Grok 4.6 drops around August 7 with a 1.5... trillion parameter model and improved fine-tuning, per Elon Musk. Grok 4.7 follows a few weeks later at 2.1T, better in every benchmark but slightly slower to serve. xAI is stacking releases while Grok 4.5 already beats Opus 5 on price-performance in cybersecurity benchmarks.show more

⚡️ JUST IN: MUSK LAUNCHES GROK 4.5, CALLING IT... "OPUS-CLASS" AI MODEL Musk just released Grok 4.5 on Grok Build, Cursor, and the SpaceXAI Console, calling it an "Opus-class" AI model. He says it is faster, more token-efficient and lower cost, with EU access expected by mid-July. Built on a 1.5 TRILLION parameter foundation model, it drops the same day as OpenAI's GPT-5.6. API pricing is $2 per million input tokens and $6 per million output tokens.show more

Grok 4.5 is first xAI model that win my... heart 🫡 this is better then glm 5.2 and on par with current opus and gpt They cooked with the frontend too , like see this quality it made a website to showcase its benchmark and i asked it for water effects on background Elon Musk great jobshow more

🚨ELON: GROK IS STILL PARTIALLY BLIND, BUT WE’RE FIXING... IT “So like, the biggest weakness of Grok currently is that it's sort of partially blind. Its image understanding, and obviously its image generation, needs to be a lot better. That’s actually being trained right now. Grok 4 is based on version six of our foundation model, and we’re training version seven, which will complete in a few weeks.” Source: xAI Elon Muskshow more

Grok 4.5 is a "Wow!" moment. 🤯 > Opus... 4.8 & GPT-5.5 level on benchmarks > Costs less than Sonnet 5 Is that real? Hard to believe. Added Grok 4.5 as an implementer agent in fable-advisor. It replaces Sonnet 5. Use Fable as the orchestrator and a combo of: 1. Grok 4.5 2. Opus 4.8 3. GPT-5.5 As implementer agents. Uses the Grok Build CLI so if you log in with an X premium account you don't have to pay API fees.show more

Elon Musk: “We’re making rapid progress on Grok because... Grok 4.5 was a huge improvement We have Grok 4.6 coming out probably next week, and then Grok 4.7 is about three or four weeks from today. We expect the cadence of AI development to improve dramatically And then, with Grok 5....which should be out before the end of the year.....we will be incorporating the entire corpus of SpaceX: basically all the data that SpaceX has ever produced That is a tremendous amount over the course of a quarter century, and it will be incorporated into Grok training We think this will make Grok, by far, the best engineer…”show more

NVIDIA CEO: GROK 5 IS A 7 TRILLION PARAMETER... RACE AGAINST TIME Jensen Huang is dialing in on the real challenge: not making bigger models, but training them fast without draining power or budgets. Grok 5 is right in the middle of that race. “The next frontier model. Elon already mentioned that the next version of Grok, Grok 5 I believe, is 7 trillion parameters. This one is 10, and the green represents Blackwell. In the case of Rubin, notice that the throughput is much higher, so it only takes one fourth as many of these systems to train the model within the one-month timeframe we have given here.” Source: Rohan Paulshow more

ELON MUSK: Grok 5 will train on all SpaceX... data, which could make it “by far the best engineer”. “We’re making rapid progress on Grok because Grok 4.5 was a huge improvement.

Claude Opus 5 just smoked Grok on prediction markets.... $1,000 to $3,700 in a single day. A guy made $16,000 on Grok in ten weeks with four prompts. I ran his exact prompts through the new Opus 5 instead. It did in a day what took Grok two months. Grok still wins on breaking news. It reads live X the second a story drops, nothing beats it there. But on mispriced markets, Opus 5 saw money Grok walked right past. Same prompts. Same questions. Higher hit rate on almost every one. There's a reason, and it's a little unfair. I'm not spelling it out here, because the day everyone knows it the edge is dead. Almost nobody is running these prompts through Opus 5 yet. That window is the whole opportunity. The four prompts are in the article below, copy-paste ready. Bookmark & read this now, while you're still early enough for it to matter.show more

🇺🇸 Grok jumped five points in five weeks: From... 56 to 61 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index. They beat competitors on knowledge work, crushed it on Harvey LAB by 13 points, and the kicker? “Grok 4.6 is a Sol-quality model… at a fraction of the price. $6 vs $30.” xAI is closing the gap AND making frontier intelligence cheaper and faster than the field expected.

SemiAnalysis Dylan shares his thoughts on xAI Grok and... research labs: > xAI has ALOT of compute concentrated > ALOT of great researchers > 200K GPUs already running > purchased a new factory in memphis > building out a new data center > now they are buying a power plant and shipping it from overseas because you can’t get a new one in time in the US > Grok models are good > elon is hyping up next model > maybe it’ll be great / good > will it be openai level? or slightly behind? > we’ll see > he uses grok for current events > grok knows exactly what’s happening way better than google search, gemini or openai > every research lab is generally doing the same thing > even SSIshow more

NEW VIDEO: every major AI model ranked for vibe... coding. Fable 5 is still the only S tier. Opus 5 redeemed itself to A tier. Grok 4.6 is B tier with the best subscription in AI. Real world rankings from someone who spends over $1,000 a month on AI subscriptions. Not benchmarks. I do not recommend anything below B tier.show more

.p0 Systems has a day-one partnership with xAI for... the next Grok model... SerPepe gave the breakdown: - $1M commitment directly with xAI - A dedicated team member on Slack, online whenever P0 needs them - Day-one access to the new Grok coding model when it drops - P0's usage will be subsidized (discounted straight from xAI) The result: "P0 will be the best and cheapest platform to use the new Grok model." His read on Grok itself: 4.7 is going to be heavily coding-focused. "What I'm hearing from my guy at SpaceX is it's a much better model at coding." P0 gets early access to test before launch. How he built the connection: "It's all about talking with people, then negotiating...because we have the user base and the demand." solana:HmTi3CQfKfXWbn1tNoiAxH7GzMV7L3tDAmPWabZEBAGS LP with Meteora using MCG -show more

Grok 4.5 is out!!! here is what you need... to know : On cursor bench it matched fable 5 high at 83% cheaper, although the ui generation feels similar to gpt 5.5 in a bad way. Important to note, cursor bench was LEAKED to grok 4.5 and may have skewed the results! My initial thoughts are this could be a insanely cheap opus 4.8 level model that runs insanely fast. Will you be using grok build?show more

Elon Musk on Grok’s growing role in customer service:... "We’re seeing Grok be very helpful in customer service. The AI is infinitely patient and friendly you can yell at it, and it’s still going to be very nice. That’s actually quite valuable Grok is already doing a strong job improving customer service and issue resolution at both SpaceX and Tesla, and we’re looking forward to offering this capability to other companies as well” Grok is becoming a practical AI employee that can handle real customer interactions at scale xAI continues to push Grok’s capabilities even further with every updateshow more

ELON: "NEW AI ‘GROKIPEDIA’ EXPOSES PROPAGANDA IN SECONDS" "The... recent update to Grok is actually, I think, very good at piercing through propaganda. We used that latest version of Grok to create Grokipedia, which I believe is not just more neutral and more accurate than Wikipedia, but also contains a lot more information than a typical Wikipedia page. We’ve finished training a maximally truth-seeking version of Grok that’s strong in cogent analysis, breaking down any argument into its axiomatic elements, assessing whether those axioms are likely true, non-contradictory, and whether the conclusion logically follows. Essentially, we’ve trained Grok in advanced critical thinking." Source: The All-In Podcast, Elon Musk, Grok, xAI, Grokipediashow more

Grok 4.5 might be the BEST model to run... inside Hermes or OpenClaw RIGHT NOW. I've been sleeping on Grok to be honestNot anymore. It's more than 60% cheaper than Opus 4.8 and lands around $2.49 per task versus ~$12 for Fable in Claude Code. And it's fast. So what happens when you give Hermes + Grok 4.5 its own email, its own phone number, its own debit card, and access to every tool you use? You pretty much get an AI co-founder. Everything you need to know about Grok 4.5 + Hermes below. Full episode is available to watch at The Startup Ideas Podcast (SIP) 🧃 ( thanks Nick Vasilescu for coming on) I slept on Grok. Not sleeping on it anymore. Watchshow more
