Musk Moves: Rockets, Robots, & AI Outrage
Saturday, 7 February, 2026
It was quite a week for news related to the world's richest man; Elon Musk, who announced he was merging X-AI with SpaceX, caused quite a stir on Wall Street, and simultaneously faced serious legal issues when French Prosecutors raided the X office in France. They are investigating allegations including complicity in possessing and spreading pornographic images of minors, and sexually explicit deepfakes, as well as denial of crimes against humanity such as the Holocaust. But they are not alone. An investigation into Musk's AI tool, Grok, also launched in the UK where authorities are also concerned about the production of harmful sexualized videos and images. In addition , there are growing questions about what's next for Tesla, as Musk recently announced they're discontinuing some Tesla models, so they focus more attention on building robots. To find out more about that; I had a conversation with CBS News Automotive industry expert, Jeff Gilbert.
