Musk's xAI to enable chatbot Grok for all premium subscribers of X
Quick Glance: New Availability of Grok AI Announced for X Premium Subscribers
  • Elon Musk has officially announced that Grok, the AI chatbot from Musk's xAI, is now accessible to all X Premium users. Previously, Grok was exclusively available to X Premium+ subscribers.

  • In March of this year, xAI took a significant step by releasing Grok as an open-source project. This move enables developers and researchers to leverage the powerful 'weights and architecture' behind xAI's Grok chatbot for their projects at no cost.

  • The release of Grok is under the Apache 2.0 license, allowing commercial use. Reports indicate that Grok is now available on GitHub, allowing anyone to freely experiment with the 'raw' basic version of the pre-trained Grok big language models.

  • Grok, the 'conversational AI for understanding the universe,' was first introduced to the public at the end of 2023. The Grok chatbot can access real-time X data, which sets it apart from competitors, aiming to establish itself as a more modern and edgy alternative to other chatbots.
