'Much Like Apple': Elon Musk's "Macrohard" Project Will Take a Leaf Out of Cupertino's Book as It Takes on Microsoft...
Elon Musk announced “Macrohard,” a new xAI initiative to build an AI‑driven software and platform ecosystem that sets standards, licenses software and defines system requirements while outsourcing physical manufacturing to partners much like Apple. Backed by xAI’s Colossus supercomputer and promoted as able to “do anything short of manufacturing physical objects directly,” the project signals an expansion of xAI from model development into broader computing and platform services. Observers say Macrohard positions Musk to challenge Microsoft’s platform dominance by creating a software‑first, partner‑manufactured stack that could reshape supply chains and competitive dynamics in AI and device ecosystems.
