According to Sawyer Merritt on Twitter, Elon Musk stated in a recent interview that his involvement in politics has generally ended badly and that he intends to avoid political engagement in the future, describing politics as a 'blood sport.' For the AI industry, this stance reduces potential regulatory distractions for Musk-led companies like xAI and Tesla, allowing greater focus on core artificial intelligence development and innovation. By prioritizing engineering and business growth over political debate, Musk’s approach may accelerate the deployment of next-generation AI models and autonomous systems, benefiting enterprise users and the broader technology ecosystem (source: Sawyer Merritt, Twitter, Nov 30, 2025).
