Elon Musk's xAI has officially launched Grok 3, its latest AI model, which Musk has dubbed the "smartest AI on Earth." Trained on 200,000 GPUs, this new model is positioned as a direct competitor to OpenAI's GPT-4 and DeepSeek, excelling in math, science, and coding benchmarks. The launch appears to coincide with a price hike for X Premium+ subscriptions, offering initial access to Grok 3 for subscribers in the U.S., with a separate subscription planned for web and app versions.

xAI's Grok 3 comes with advanced reasoning and agentic abilities and uses more than 10 times the computing power of Grok 2. It has two modes: "Think," which uses a smaller Grok 3 mini model for simple queries, and "Big Brain," which utilizes Grok 3 for complex problems. A new agentic feature called DeepSearch, conducts comprehensive analyses and generates reports, similar to tools recently released by OpenAI, Google, and Perplexity.
