Elon Musk launches AI chatbot ‘Grok,’ says it can outperform ChatGPT


Elon Musk and his artificial intelligence (AI) startup xAI have released “Grok” — an AI chatbot that can supposedly outperform OpenAI’s first iteration of ChatGPT in several academic tests.

The motivation behind building Grok is to create AI tools equipped to assist humanity by empowering research and innovation, Musk and xAI explained in a Nov. 5 X (formerly Twitter) post.


Musk and the xAI team said a “unique and fundamental advantage” possessed by Grok is that it has real-time knowledge of the world via the X platform.

“It will also answer spicy questions that are rejected by most other AI systems,” Musk and xAI said. "Grok is designed to answer questions with a bit of wit and has a rebellious streak, so please don’t use it if you hate humor!"

The engine powering Grok — Grok-1 — was evaluated in several academic tests in mathematics and coding, performing better than ChatGPT-3.5 in all tests, according to data shared by xAI.



It is only surpassed by models that were trained with a significantly larger amount of training data and compute resources like GPT-4, Musk and xAI said. “This showcases the rapid progress we are making at xAI in training LLMs with exceptional efficiency.”


The AI startup noted that Grok will be accessible on X Premium Plus at $16 per month. But for now, it is only offered to a limited number of users in the United States.

Grok still remains a “very early beta product,” which should improve rapidly by the week, xAI noted.

Note: Twitter is now worth half of the $44B Elon Musk paid for it:

The xAI team said they will also implement more safety measures over time to ensure Grok isn’t used maliciously.
