SpaceX’s artificial-intelligence division has held internal discussions about purchasing customer records from startups that have ceased operating, according to Decrypt. The data could potentially be used to support Grok, the AI system associated with Elon Musk. Decrypt reported that the talks focused on acquiring records from companies that no longer have an active organization to represent them or respond to requests. The report did not identify the startups involved, disclose any transaction terms, or say that a purchase had been completed. The discussions place attention on the fate of customer information after a startup shuts down, particularly when its data may remain valuable to another company. Elon Musk’s involvement is reflected through SpaceX’s AI division and Grok, but the supplied report does not provide further details about the scope, timing, or outcome of the talks.
