The Elon Musk-backed AI startup unveiled its latest Grok-3 artificial intelligence chatbot claimed to outperform other U.S. or Chinese competitors.

The four models that make up the Grok 3 family were trained on a considerable amount of synthetic data and are designed to self-correct by analysing inconsistencies.

According to xAI’s blog, Grok 3 leverages Test-Time Compute at Scale (TTCS), a specific implementation of test-time scaling, to power its reasoning. This machine learning strategy enables the A.I. model to dynamically adjust computational resources, ensuring higher accuracy for complex queries while maintaining speed for simpler tasks.

While company owner Elon Musk expanded on that a bit during an official Grok 3 launch video on the social media platform, one key detail was omitted: the price. It has now been revealed that X’s highest level subscription tier – X Premium+ – has been increased substantially in price, with US users required to pay $40 each month for its benefits.

Grok 3 is Musk's latest AI powerhouse, but despite its rapid progress, experts say it's still not enough to dethrone ChatGPT as the top AI model. Is it true?

On Tuesday, February 18, Elon Musk’s xAI launched its latest flagship AI model, Grok 3, with enhanced capabilities. Grok 3 is a significant upgrade to Musk's AI models, which have been developed as an alternative to similar models like OpenAI’s GPT-4 and Google’s Gemini.

Elon Musk's artificial intelligence startup xAI announced an update to its artificial intelligence chatbot Tuesday along with claims that tests in key computing areas reflect the beta version of Grok3 is already outperforming competitors in key areas.
