Elon Musk’s xAI Teams Up with Kalshi for Real-Money Predictions

Elon Musk's AI startup xAI is collaborating with regulated prediction market Kalshi to integrate its chatbot Grok into real-money event forecasting.

Key points of the partnership include:

Grok will analyze news, historical data, and economic indicators in real-time.
Kalski allows traders to bet on outcomes like Federal Reserve interest rate decisions and monthly inflation figures.
The collaboration aims to provide users with a competitive edge through Grok's rapid information summarization.
The specifics of Grok's integration were not disclosed, but significant engineering resources are reportedly being committed to the project.
This partnership adds complexity to xAI's strategy, which previously included Polymarket as an official prediction market partner.
The current setup positions both Kalshi and Polymarket under Musk's influence, testing Grok's capabilities across different regulatory environments.

Grok's latest version, Grok 4, was recently launched, featuring upgrades in reasoning and information retrieval.
