Elon Musk has officially confirmed the upcoming release of xAI’s first AI chatbot, Grok. It is scheduled for availability to X Premium+ subscribers next week. Musk revealed that Grok, developed by a team of engineers with experience from Google, OpenAI, and Deep Mind, offers distinct features, setting it apart from prominent large language models like ChatGPT and Bard.

Grok is based on a knowledge base known as ‘The Pile’ and trained on data from X. It boasts capabilities such as real-time information access, unbiased news delivery, and a touch of humor and sarcasm in its responses. It incorporates image and audio recognition features, distinguishing it from ChatGPT.

Spectacular Features of Grok:

Some standout features of Grok include a 25,000-character context window, a live search engine based on X, swift response times, and compatibility with Tesla vehicles. While surpassing OpenAI’s GPT-3.5 in benchmarks, Grok appears to be slightly less capable than GPT-4, which powers Microsoft Copilot.

Elon Musk’s announcement on Twitter highlighted the availability of Grok for all X Premium+ subscribers starting next week. This move is expected to contribute to the growth of X’s premium subscriber count, addressing a challenge the company has been grappling with recently.
