Elon Musk’s xAI releases Grok source and weights, taunting OpenAI: Amid criticism of OpenAI's closed models, Musk makes the Grok-1 AI model free to download.
arstechnica.com/information-technology/2024/03/elon-musks-xai-releases-grok-source-and-weights-taunting-openai/
Quick Glance: Grok-1 Chatbot Code Released - Open Source or Pandora's Box?
- Elon Musk has released the code behind the xAI chatbot Grok-1, including the network architecture and model weights. The chatbot was released under the Apache 2.0 license and has 314 billion parameters that require hardware with sufficient GPU memory to run.
- Critics have highlighted the relatively sluggish performance in benchmarks compared to other models. Grok-1 has access to real-time data via X.com and differs from other LLMs trained on data with a cutoff point in time.
- Based on The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy model, Grok-1 is intended to answer almost anything and suggest questions. The release coincides with the first anniversary of OpenAI's GPT-4 model launch, while Musk is in legal disputes with former AI colleagues.
- The release of Grok-1's code and weights aims to diverge from OpenAI's proprietary approach. Open-sourcing AI tools has sparked controversy, with concerns about potential abuse and arguments for the benefits of transparency.

arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/03/pornhub-blocks-all-texas-users-after-court-upholds-age-verification-law/
Quick Glance: Pornhub Disables Texas Website Due to Age-Verification Law - Paxton Shows Support
- In response to a court ruling that upheld a state law requiring age-verification systems on porn websites, Pornhub has deactivated its website in Texas.
- An identical notification was disseminated on other platforms owned by the corporation, such as RedTube, YouPorn, and Brazzers. Additionally, as a form of demonstration against similar legislation, Pornhub has restricted access to its website in Arkansas, Mississippi, Montana, North Carolina, Utah, and Virginia.
- The US Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit affirmed the Texas law in a 2-1 decision last week. The majority panel of the 5th Circuit suggested reviewing the Texas law for pornographic sites based on the 'rational basis' standard rather than subjecting it to strict scrutiny.
- Within its communication to Texas-based users, Pornhub contended that requiring 'identification each time you wish to visit an adult platform is not a viable solution for ensuring user protection online and, in fact, jeopardizes minors and personal privacy.'
