xAI day digits

Recorded
Calendar-digit play on xAI’s founding date 12 July 2023
On 12 July 2023 he announced xAI and posted the sum himself: 7 + 12 + 23 = 42. Adams is named in the same breath. Digit play, authored in public.
What it supports
A dated public utterance. The screenshot on the post writes the arithmetic. Same method later noticed on 8 + 13 + 21. He authored the July sum. He did not author the August one.
What it does not
Not a secret founding code for every date that sums to 42. Many dates can. This one is public because he wrote it.
Calculation
