This announcement follows Musk’s recent declaration earlier this month that xAI intends to make Grok open-source. This decision came shortly after the billionaire initiated legal action against Microsoft-backed OpenAI, alleging a departure from its original mission in favor of a profit-oriented approach.
With aspirations to rival tech giants like OpenAI and Alphabet’s Google, Musk founded xAI last year, positioning it as a formidable contender in the AI landscape.
