SpaceX is in talks with the U.S. Department of Defense about providing billions of dollars’ worth of computing power for artificial intelligence models, according to a Wall Street Journal report cited by BlockBeats. People familiar with the matter said the discussions are ongoing and could still fall apart, but the proposal would deepen ties between Elon Musk’s company and the Pentagon if completed.
The report also said SpaceX has signed similar agreements with Anthropic and Google in recent months and is preparing a major expansion of its cloud computing business. In recent weeks, employees have also discussed offering compute capacity to AI customers at lower prices, a move that would put SpaceX in more direct competition with existing providers such as CoreWeave.
