Ammon News - The founder of the American company SpaceX, Elon Musk, plans to send robots with artificial intelligence to Mars in November 2026. He made the announcement on the social network X, Azernews reports.

According to Musk, a trip between Earth and Mars is possible approximately once every 26 months. The next opportunity for such a mission will occur around November 2026.

"If everything goes well, SpaceX will send Starship rockets to Mars, along with autonomous robots and artificial intelligence Grok," he said.

On February 18, Musk introduced a new, more advanced version of the chatbot from his company xAI, called Grok-3. In tests, Grok-3 outperformed GPT-4, Claude 3.5, Sonnet, Gemini-2 Pro, and DeepSeek-V3 in areas such as mathematics, programming, and scientific computing.

Earlier this month, it was reported that Musk supported sending an expedition to Mars to investigate a "square structure" observed in NASA images. Some consider this structure to be a natural formation, while conspiracy theorists believe it may be evidence of an alien civilization.
