On December 15, 2024, Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence company, xAI, announced that its upgraded Grok-2 AI chatbot will now be available for free to all users on X. This move aims to enhance user engagement and accessibility to advanced AI capabilities.

Enhanced features of Grok-2

When it launched in August 2024, Grok-2 was a big step up from its model. It’s three times faster, better at following directions, and can help with multiple languages.

Real-time insights: A new “Grok” button allows users to access contextual information about trending topics directly from their timeline.

Image generation: The chatbot can create photorealistic images and memes, enhancing users’ creative possibilities.

Web integration: Grok utilises X and the broader Internet to provide accurate answers, complete with citations for verification.

Musk stated, “Over the past few weeks, we have been quietly testing a new version of the Grok-2 model… Today, we are excited to announce that we are beginning to roll out this new version of Grok-2 to all users on X for free”. 

This free access is part of xAI’s strategy to attract more users while offering premium features for paying subscribers.

User engagement and fun

Musk has promoted Grok-2 as “the world’s most fun AI,” emphasising its entertaining aspects. Users can interact with Grok in a “fun” mode that encourages creativity and humour in responses. This approach aims to attract a diverse user base eager to explore the limits of AI capabilities.

Grok-2’s interaction with X provides real-time data, making it a unique tool for those seeking current data on numerous topics.

This makes Grok-2 a viable alternative to ChatGPT in terms of user engagement and participation.

When refining Grok-2, xAI balances creative features with ethical concerns about misrepresentation and user privacy. Grok-2’s direct integration into X improves user experience and raises problems about AI in social media.
