xAI is an artificial intelligence company founded by Elon Musk in 2023 with the mission of advancing AI to accelerate human understanding of the universe. Its flagship product, Grok, is a generative AI chatbot integrated into X (formerly Twitter), mobile apps, and Tesla vehicles. Grok is designed with a witty, irreverent personality inspired by The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and offers real-time access to X data, the web, and multimodal capabilities such as voice and vision. Since its launch in November 2023, Grok has evolved through several iterations—from Grok-1 to the latest Grok-4—featuring advanced reasoning modes, DeepSearch, and a voiced AI assistant named “Eve.” Powered by xAI’s Colossus supercomputer with over 200,000 NVIDIA H100 GPUs, Grok delivers high performance in benchmarks for math, coding, and general knowledge. While praised for speed and versatility, Grok has also faced controversies over unfiltered content, “Spicy Mode” image generation, and moderation concerns. xAI continues to position Grok as a cutting-edge AI assistant for both consumers and enterprise applications, balancing innovation with ongoing debates about AI ethics, safety, and regulation.
