The most generous interpretation is that the "AI in space" nonsense is a cover for putting limited AI in space for StarShield (military version of StarLink), which is essentially the "Golden Dome".

It might be possible to scam the Pentagon with some talk about AI and killer satellites that take down ICBMs.

Honestly that story sounds right up Pete Hegseth's alley.

Why would they need a cover, though? They can just say “we’re putting AI in space so we can shoot down missiles” and that would be fine.
