Musk: will gradually open up Grok AI to X Premium+ subscribers

CTOnews.com, December 3 (Xinhua)-- Musk's artificial intelligence startup xAI launched its first AI assistant, Grok, last month.

Musk said that Grok will be included directly in 𝕏 's Premium+ subscription service, and its access will slowly become available to users in the coming week or so, and the priority will depend on the subscription time.

Of course, existing 𝕏 users can subscribe for $16 a month (CTOnews.com Note: currently about RMB114) or $168 a year (currently about RMB1200).

Currently, invited users can click on the left entry of the 𝕏 app. From the screenshot of the exposure, the Grok AI chat interface is very simple.

If the invited user has not purchased a Premium+ subscription, it will jump out of the prompt of "Get Grok with Premium+" and recommend the user to buy a Premium+ subscription.

CTOnews.com Note: the word Grok comes from the 1961 novel Strangers in a strange land written by Robert A. Heinlein.

In this book, the term refers to a Martian word, "meaning to fully understand something or someone so that the observer becomes part of the observed-merging, merging, losing identity in a group", which is an almost metaphysical understanding.

Musk believes that the biggest difference between OpenAI's ChatGPT, Google's Bard and Microsoft's Bing Chat,Grok is the sense of humor.

Musk said Grok was trained with billions of data points from public data, but it was not clear what data was being used. In addition, he also mentioned that Grok will be able to access the X platform in real time, so this is a huge advantage over other generative artificial intelligence.

Because of its relationship with X, Grok may become one of the strongest social language models (LLM). The features are as follows:

1. The SuperPrompt context window size of Grok is 25000 Tokens.

2. The "real-time" search engine first focuses on X to get the context.

3. The knowledge base is a variant of "The Pile" of 886.03 GB and the whole X platform.

4. Characters and responses have a better sense of humor

5. Voice will be supported (that is, voice can be tweeted through grok)

6. In the API plan

7. Image generation and image recognition plan (generate all kinds of emojis when tweeting? )

8. Audio recognition plan (voice to text)

9. The scaled-down version of Gr k will be able to run on Tesla using local computing power.

10. High response time.

11. Considering that 𝕏 is the best source of breaking news, Grok may also become the most important real-time news big language model.
