Senator Warren presses Pentagon over xAI classified network access
Senator Elizabeth Warren pressed the Pentagon over its decision to grant xAI access to classified military networks, TechCrunch reported. Warren sent a letter to the Department of Defense questioning the security vetting process applied to Elon Musk's AI company.
Warren cited concerns about Musk's business ties to China through Tesla and his public behavior as potential security risks. The letter requested documentation of the clearance process that led to xAI's access.
The inquiry comes amid broader congressional scrutiny of Musk's expanding role in government technology contracts.
