The xAI artificial intelligence startup founded by Elon Musk has released a new chatbot model, Grok 4, a few months after Grok 3. The update has enhanced multimodal performance and a voice interface, which the company says outperforms top academic benchmarks in several fields. During a livestreamed demonstration late Wednesday, Musk referred to Grok 4 as “smarter than almost all graduate students” and said it is capable of reasoning in first principles. Releasing @Grok 4 from @xAI https://t.co/SYJbxJySSR — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 10, 2025 Grok 4 will be a competitor of the GPT-5 developed by OpenAI. It also adds new functionality, like real-time integrations with prediction platforms like Polymarket, where it can analyze social data to predict the likely results of an event, like sports event outcomes. In another demonstration, Grok performed the task of evaluating the quality of video games, which Musk claims enables the model to tell whether a game is fun, according to design metrics. The company highlighted the memory, logic, and creativity boost that was achieved with Grok 4. Although Musk acknowledged that the bot has not yet generated new technologies, new scientific laws, he said that these stories are “just a matter of time.” xAI’s long-term goal for Grok extends beyond chat and entertainment. The company is developing a system that can reason from first principles and provide output in text, image, and speaking voices. The voice interface in Grok 4 suggests a more profound engagement with human interaction. In contrast to earlier versions, Grok 4 has been positioned as a tool rather than a machine to solve questions simply, but to take complex problem-solving, prediction modeling, and even creativity to new levels. Musk said that the model has not yet found new physics or technologies, but is sure such achievements are possible. “It’s…
