Ammon News - Elon Musk unveiled his AI company’s new flagship AI model, Grok 3, which he claimed is the “smartest on Earth”.

The multibillionaire owner of Tesla, SpaceX and the AI firm xAI launched Grok 3 on Tuesday for iOS and the web, claiming the latest version is “complete with 10X more compute” than its previous version.

Grok 3 has been in development for several months and was slated for release in 2024 but missed its target.

The AI firm has been building a large data centre in Memphis with over 200,000 GPUs particularly to train Grok 3.

In December, Mr Musk said the training data set for Grok 3 also included court cases, claiming that the AI model would “render extremely compelling legal verdicts”.

“Grok 3 is an order of magnitude more capable than Grok 2...[It’s a] maximally truth-seeking AI, even if that truth is sometimes at odds with what is politically correct,” the Tesla and SpaceX boss said during a live-streamed launch of the AI on Tuesday.

The company claims Grok 3 beats OpenAI’s GPT-4o on several benchmarks, including the AIME test which evaluates an AI model’s performance on math questions as well as GPQA which tests the physics, biology, and chemistry problem-solving skills.

Grok 3 is currently available for Premium+ subscribers on X. xAI said it is also launching a new subscription plan called SuperGrok for the Grok mobile app and Grok.com website users.

Users can use separate modes of Grok 3 – one that requires the chatbot to “Think,” and another “Big Brain” mode for more difficult queries for which the AI uses additional computing. Independent
