The son does not want to call her “mom”

Tesla founder Elon Musk (50) and artist Claire Elise “Grimes” Boucher (33) often stand out in the crowd with their unconventional choices and statements.

Especially then the two had their first child together last year they attracted attention. The baby name X Æ A-12 Xii Musk has led to a lot of itching. The background for the name therefore had to be explained by the parents.

«X, the unknown variable. Æ, my elvish spelling for Ai (love and / or artificial intelligence). A-12 = precursor to SR-17 (our favorite aircraft). No weapons, no defense, just speed. Great in battle, but not violent “, Grimes wrote on Twitter at the time.

The son uses the first name

X has now turned 16 months, and Grimes is now coming up with an update on what life as a mother of small children is like.

– Being a mother feels strange for some reason. I do not identify with that word, which is also very strange because X, he says “Claire”, but not “mom”, she says to Vogue in connection with the Met gala.

The 33-year-old believes that the son may notice that she is not completely comfortable with the term.

– Maybe he feels that I dislike the word “mother”. I do not even know why I do not like it, because I respect it, but I just can not identify with it, strangely enough, she continues.

Grimes, however, makes no secret of the fact that she is looking forward to her new life, and that having a son has changed her life.

– I think having a baby was a rebirth for me, artistically, she says.

Appeared alone

She appeared alone on the red carpet during the Met gala this time. However, it was at the same event that she and Musk appeared together in public for the first time. The two became known via Twitter.

Musk was supposed to tweet something related to artificial intelligence, but discovered that Grimes had tweeted a message about the same thing – three years earlier. The message he intended to tweet was about a thought experiment called “Roko´s Basilisk”, in which it is envisioned that artificial intelligence will take control of the world.

Musk har tpreviously warned against artificial intelligence and called it an “immortal dictator from whom we can never escape.”

He wanted to make a pun on “Rococo Basilica”, which plays on the era that followed the Baroque in the early 18th century. But Grimes had already used the term. Thus, he made contact.

– Grimes said that this was the first time in three years someone understood her joke.
