Devendra Chaplot 宣布加入 SpaceX 和 xAI，直接跟 Musk 合作。 x.com/dchaplot/statu…
这人履历很强。CMU 机器学习博士，IIT Bombay 本科，先在 Meta FAIR 做机器人视觉导航研究，Google Scholar 引用近 14000 次。后来加入 Mistral AI 创始团队，参与训练了 Mistral 7B、Mixtral 8x7B 等核心模型，还领导了多模态团队做出 Pixtral 系列。
去年 2 月他加入了 Thinking Machines Lab（TML）的创始团队，就是 OpenAI 前 CTO Mira Murati 出来创办的那家公司，120 亿美元估值，团队里有 OpenAI 联合创始人 John Schulman、前 VP Lilian Weng 等人。现在从 TML 跳到 xAI。
他在推文里说"结合物理智能和数字智能"，他本身就是做机器人导航出身，研究的就是让 AI 在真实物理环境中自主行动。SpaceX 做火箭和卫星，xAI 做大模型，他的背景刚好卡在两者交叉的位置。Show More

I'm joining SpaceX and xAI, working closely with Elon and team to build superintelligence.
Together SpaceX and xAI combine physical and digital intelligence under a leader who understands hardware at the deepest level. Add a high-agency culture with frontier-scale resources, and you get the possibility to achieve something truly unique.
I’m excited to advance the fields I’ve obsessed over for years, from robotics research to building AI models on the founding teams of Mistral and TML. Both were extraordinary journeys with extraordinary people that shaped how I think about building intelligence from the ground up.
Grateful for everything that brought me here and can’t wait to get started.Show More

One Sentence Summary
Devendra Chaplot, former founding member of Mistral AI and core member of TML, announces joining Elon Musk's team, focused on combining physical and digital intelligence.
Summary
Veteran AI researcher Devendra Chaplot announced he is joining SpaceX and xAI, reporting directly to Elon Musk. Chaplot boasts an exceptionally distinguished resume: a Ph.D. in Machine Learning from CMU, a former researcher at Meta FAIR, a founding team member of Mistral AI (involved in training Mistral 7B and Mixtral series), and subsequently joined Thinking Machines Lab (TML), founded by Mira Murati. His background combines robotics visual navigation with large language model training, and his addition signals Musk's strategic ambition to integrate autonomous action in the physical world (SpaceX/robotics) with cutting-edge large models (xAI).
