Sure it does. The problem is that they're not producing any general-purpose AI.

Whether you agree that their work constitutes advances toward more general purpose AI, they're in an industry where that is ostensibly the goal, which makes their choice of mission statement appropriate.

X.ai was founded March 2023. That’s one year three months. Is general AI a good first goal? I think most uses, outside of LLM, will be very specialized AI, and unrelated to chat.
