After a string of interruptions, Elon Musk says he returns to 24/7 grind to fast: 'Will sleep in server rooms' | Mint
Billionaire Elon Musk said he returned to a 24/7 work schedule to solve problems at X, and would ‘sleep in conference/server/factory rooms’. Social media platform X (formerly Twitter) has faced regular interruptions since the takeover of Musk, which includes nearly 80% of its staff being cut and made a number of other changes. However, the interruptions have become even more frequent over the past few days, with the platform experiencing at least three major disruptions last week. After the latest interruptions, Musk, who recently shifted the focus to help Donald Trump win the US election and later cut to the US federal issues via Doge, now that he will be “super focused” to work at X, Xai and Tesla, while also making a big “operational improvements”. In response to a message about X, Musk wrote: “Back to spend 24/7 at work and sleeping in conference/server/factory rooms.” The richest man in the world added: “I have to be very focused on 𝕏/XAI and Tesla (plus Starship launch next week), since we have critical technologies. As evidenced by the 𝕏 uptime problems this week, major operating improvements should have been made. The Grok 3.5 update of XAI, which is particularly delayed, promised Musk to release the GROK 3.5 update to Xai’s paid subscribers last month, but there has been no update ever since. Grok last received a major update in February when Musk and his team offered a direct session to introduce reasoning and deep search functions to the chatbot, along with their latest boundary model. Since then, Xai seems to fall backwards in the AI race. Openai released an indigenous image-generation feature, along with its O3 and O4 mini reasoning models, GPT-4.1 and the Codex AI agent. Meanwhile, Google unveiled a series of new AI capabilities in twins during the I/O 2025 developer conference.
