Phones Canada is excited to share the latest news about Elon Musk’s xAI and their Grok AI chatbot. After making a promise to open source Grok, xAI has delivered on that promise by releasing Grok-1 on GitHub under the Apache 2.0 license for transparency purposes.
Here are some key points to know about this exciting development:
– Grok-1 is a 314 billion parameter Mixture-of-Experts model trained from scratch by xAI.
– The base model weights and network architecture of Grok-1 have been made available for public use.
– The model is not fine-tuned for any specific application, such as dialogue, but it ensures a fast response by only using one-fourth of its compute.
– To utilize the Grok AI chatbot, one must be an X Premium+ customer. However, researchers and developers can access the Grok-1 source code on GitHub if they have the necessary powerful hardware.
It’s important to note that xAI founder Musk is currently involved in a legal battle with OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, over allegations that they have strayed from their original non-profit goals. OpenAI has denied these claims, and the legal proceedings are ongoing.
Overall, this release of Grok-1 showcases xAI’s commitment to transparency and innovation in the field of artificial intelligence. Stay tuned for more updates as this story continues to unfold!
