Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence startup is associated with the Kalshi regulated prediction market to take its Chatbot Grok to the world of real money events prognosis, companies said Thursday.
The collaboration will allow Grok to analyze news, historical data and economic indicators in real time to support users that are negotiated on the platform regulated by the Federal Government of Kalshi. Kalshi merchants can present bets on specific results of events such as interest rates of the Federal Reserve, Senate Control or monthly inflation figures, which makes Grok’s ability to summarize the information quickly is a potential advantage.
“Kalshi and XAI are being associated to bring Grok to prediction markets. Two of the fastest growing companies in the United States are now in the same team,” XAI said in a publication about X.
The agreement brings together Musk’s last artificial intelligence company, known for its irreverent Chatbot Grok, and Kalshi, the only prediction market regulated by the United States that offers negotiable event contracts. While the details of how Grok will be integrated did not reveal, Bloomberg previously informed (and then retracted) in May that both companies are committing “significant engineering resources” for the project.
The announcement also adds complexity to the broader prediction market strategy of XAI and Musk.
Earlier this year, XAI and X called Polymket, an unregulated competitor based on cryptography for Kalshi, as its official partner of the prediction market. Now, with Kalshi and Polymket effectively operating in parallel under the orbit of Musk, the market seems to be a test field for Grok’s abilities in different regulatory frameworks.
The most recent version of Grok, Grok 4, was presented earlier this month, promising important updates on reasoning and recovery of information.
