Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company, xAI, has officially announced the testing of its new AI bot, Grok. The bot is currently being tested with a limited group of U.S. users and is designed to rival ChatGPT, a popular AI model developed by OpenAI. Grok is expected to be available to all X Premium+ users after testing, although there is no public timeline for when it will exit beta.

Grok is designed to answer questions with a bit of wit and has a rebellious streak, reflecting Musk's own humor. The bot uses data from Musk's X, formerly Twitter, to stay updated on the latest developments. This real-time access to information via the X platform is seen as a significant advantage over other models.

However, xAI acknowledges that Grok, like any Large Language Model, can still generate false or contradictory information. Despite this, initial tests suggest that Grok surpasses all other models in its compute class, but is outperformed by bots with larger data sets.

Musk appears to be positioning xAI as a competitor to companies like OpenAI, Inflection, and Anthropic. This comes after Musk has previously signed a petition calling for a pause in advancing AI models to develop shared safety protocols.
