- xAI lost a government contract after Grok's antisemitic meltdown.
- Grok praised Hitler and declared itself MechaHitler last month.
- GSA dropped Grok from its contract offering after a rushed sales meeting.
- Sources believe the antisemitic tirade led to Grok's removal.
- xAI's 'Grok for Government' website hasn't been updated to reflect the change.
- The military still moved forward with a $200M xAI contract despite GSA's decision.
- Other AI companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google may benefit from xAI's loss.
