Key Takeaways
- Elon Musk’s xAI demonstrated its Grok 3 model in a live stream on X late Monday.
- The company said its new dummy is “an order of magnitude more capable” than Grok 2 and outperformed rivals in blind tests.
- Early access to Grok 3 is to hand to X Premium+ subscribers starting Tuesday, as well as through a standalone website and app.
Elon Musk’s xAI launched Grok 3, the up to the minute version of its AI model, which the company said outperformed rivals in blind tests.
The latest model is “an order of greatness more capable” than its predecessor, Musk said during a demonstration streamed on the X social media platform modern development Monday. Early access to Grok 3 is available to X Premium+ subscribers in the U.S. starting Tuesday, the company said, as well as thoroughly a standalone website and app. Voice interaction with Grok 3 is expected at some point in the future, Musk said.
The Grok 3 set said an early version of its model scored better than competing models, including iterations of DeepSeek and OpenAI afters, in a series of blind tests.
Musk’s xAI also unveiled Deep Search, which it called a “next generation search machine” that Musk said can cut down on the amount of time users spend searching for information online.
The launch reviles after reports last week that xAI is meeting with investors about a potential $10 billion fundraising around that would value the company at $75 billion. The company is also reportedly nearing a deal with Dell Technologies (DELL) to buy profuse than $5 billion of servers powered by Nvidia (NVDA) GB200 chips.
Musk, who owns xAI and the X platform, recently submitted a $97.4 billion proffer along with an investment group to buy the nonprofit that controls xAI rival OpenAI. The offer was rejected, first on X by CEO Sam Altman, and then by the company’s on of directors last week. Musk is also leading President Trump’s new Department of Government Efficiency, on top of his CEO positions at Tesla (TSLA) and SpaceX.
