BlockBeats News, May 27th, as SpaceX prepares to launch its IPO, speculation in the market about Musk integrating SpaceX with Tesla has heated up once again. Insiders have revealed that Musk has discussed the possibility of merging the two companies in the past, and some Tesla employees have long believed that the two may eventually merge.

Reports indicate that despite one focusing on space travel and the other on electric vehicles, in recent years, both have been increasingly focused on AI infrastructure development and have been deeply collaborating in terms of computing power, energy, and supply chain. Out of SpaceX's $10.1 billion capital expenditure in the first quarter, over three-quarters were AI-related; Tesla's capital expenditure this year is expected to increase to over $25 billion.

The collaboration between the two companies also includes Tesla's $2 billion investment in xAI, SpaceX purchasing Tesla's Megapack energy storage system to power the Colossus data center, and procuring Cybertrucks, among other ventures. In addition, NVIDIA had previously, at Musk's request, transferred a $500 million GPU order originally designated for Tesla to xAI.

Reports suggest that the two companies have now shared some executives, engineering teams, and supply chain resources, and some suppliers have even begun to see them as a unified customer. The market believes that if the integration is completed in the future, Musk may build a super tech conglomerate covering AI, energy, automotive, space travel, and computing infrastructure.
