Bad entity recognition

[ax-va]

How to reproduce the behaviour

import spacy

nlp = spacy.load("en_core_web_sm")
doc = nlp("Elon Musk, owner of Tesla and SpaceX, has offered to buy Twitter (now X) for $21 billion of his own money.")

# For each entity print the text and the entity label
for entity in doc.ents:
    print(entity.text, entity.label_, sep=",")
# Elon Musk,PERSON
# Tesla,ORG
# Twitter,PERSON
# $21 billion,MONEY

Twitter is no person, nothing about SpaceX and X.
