The Pentagon has signed a multimillion -dollar deal to start using Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence, as part of a broader deployment of AI tools for the government, the Ministry of Defense confirmed.
Announced on Monday by Moscow XAI company, a 200 million dollar contract (149 million pounds) is part of the Grok for the Government program and corresponds to the pressure of the Trump administration to more aggressively accepting artificial intelligence.
This only happens a few days after Grok has caused a backlash for throwing out anti -Semitic posts, including praise for Adolf Hitler on X, a social media platform belonging to Musk.
Musk said the bot was “too compatible” and “too strive to please.” He said the issue is resolved.
XAI Musk says that New Deal will give us the state agencies access to Grok 4, the latest Chatbot version, and offers custom tools to use national security.
The company also plans to provide technical support for secret conditions.
Pentagon also announced the reward of similar anthropic, Google and Openai contracts – each of the $ 200 million ceiling.
“The adoption of the Second Committee transforms the Department’s ability to support our military figures and maintain a strategic advantage over our opponents,” said the chief digital administration and the Meti AI officer.
The expansion of government partnership Musk comes against the background of deterioration with President Donald Trump.
Boss Tesla and SpaceX spent a quarter billion dollars on Trump’s efforts in 2024 and actively agitated for it.
It was later intended to manage the Department of Government Effectiveness (DOGE) – a federal initiative to reduce the cost of the US government.
But in recent months, Musk began to openly criticize that Trump called a “big beautiful bill”, widespread legislation on costs and tax reduction, which, according to Boss Tesla, was too expensive for Americans.
Musk resigned from his post to Dogel in May, although the department was not officially dissolved.
Since then, Trump has suggested that the dog could be deployed to harm Musk companies.
Trump also suggested that he could deport Musk, who is an American citizen and born in South Africa. It also has Canada’s citizenship.
While at the steering wheel, the White House was criticized for allowing Musk to have unlimited access to the grass of state data on American citizens.
Despite the departure, Musi XAI continues to expand its state work. Its recently announced contract can also create avenue for this data collection.
Grok was presented at the end of 2023 as a more unspecified alternative to other AI chatbots like chatgpt. It has already been integrated into the Musk X social media platform, previously known as Twitter.
