Yes. On September 28, 2026, New York City Council Speaker Julie Menin issued a subpoena compelling Elon Musk’s SpaceXAI to send a representative to testify at a Council Committee of the Whole hearing on AI safety risks scheduled for October 5, 2026. The Council said SpaceXAI was the only major AI firm among those invited that had not responded to its inquiry, while Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and Meta had agreed to appear.
The hearing will examine risks to public safety, cybersecurity, and consumers, and review proposed safeguards. If SpaceXAI does not comply, the Council said it may seek judicial enforcement in New York State Supreme Court. Source: New York City Council press release.
