Musk’s Grok to be integrated with Kalshi prediction platform
Elon Musk has taken a leading role in online prediction markets as his AI firm xAI announced the integration of its AI chatbot Grok with Kalshi on Thursday.
This follows a similar xAI agreement with Polymarket in June, its first partnership in this area, showing Musk’s growing reach in the market.
Kalshi, the company that got a lot of attention with a made-with-AI commercial during this year’s NBA Finals, said Grok will join its platform to offer context on price shifts and help users understand market movements. The AI-built spot aired during the Finals and grabbed attention for its technical feat.
The company said the chatbot will explain changes and highlight key trends.
When asked if these episodes raised concerns, a Kalshi spokesperson said, “Kalshi’s feelings about the partnership are excitement only.”
Prediction markets operate like betting sites, showing real-time odds depending on how much money people risk on outcomes. They let users wager on events such as elections and natural disasters.
