Musk’s DOGE expanding his Grok AI in US government, raising conflict concerns

  • Elon Musk's team known as DOGE is increasing the deployment of the Grok AI chatbot across U.S. Federal agencies to assist with data analysis as of May 2025.
  • This expansion follows efforts to use Grok, developed by Musk's xAI, despite Grok lacking formal approval and raising concerns about bypassing established data protections.
  • DOGE staff reportedly encouraged Department of Homeland Security officials to use Grok, although DHS denied pressure, amid warnings that the chatbot's use risks exposing sensitive federal data.
  • Legal and privacy experts warn that using Grok on federal data could violate conflict-of-interest laws by benefiting Musk financially and compromise the privacy of millions of Americans.
  • The Grok deployment highlights tensions between AI integration in government efficiency and safeguarding confidential information, suggesting potential legal challenges and policy reviews ahead.
