Elon Musk has officially launched a new AI service named Grok through his AI company, xAI. Powered by Grok-1, a language model designed to have real-time knowledge of the world and handle various tasks, this innovative service was unveiled on November 4, 2023. Modeled after “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy,” Grok is designed to answer almost any question, even suggesting questions to ask, all while adding a touch of humor with a rebellious streak.
Grok is positioned as a groundbreaking generative AI system, intended to rival OpenAI’s ChatGPT. Initially, Grok will be exclusively available to subscribers of Musk’s social media platform, X. The new chatbot will be released to X’s top-tier subscribers, offering real-time access to the platform.
With Grok, Musk adds another feather to his cap of technological innovations, offering a blend of practical utility and humor in AI interactions. The service aims to redefine the AI chatbot space with its real-time knowledge and witty yet insightful responses.
