Grab your coffee, settle into a comfortable seat and catch up on what's new in the world of AI!

What is Grok?

Grok is the latest AI chatbot developed by X (formerly Twitter), designed to go beyond a simple assistant. Inspired by the "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", it seeks not only to answer questions, but also to suggest new relevant ones.

With real-time access to data from the X platform, including web searches and restrictions, Grok offers up-to-date and contextualized answers, allowing users to delve deeper into the topics they are researching. 

Combining a vast X database with natural language processing resources, Grok promises to revolutionize interaction with information on the social network.

Who's Behind the Grok?

The development of Grok is led by xAI, an AI company with the ambitious mission of expanding human understanding of the universe. 

Led by Elon Musk, known for his innovative ventures at the helm of Tesla and SpaceX, xAI relies on the expertise of Dan Hendrycks, director of the AI Safety Center, to ensure the responsible and ethical development of Grok.

How is Grok trained?

How is Grok trained? Like most Large Language Models(LLMs), Grok has undergone pre-training with a vast set of text data publicly available on the internet. 

This all-encompassing base or team has extensive knowledge on a wide range of subjects. What sets them apart, however, is their ability to learn continuously from the content generated by X users. 

Meet the Grok-2, Latest Model

The Grok-2 is a next-generation language model with enhanced reasoning capabilities. Along with it, the Grok-2 mini was also launched, a more compact but still powerful version. 

This dynamic duo expands the possibilities of AI in X, offering options that adapt to different needs and resources.

From the Grok-2, with all its potential, to the Grok-2 mini, more agile and accessible, the X experience becomes even more intelligent and personalized.

Launch of Grok Image Generation

Grok now generates images! A new model for generating autoregressive images (models that work by creating each part of the image based on previously generated parts), called 'Aurora', has been integrated directly into the X platform.

Trained with billions of examples from the internet, Aurora has a deep understanding of the world, excelling in realism and limitations when following text instructions. What's more, it accepts multimodal input, allowing users to insert images as inspiration or for editing. 

With Aurora, Grok becomes even more versatile, creating high-quality images in complex areas such as rendering details, text, logos and even realistic portraits.
