SpaceX 已推出“超级智能合作伙伴网络”,面向部署或基于 Grok 构建应用的企业,Apollo、Nvidia、Snowflake、Databricks、Bain 等 130 多家公司率先加入。此前一个季度,SpaceX 的 AI 部门实现盈利,主要靠出租算力。

SpaceX has launched the Super Intelligence Partner Network for companies that deploy or build on Grok, with Apollo, Nvidia, Snowflake, Databricks, Bain and more than 130 firms joining early. It follows a quarter in which SpaceX’s AI unit turned a profit, mostly from renting out computing power.

据彭博社周四报道,SpaceX 推出合作伙伴计划,帮助企业使用其 Grok AI。Apollo Global Management、Nvidia 及 130 多家其他公司率先签约。

SpaceX has launched a partner programme to help businesses use its Grok AI, Bloomberg reported on Thursday. Apollo Global Management, Nvidia and more than 130 other companies signed up early.

SpaceX 表示,“超级智能合作伙伴网络”成员包括数据公司 Snowflake 和 Databricks,以及咨询公司 Bain & Company 和 Booz Allen Hamilton。部分合作伙伴将帮助企业在全业务范围推广 Grok;其他合作伙伴将开发插件,把 Grok 与客户已在使用的工具连接起来。

The Super Intelligence Partner Network includes data firms Snowflake and Databricks and consultancies Bain & Company and Booz Allen Hamilton, SpaceX said. Some partners will help companies roll out Grok across their business. Others will build plugins that link Grok to tools customers already use.

合作伙伴可获得培训和支持,其员工还可参加 SpaceX 的“前沿部署工程师”课程,这类工程师直接驻场在客户公司工作。提供此类工程师的公司 Galatiq 也是成员之一。

Partners get training and support, and their staff can take SpaceX’s course for “forward deployed engineers”, who work inside customer companies. Galatiq, a firm that supplies such engineers, is among the members.

这一举措在 SpaceX 宣布其 AI 部门营收超越 Starlink 几天后推出。彭博社称,该部门在第三季度实现盈利,主要得益于在孟菲斯数据中心出租算力,而非销售 Grok。

The push comes days after SpaceX said its AI unit had overtaken Starlink in revenue. The unit also turned a profit in the third quarter, mostly from renting out computing power at its Memphis data centres rather than from selling Grok, Bloomberg said.

不过,Grok 的企业级应用正在增长。SpaceX 总裁 Gwynne Shotwell 周二在财报电话会上表示,8 月推出的 AI 代理 Grok Bot 在 10 月拥有超过 80 万付费周活用户,较上月翻倍。

Grok’s business use is growing, though. Grok Bot, the AI agent it launched in August, had more than 800,000 paying weekly users in October. That is double the month before, SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell said on Tuesday’s earnings call.

Shotwell 说:“企业‘越来越多地将 Grok Bot 作为倍增器应用于销售、市场、IT 和工程领域,把它视为一个随时在线的队友,处理复杂的端到端工作流。’”SpaceX 在向企业销售 AI 方面长期落后于 OpenAI 和 Anthropic。路透社 5 月报道称,Grok 在美国联邦机构中鲜有建树。本月初,Musk 表示,当 Anthropic 的 Claude 表现更好时,Grok Bot 也会调用它。

Companies are “increasingly using Grok Bot as a force multiplier across sales, marketing, IT and engineering, treating it as an always-on teammate for complex end-to-end workflows,” Shotwell said. SpaceX has long trailed OpenAI and Anthropic in selling AI to businesses. In May, Reuters reported that Grok had made little headway with US federal agencies. Earlier this month, Musk said Grok Bot would also tap Anthropic’s Claude when it gives better results.

SpaceX 此后已完成一项价值 600 亿美元的交易,收购编程初创公司 Cursor。该公司还依赖与埃隆·马斯克关系密切的企业。据彭博社报道,阿波罗全球管理公司是最早测试 Grok 的华尔街机构之一,此前它曾协助为 SpaceX 的 AI 部门融资采购芯片。

SpaceX has since closed a $60B deal for coding startup Cursor. It has also leaned on companies close to Elon Musk. Apollo was among the first Wall Street firms to test Grok, after it helped finance chips for SpaceX’s AI unit, Bloomberg has reported.
