Musician Grimes has criticized her ex-partner Elon Musk after he took their four-year-old son X Æ A-12, also known as X, to an Oval Office news conference with Donald Trump. The singer expressed concern that the child should not be in public, and only learned about the event through social media.
X stood beside his father and Trump at the briefing, where he appeared to attempt to address the president. During the questioning session, Mr. Musk answered questions while X interrupted him on occasion. Photographers took pictures of the scene, with President Trump commenting that X is a “great guy” with a high IQ.
Grimes’ son’s unusual name has been explained by his parents. The “X” represents an unknown variable, while “Æ” stands for artificial intelligence and means love in Chinese. The “A-12” is their favorite aircraft. X is one of 13 children born to Elon Musk and Grimes, including Exa Dark Sideræl and Techno Mechanicus.
