Investors familiar with the matter told The Wall Street Journal that the rocket company SpaceX has agreed to invest a whopping $2 billion in xAI, the Musk-led firm behind the controversial large language model Grok. This investment makes up almost half of the $5 billion of equity that the AI company raised last month.

The money behind Elon Musk’s trillion-dollar empire is increasingly flowing in one direction: toward artificial intelligence.

Grok’s pro-Hitler ranting didn't disqualify it from a $200 million defense contract. With Pete Hegseth running the DoD, why would it?

The billionaire entrepreneur said Tesla shareholders would vote on investing in xAI as he seeks to tap his own companies to help fund his artificial-intelligence startup.

SpaceX is investing $2 billion in xAI, Elon Musk's AI company, as part of a $5 billion equity round, amid his efforts to boost the AI startup.

The Department of Defense under Secretary Pete Hegseth has been fixated on buzzwords like “warfighting” and “warfighters,” and adopting new AI tools is part of that mission, according to leaders at the agency. And Monday’s press release was filled to the brim with similarly grandiose language.

The announcement of the $200 million contract to xAI comes less than a week after Grok came under fire for sharing antisemitic comments.

Just days ago, xAI had to briefly suspend the AI tool because users found it was giving Nazi-friendly answers to questions like praising dictator Adolf Hitler and blaming Jews for various global

The announcement comes after FedScoop reported on the General Services Administration’s interest in the tool late last week.

The xAI founder said the very notion humans actually once managed an economy will seem very quaint in the future, like 'cavemen throwing sticks into a fire'.

Investments into xAI would help Grok better compete with OpenAI's ChatGPT by increasing capital toward research and development.
