What Happened: Earlier this week, Musk gave his 191 million X followers a chance to weigh in on the possible expenditure by placing a yes-no survey on the platform on Tuesday.
發生了什麼：本週早些時候，馬斯克在週二的平台上發佈了一個是非調查，讓他的1.91億個追隨者有機會對可能的支出進行權衡。
"Should Tesla invest $5B into xAI, assuming the valuation is set by several credible outside investors?" Musk asked.
馬斯克問道："假設數個可信的外部投資者設定了估值，特斯拉是否應該投資50億美元到xAI？"
He also wrote "Board approval & shareholder vote are needed, so this is just to test the waters" in parentheses.
他還在括號中寫道，"需要董事會批准和股東投票，所以這只是爲了試探。"
About 67.9% of 958,086 voters approved the idea by the next day. And Musk indicated that he plans to discuss the heavy investment with his seven fellow Tesla board members.
到第二天，958,086名投票者中有約67.9%的人贊成這個想法。馬斯克表示他打算與他的七位特斯拉董事會成員討論這項巨額投資。
