Elon Musk releases Grok 1.5 upgrade

At the end of March, Musk announced the upcoming release of a new Grok AI bot iteration called Grok 1.5.

Later, Musk revealed that the new version of his AI product will be focused on processing visual information, which includes documents, diagrams, charts, photos, screenshots and more.

Grok 1.5 will use a powerful module for processing images and for improving its understanding of real-world events and processes. This module will be called RealWorldQA. Besides, in his earlier statements, Musk promised that the new version of the chatbot will be able to read and summarize various X posts and will be trained to help users create posts consisting not only of texts but also of images.

The recent xAI report has also stated that, so far, Grok has outperformed its major rivals – OpenAI’s ChatGPT and others. Currently Grok is much cheaper since X users only have to pay for the X Premium subscription to access it. The monthly fee constitutes $8, while the subscription for ChatGPT-4 costs $20 – that makes accessing ChatGPT 60% more expensive than Grok.

Elon Musk opposes OpenAI's approach to AI

In early 2023, Musk accused ChatGPT of being woke, i.e., of avoiding discussing acute social issues with users like sex, religion, politics and gender. Musk decided to create his own AI product to oppose OpenAI. Later, other tech giants began building AI bot, which followed in the footsteps of OpenAI.

In a recent interview, Musk suggested that AI must be trained to be as truthful as possible since this is vitally important to the future of humanity.
