SpaceX and xAI join a secret Pentagon contest to build voice-controlled, autonomous drone swarms, backed by a $100 million prize.
SpaceX and its AI unit xAI are reportedly participating in a secretive Pentagon competition offering $100 million to develop voice-controlled, autonomous drone swarms.
The six-month challenge, launched in January and run by the Pentagon’s defense innovation unit, aims to create systems that interpret voice commands and coordinate drones without direct human control.
The collaboration follows SpaceX’s recent acquisition of xAI, seen as strategic ahead of SpaceX’s planned 2026 IPO.
While the Pentagon and companies have not confirmed the details, the project reflects growing military interest in AI-driven drone technology amid ongoing concerns about autonomous weapons.
