Elon Musk launches Grok, an alternative to ChatGPT?
Elon Musk, who was a founder of OpenAI in 2015 but exited in 2018 due to "disagreement," has now introduced a "competitor" to ChatGPT: Grok.
According to xAI, Musk's AI company:
"Grok designed to answer questions with a bit of wit and has a rebellious streak, so please don't use it if you hate humor.
A unique and fundamental advantage of Grok is that it has real-time knowledge of the world via the X platform. It will also answer spicy questions that are rejected by most other AI systems."
Right now, the platform is still limited to verified users, so little is known about what exactly it can already do. According to rumors, it is currently somewhat similar to GPT-3.5 and the model has only been trained on about 2 months of data.
It will be interesting to keep an eye on this development, because Musk, with his companies such as Tesla, X (formerly Twitter) and SpaceX, has access to a great deal of unique real-time data, which he will start using for his AI models. This could quickly make him a major player.
