GoKawiilAmerica.gov chatbot launches using Google Gemini and xAI's Grok
The Trump administration launched America.gov, a government website featuring an AI chatbot to help Americans navigate federal services. U.S. Chief Design Officer Joe Gebbia said the tool runs on AI models from Google's Gemini and Elon Musk's xAI, maker of Grok. The site went live around 10 a.m. ET Tuesday, and neither Google nor xAI immediately responded to requests for comment.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Gebbia noted that 40 million people daily try to use government websites, suggesting the administration sees AI as a way to modernize a frequently criticized digital experience. The involvement of Musk's xAI, given his prior role advising the administration on government efficiency, could raise questions about ties between private tech firms and public infrastructure. The partnership also signals growing reliance on multiple competing AI providers within a single government platform.
