Elon Musk on Thursday claimed that his latest version of generative AI, Grok 3, is “outperforming” all rival chatbots and will be released by the end of the month.
The billionaire started his artificial intelligence startup xAI in 2023 and launched Grok as a direct competitor to OpenAI’s ChatGPT.
“Grok 3 has very powerful reasoning capabilities, so in the tests that we’ve done thus far, Grok 3 is outperforming anything that’s been released, that we’re aware of, so that’s a good sign,” Musk said during a video call addressing the World Governments Summit in Dubai.
Musk called Grok 3 “scary-smart,” saying the bot has been able to come up with “not obvious solutions” that people would not anticipate.
“We think it’ll be better than anything else, and then maybe this might be the last time that any AI is better than Grok,” he continued, a challenge to OpenAI’s long dominant ChatGPT.
Musk co-founded OpenAI with its chief executive, Sam Altman, in 2015, but later ties with the firm in 2018 and has since been embroiled in a legal battle with the AI rival.
