Elon Musk's xAI To Simulate Software Giants Like Microsoft, Calling It 'Macrohard'

Elon Musk has announced plans to simulate software companies such as Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) using artificial intelligence (AI).

What Happened: Musk’s AI firm, xAI, is said to be creating an AI-only software company named “Macrohard.”

Musk characterized the project as “very real”, implying that software companies like Microsoft, which do not produce physical hardware, could theoretically be entirely simulated using AI.

Join @xAI and help build a purely AI software company called Macrohard. It's a tongue-in-cheek name, but the project is very real!

In principle, given that software companies like Microsoft do not themselves manufacture any physical hardware, it should be possible to simulateâ€¦
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) August 22, 2025

While Musk did not divulge more details, a document from the United States Patent and Trademark Office shows that a trademark for “Macrohard” was filed by xAI on August 1.

The application outlines a broad range of AI-centric goods and services for Macrohard, including downloadable computer software for the artificial generation of human speech and text, and for designing, coding, running, and playing video games using AI.

Why It Matters: The establishment of Macrohard is the latest addition to Musk’s diverse portfolio of enterprises, which includes Tesla Inc., xAI, X Corp, The Boring Company, SpaceX, and Neuralink.

This development is in line with Musk’s thrust into AI and robotics. He has previously advocated for Tesla’s investment in xAI and has underscored projects like robotaxis and humanoid robots.

This move could potentially revolutionize the software industry, as it challenges the traditional model of software development. By simulating software companies with AI, Musk’s xAI could potentially create more efficient, autonomous, and innovative software solutions.
