xAI’s Chatbot Grok Set to Launch for X’s Premium+ Subscribers
Elon Musk’s latest AI venture, xAI, is gearing up to introduce its chatbot Grok to X Premium+ subscribers. Musk himself confirmed the news through an X post on November 21st, announcing that the highly anticipated feature is scheduled to roll out next week. Grok, based on the beloved comedy sci-fi read Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, is the inaugural product of xAI. While Musk’s track record for delivering on promises has been questionable, indicators suggest that this time he will live up to his word.
According to TechCrunch, the platform has already integrated code for the chatbot feature. Screenshots shared by app researcher Nima Owji on X reveal a text entry box labeled Ask Grok, providing further evidence of its imminent arrival. X, the subscription-based platform, offers three tiers to its users: basic, premium, and premium+. The platform’s help center states that access to Grok is exclusively available to Premium+ subscribers, marking it as an exciting addition to their subscription. However, it remains uncertain whether Canadian account holders will have access to this feature.
To gain access to Grok on the web, Canadian users will have to subscribe to Premium+, which comes at a price of $20 per month or $210 annually.
In this era of AI-driven innovations, where virtual assistants have become the norm, the arrival of xAI’s Grok is eagerly awaited by X’s Premium+ subscribers. The chatbot aims to provide an interactive and intuitive experience, drawing from its Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy foundation. As Musk’s first foray into the realm of AI with xAI, Grok holds the promise of venturing beyond traditional chatbot functionalities.
While Musk has occasionally fallen short on his commitments, the appearance of code snippets related to Grok on the platform suggests this launch will be different. With Premium+ subscribers gaining exclusive access to this feature, X is establishing itself as a hub for cutting-edge AI technology. As users eagerly anticipate its arrival, the clock is ticking as the countdown to next week begins.
In the ever-expanding landscape of subscription-based services, X continues to push boundaries by offering its Premium+ subscribers an extra layer of AI interactivity. With Grok, xAI aims to elevate the user experience to new heights, opening doors to a level of intuitive interaction previously unseen. As the wait for Grok’s introduction draws to a close, X’s Premium+ subscribers can look forward to immersing themselves in the world of AI-driven conversation with a touch of comedic flair.
In the coming days, Premium+ subscribers in select regions will finally have the chance to interact with Grok’s witty and informative conversations. As the community eagerly anticipates its arrival, expectations are soaring high. Whether Grok lives up to the hype and becomes the AI companion subscribers envision remains to be seen. One thing is clear: the AI revolution has just taken another exciting leap forward, leaving us all to wonder what lies ahead as technology continues to shape our world.
