Musk's xAI service owns the Grok family of generative AI chatbots, which are available on the X social media platform. Those Grok-based models are now set to join the military's GenAI.mil platform of artificial intelligence tools, which the Pentagon launched earlier this month.
The xAI models will integrate with GenAI.mil in early 2026, according to a Dec. 22 Pentagon press statement.
The Pentagon said xAI's models will allow both uniformed and civilian personnel within the Department of War to securely handle so-called controlled unclassified information in their daily workflows. The term “controlled unclassified informa...
