According to Reuters, Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) team is promoting its AI chat robot Grok within the U.S. federal government, raising concerns about privacy violations and conflicts of interest. Experts warn that if Grok accesses sensitive government data, it may violate privacy and security regulations. At the same time, Musk's company xAI could gain an unfair advantage in federal contracts or misuse government data to improve its AI systems. DOGE's access to federal databases that contain personal information about millions of Americans has been questioned because of federal rules that require data sharing to be strictly authorized and supervised.
