Elon Musk’s Grok AI chatbot has been available to premium users in Europe since May, and now the entrepreneur has said that version 3 of the chatbot will launch by the end of the year, without specifying an exact date.
Tesla Grok 3 Coming Soon
Elon Musk announced that Grok 3 will be released later this year. He then highlighted how xAI will use 100,000 Nvidia H100s to train the third generation of the Large Language Model. So, five times bigger than Grok 2, which will use 20,000 GPUs. Musk promised that Grok 3 will be very special. Currently available in version 1.5, released in March, Grok is very different from other chatbots, as it extracts humorous information in real time from incoming data, interpreting sarcasm, humor and the ability to use it to send responses to users.

However, despite the powerful performance of version 1.5, Grok is less popular than ChatGPT and Gemini as there is no free version and the subscription costs are quite expensive.
Cohere CEO Aidan Gomez said in an interview shared by a user that many AI models are trained on OpenAI’s outputs, creating a “human centipede effect” with similar outputs. Elon Musk, in agreement with this statement, tweeted:
“Unfortunately, that’s quite true. It takes a lot of work to eliminate LLMs from Internet training data. Grok 2, coming out in August, will be a huge improvement in that regard.”
Grok 1 and 1.5, what are they?
Launched in November 2023, Grok 1 was the first AI model developed by Elon Musk’s xAI startup. A model that can understand and respond to complicated questions and requests; in short, just like a human would. It can also generate a variety of creative text formats (such as music, emails, letters, etc.). Grok 1 is also capable of learning and refining all of its features over time, by analyzing new data or through questions or answers from users.
The Capabilities of Tesla’s Grok
The main purpose of Grok 1 is to refine Tesla vehicles, in order to have a personal driving experience. Moreover, an interesting thing is that Grok also adapts to the mood of the driver.
Grok 1.5 is the latest AI model created by Elon Musk’s Company X. It is an artificial intelligence (xAI) model that not only understands and responds to human speech, but also explains its thoughts with perfect clarity.
Grok 1.5 can handle very long text contexts, up to 128,000 characters. This allows it to remember 16 times more than previous models and to use information from longer texts. Furthermore, Grok 1.5 is more complex and sophisticated than its predecessor. This allows it to better understand the relationships between different parts of the text and make more accurate decisions. It is also X’s first multimodal xAI model. For this reason, it is able to process not only text, but also visual information such as images, graphs and diagrams, better understand human language and provide precise and accurate answers. It is therefore a more efficient and performing model.
Grok 1.5 can be used in a wide range of applications, including:
Customer support: Because it allows you to create chatbots that understand and answer customer questions. Healthcare: Because it can help doctors make better decisions by analyzing medical records and other medical data. Financial assistance: It can be used to analyze financial documents and identify risks and opportunities. Education assistance: In order to create intelligent teaching systems that personalize learning for each student.
Musk VS Zuckerberg
Elon Musk previously diverted $500 million in H100s from Tesla to X, demonstrating how much the company is investing in AI work. The Grok 2 requires 20,000 H100s to train, a significant increase from previous versions. But Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta plans to acquire about 350,000 Nvidia H100 GPUs by the end of 2024, aiming for a total of 600,000 GPUs, which translates to $18 billion in AI investment.
