Tech giants SpaceX, OpenAI, Saronic, and Scale AI are in talks with Palantir and Anduril to form a defense tech consortium that aims to challenge the dominance of established players like Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, and Boeing. The goal is to provide new generations of defense contractors and offer cutting-edge technology to the US government.
Initial partnerships could be announced as early as January, according to reports. This move comes after Palantir and Anduril hinted at a partnership earlier this month with an integration announcement between their AI platforms. The companies claim to be “launching a new consortium to ensure that the US government leads the world in artificial intelligence.”
