In latest AI war escalation, Elon Musk releases chatbot code


Musk’s move to open up coding on Grok is the latest volley in a war to win the generative AI battle, after a suit against OpenAI on the same topic. — The New York Times

SAN FRANCISCO: Elon Musk released the raw computer code behind his version of an artificial intelligence chatbot on March 17, an escalation by one of the world’s richest men in a battle to control the future of AI.

Grok, which is designed to give snarky replies styled after the science-fiction novel The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy, is a product from xAI, the company Musk founded last year. While xAI is an independent entity from X, formerly known as Twitter, its technology has been integrated into the social media platform and is trained on users’ posts. Users who subscribe to X’s premium features can ask Grok questions and receive responses.
