Tue Feb 18 08:07:20 UTC 2025: ## Musk’s xAI Unveils Grok 3: World’s Smartest AI, Claims CEO

**SAN FRANCISCO, CA** – Elon Musk’s xAI has launched Grok 3, touted as the world’s most intelligent AI, capable of tasks ranging from coding to live game development. The model, currently available to X Premium subscribers, was trained using two hundred thousand GPUs, according to Musk, who has been teasing its release on X (formerly Twitter) for days.

The launch comes amidst intensifying competition in the AI market, particularly from Chinese companies offering lower-cost products. It also follows Musk’s recent, unsuccessful $97.4 billion bid to acquire OpenAI, highlighting the escalating rivalry between Musk and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. In a direct comparison, Musk presented Grok 3 as significantly outperforming OpenAI’s GPT-4 in various benchmarks, including math, reasoning, and science.

Grok 3’s advanced reasoning capabilities, currently in beta, are expected to improve over time. A live demonstration showcased its ability to create a basic game, prompting xAI to announce the launch of an AI game studio. A smaller, mini version of Grok 3 was also unveiled.

Access to Grok 3 is integrated into X’s premium subscription, requiring an app update. xAI plans to offer a separate “Super Grok” subscription for users seeking early access to advanced features and capabilities through the Grok app and Grok.com. An API version is slated for release soon, targeting enterprise users.
