Grok AI Chatbot: What It Is and How to Use It

Grok, an AI chatbot developed by Elon Musk's company xAI, has been made available to the public. Like ChatGPT and other tools, Grok can generate text. However, unlike other chatbots, it has real-time access to information through X. Grok is currently limited to Premium+ subscribers only, though regular users can also request an invite for early access. We'll cover what we know so far about this available app, including what Grok is, how to use Grok-1, and the difference between ChatGPT and Grok. Let's see whether Elon Musk's new pride and joy, Grok, can rival ChatGPT.

What Is Grok?

Grok is an AI bot developed by xAI. Released in November 2023, it is now available to users of the social media platform X who hold a Premium+ subscription.

Grok-1, the large language model powering Grok, was trained using a custom tech stack built on the Kubernetes software orchestration system, the JAX machine learning framework, and the Rust programming language, and it's expected to work faster and more efficiently than other chatbots.

Like ChatGPT, Grok-1 was trained on a huge amount of text data pulled from the internet, covering everything from Wikipedia articles to scientific papers. However, what sets Grok apart is its direct access to posts made on X.

This new app has two modes: "Fun Mode" and "Regular Mode." By default, Grok runs in "Fun Mode." "Regular Mode" generally gives more accurate answers, but just like with ChatGPT, its error rate can still be high at times.

ChatGPT Vs Grok: What Are the Differences?

• While ChatGPT has no access to real-time information, Grok also has access to current information.
• Grok leans toward fun, while ChatGPT leans toward more serious topics, and ChatGPT's knowledge of political topics is stronger.
• Grok doesn't have image processing like ChatGPT does. (Not yet :))
• ChatGPT has free versions, while Grok is paid.
• Grok scored higher with users compared to ChatGPT.

How Do You Use Grok-1?

Grok currently offers service exclusively to Premium+ subscribers, but you can sign up for early access with your X account here. After signing up, you'll receive a notification reading, "Thank you for applying to our early access program. The program is currently limited to X Premium+ subscribers."

AI technology keeps advancing day by day, with new tools replacing older ones. ChatGPT too has been explored and used by every user. Whether Elon Musk's new pride and joy, Grok, can replace it is entirely up for debate. The fact that ChatGPT also has free versions seems like it could heat things up a bit — we'll have to wait and see!

What Does Grok-1 Do?

Grok can draft emails, debug code, generate ideas, and more — all while doing so in fluent, human-like language.
