Obfuscating the dire financial state that X is now in by absorbing it into his AI company which is doing comparatively well. It's largely PR. But probably means X will descend further into being a bot-platform (more than it already has, which is a lot).

People (especially younger generation, people under 20-ish) are already getting wise to AI-generated propaganda though and can spot it a mile off ; it's a game with a very, very limited lifespan at this point. Social Media era already showing signs of obsolescence.
