xAI — Legal Structure: Subsidiary of SpaceX
The source text directly confirms that SpaceX acquired xAI in February 2026 ('xAI joins SpaceX' / 'SpaceX announced today that it has acquired xAI. February 02, 2026'). The claim states xAI was acquired by SpaceX in February 2026 and previously operated as an independent private company. The source confirms the acquisition date and implicitly supports the prior independence (by announcing the acquisition as a new event). The claim's characterization of xAI's current legal structure as 'Subsidiary of SpaceX' is a reasonable inference from an acquisition, though the source does not explicitly use the word 'subsidiary.' However, acquisition typically results in subsidiary status, so this is confirmed by the acquisition fact.
