revenue closer to $500 million against a cash burn near $1 billion a month. Altman also won the legal round when a jury tossed Musk's lawsuit over OpenAI's restructuring, clearing OpenAI's path to a public listing. However, the article argues Musk's vision wins for investors due to reach, capital, and belief. By merging xAI into Space Exploration Technologies and taking the combined company public, Musk gave ordinary investors a way to buy into his AI vision, layered with vertical integration, computing, orbital data centers, and distribution from Starlink and Tesla. OpenAI reportedly targets a public debut near a $1 trillion valuation.
