xAI and the Government of El Salvador announced a transformative partnership to develop and deploy a nationwide AI-powered education system over the next two years, making El Salvador the first country to implement personalized AI tutoring across its entire public school system. 

The collaboration will leverage xAI’s Grok model to deliver individualized learning experiences to Salvadoran students across all 5,000+ public schools. The new system will rely on cutting-edge AI as a personalized tool to enable accelerated learning for students, while engaging thousands of teachers as highly motivated partners in the learning process.

A New Model for National Digital Transformation

This partnership represents a pivotal milestone for both El Salvador and xAI.

For El Salvador, the initiative advances the nation from technology adopter to technology architect as the country will co-develop the AI education program alongside xAI and implement a system-wide rollout across urban centers, rural communities, and diverse socio-economic contexts.

For xAI, the collaboration positions the organization as a global leader in large-scale, responsible AI, applying its models, tools, and deployment methodologies across an entire education system, and cementing its capacity to support countries in achieving measurable, system-wide digital transformation.

- Personalized Education for Every Student: By leveraging xAI’s frontier Grok model, the AI Tutor system will deliver exceptional, curriculum-aligned adaptive learning for every Salvadoran student. The model will adjust to each student’s pace, learning preferences, and level of mastery, ensuring world-class educational tutoring for all children, no matter their location or background.

- Best Practices and Truth-Seeking AI: As co-developers, xAI and El Salvador will generate validated methodologies, datasets, and regulatory practices to guide global AI-education deployments and establish the governance, auditing, and safety frameworks required for the responsible use of AI in classrooms. Engineered as a maximally truth-seeking AI companion, Grok delivers insightful answers prioritizing truth and objectivity. Above all, the digital ecosystem will be designed with careful attention to local contexts, real-world complexity, and the human dimensions essential for sustainable adoption and impact.

El Salvador doesn’t just wait for the future to happen; we build it, said Nayib Bukele, President of El Salvador. From establishing the global standard in security to now pioneering AI-driven education, El Salvador proves that nations can leapfrog directly to the top through bold policy and strategic vision. With xAI as the leader in frontier models and El Salvador as a testbed for innovation, this partnership is destined to deliver something rather extraordinary for all of humanity.”

 “By partnering with President Bukele to bring Grok to every student in El Salvador, we’re putting the most advanced AI directly in the hands of an entire generation,” said Elon Musk, Founder & CEO xAI. ”El Salvador isn’t waiting for the future of education — they’re building it with xAI.”
