Musk's xAI launches Grok-3 chatbot to rival Gemini, GPT-4

Elon Musk’s AI company, xAI, has unveiled its upgraded Grok-3 chatbot, which boasts enhanced capabilities in mathematics, science, and programming.

The company claims Grok-3 outperforms models like Google’s Gemini and OpenAI’s GPT-4o.

Grok-3 offers over ten times the computational power of its predecessor and completed pre-training in January.

Additionally, xAI launched DeepSearch, a smart search engine that works alongside Grok-3.

DeepSearch lets users view the model’s reasoning process and supports tasks like research and data analysis.

Grok-3 is now available to Premium+ subscribers on the X platform, formerly known as Twitter.
