Elon Musk has said that xAI’s Grok 3 chatbot, which he called the “smartest AI on Earth,” will be unveiled on Monday.
The billionaire made the announcement in a post on X, saying the bot would be released with a live demo at 8 p.m. PT.
Speaking by video link at the World Government Summit in Dubai earlier this week, Musk suggested they were still “a week or two” away from releasing the product and that he didn’t want to be “hasty” in order to provide the best user experience possible.
But it seems he has decided to press ahead with an earlier release, writing on X that he would be “honing product with the team all weekend” and that he would be “offline until then.”
Teasing Grok 3 to the crowd in Dubai, Musk said it had been “outperforming anything that’s been released” in tests, adding that he thought the technology was “scary smart.”
The bot was trained on synthetic data and could review this to achieve logical consistency, he said.
“So if it’s got data that is wrong, it’ll actually reflect upon that and remove the data that is wrong,” he said. “Its base reasoning is very good.”
It comes after Chinese AI startup DeepSeek sent shockwaves through markets in January after the release of its new flagship AI model, R1, which it says matches the reasoning capabilities of US models such as OpenAI’s o1 but at a fraction of the cost.
Musk’s AI startup, xAI, was founded in 2023 and released its Grok 2 language model in August 2024.
Three xAI employees recently told Business Insider that the company planned to hire thousands of people this year to help train its chatbot.
