Pentagon Deploys Grok Despite Safety Warnings. Federal agencies including the NSA and GSA flagged xAI's Grok chatbot as vulnerable to data poisoning and overly compliant before the Pentagon approved its use in classified settings. The decision sparked the resignation of the Defense Department's chief of responsible AI, who cited concerns that safety protocols were being deprioritized. The deployment follows President Trump's ban on Anthropic after its CEO refused to weaken AI safeguards for military surveillance. Market analysts expect Alphabet and Microsoft-backed OpenAI to capitalize on the federal vacuum, positioning their own models for classified military contracts. The shift underscores growing tensions between national security and rapid AI deployment in defense operations.
