Elon Musk just confirmed that Grok, the AI chatbot built by his company xAI, is coming to Tesla cars “very soon”—possibly by next week. This update came hours after the launch of Grok 4, xAI’s latest AI model. Musk says Tesla drivers will be able to talk to their cars and ask Grok to do tasks. Firmware leaks also reveal Grok comes with wild personality modes like “therapist,” “conspiracy,” and even “NSFW.” However, it’ll only work in newer Teslas with Hardware 3. Grok will also power Tesla’s humanoid robot, Optimus.

Varda Space just raised a whopping $187 million to take drug-making to the next level—literally. The company’s planning to produce key pharma ingredients in space, where zero gravity helps with things like crystallizing proteins. A new 10,000 sq. ft. lab in California will be planning which biologics should be sent to orbit. Varda’s already completed 3 space missions and aims for 4 more this year. They’re also building spacecraft in-house now and testing hypersonic tech for the U.S. military. The big goal? Solve tricky pharma problems and license out high-value patents.
