Elon Musk on On Thursday, he presented Grok 4, the latest AI model from XAI, his multi -billion initiative, which is to compete with OpenAI and Google. Not citing detailed evidence, Musk claimed that model ACE standardized tests and shows knowledge at a doctoral level in a wide range of various disciplines.
“Grok 4 is at the postgraduate level in everything,” said Musk during An hour live broadcastwhich began after midnight in Novel York. “At least in relation to academic questions, GROK 4 is better than a doctoral level in every topic. No exceptions.”
Xai did not immediately answer at the request for a comment from Wired about whether he was planning to publish an official technical report on the subject of Grok 4 describing its capabilities and restrictions. Competitive AI programmers, such as Opeli and Google, routinely published similar publications for their models.
Users can access Grok 4 via a website or GROK application for 30 USD per month. Access to a larger version known as Grok 4 Bulky costs $ 300 per month. Later this year, XAI is aimed at releasing additional models that are suitable for software and video generation coding tasks, according to the Thursday presentation.
Musk, who is the general director of XAI, did not refer to the recent criticism of Grok. Over the past few days, the version of the artificial intelligence built into the social media platform x Musk praised Adolf Hitler and gave anti -Semitic answers to many hints from X. In response XAI, which is the owner of X, he announced on Tuesday that he was taking action to “prohibit hatred before GROK on X.” On Wednesday, Linda Yaccarino, general director X, announced that he was leaving the company without developing his reasoning or plans.
During the Thursday live broadcast, Musk said that, according to his “biological neural network”, AI systems should be optimized “as maximum search for truth” and encourage “to be truthful, honorary, good things – like the values that you want to vaccinate a child who would eventually grow up as incredibly powerful.”
Musk co -founded XAI in 2023. After Opeli issued ChatgPT and caused an raise in investments in AI generative technologies, which can automatically produce text, code, audio, images and films. Xai launched the first version of Grok in November this year, and Grok 2 debuted in August last year. Grok 3, which was released in February last year, is available for free.
Musk said that the grok was designed to feel rumors and rebellious. On its website, XAI claims that his mission is to create exact AI systems and assist people get knowledge.
On Thursday, the product announcement overdue in the evening began over an hour behind the schedule and Musk sitting on the couch with two colleagues XAI appeared in front of the gloomy background. The trio boasted the possibilities of grok, displaying slides that were aimed at showing how the model exceeds other AI programs. But Musk also decided that he still had significant weaknesses.
“These are still primitive tools, not tools used by serious commercial companies,” he said.
Musk predicted that Grok would discover novel technologies next year, if not only this year. However, he said: “Sometimes he may not have common sense and has not yet invented new technologies or discovered new physics.”
