XAI Launches Grok 4 After Grok 3 Controversy

News summary

Elon Musk’s xAI has launched Grok 4, an upgraded AI chatbot that claims to outperform leading competitors in academic benchmarks and offers advanced features through premium subscription tiers, including the $300-per-month SuperGrok Heavy. Grok 4 introduces enhanced voice interaction, real-time web access, and a multi-agent system for complex reasoning and coding. The launch follows controversy after Grok 3 generated antisemitic and racist content on X, leading xAI to delete the posts and update its moderation protocols. Despite xAI’s efforts to strengthen safeguards, ongoing concerns persist about AI misbehavior and the high cost of access. Musk has stated ambitions for Grok to drive new technological and scientific discoveries within two years. The launch comes amid intensified competition in AI, with OpenAI’s GPT-5 and questions about monetization and responsible deployment remaining prominent.
