Musk’s xAI Rolls Out Grok-3—A New Titan in the AI Wars
Elon Musk’s xAI has unveiled Grok-3, an advanced AI model with enhanced reasoning capabilities, trained on up to 15 times more compute power than its predecessor. The model features two reasoning modes, Grok-3 Reasoning beta and Grok-3 mini, enabling step-by-step problem-solving in math, science, and coding.

Elon Musk’s xAI Corp. late Monday night announced the launch of Grok-3, the latest in the company’s family of large language models. The company says the AI model is a significant leap in power over its previous Grok-2 LLM that includes ‘reasoning models’ to mimic human thinking. During a livestream announcement, xAI researchers said that Grok-3 was trained using 10 to 15 times more compute power than Grok-2. The company launched a massive supercomputer training system named Colossus in September, built with 100,000 Nvidia Corp. H100 graphics processing units. It’s designed to bring new iterations of Grok online.
xAI also introduced DeepSearch for internet-backed responses and announced an upcoming voice mode with human-like conversational abilities.
