SpaceX is in talks with the Defense Department to provide access to data-center capacity worth billions of dollars for running artificial-intelligence models. The proposed arrangement would support the Pentagon’s expanding artificial intelligence efforts and deepen SpaceX’s role in U.S. defense technology.
The capacity under discussion would be used to run large-scale AI workloads. No contract value or timeline has been disclosed. The talks remain preliminary and no final agreement has been reached. SpaceX already supplies launch services and satellite communications to the department.
The current discussions would extend that relationship into data-center infrastructure.
