Some early results of our first vision model. It'll be integrated into the Grok chat in the medium term. A few other features will ship before that (likely very soon). Props to {@tingchenai, @gabriel_ilharco}. x.ai/blog/grok-1.5v
We'll release Grok-1.5 in a couple of days and will expand access to more users and more countries. x.ai/blog/grok-1.5
One unpopular opinion I hold is that scripting languages (Python, JS, PHP etc) are great for learning programming but insufficient for learning how computers and operating systems actually work. Becoming proficient in C or C++ can be eye-opening and exciting.

We are hiring engineers to help integrate xAI’s models into X. This is an outrageous opportunity to interweave ai into our consumer, planet scale app. Client, backend, infra engineers welcome. DM me if you’re interested and we’ll get in touch
Grok just got a lot faster. We have many other improvements in the pipeline that will ship soon.
Do you want to work for @xai in London? Now you can. We're looking for software engineers. Apply if you want to get stuff done, work with smart people, and get grilled in one of my coding interviews. Backend & data: boards.greenhouse.io/xai/jobs/42769… Full-stack: boards.greenhouse.io/xai/jobs/42769…
In a world where data is the new oil, X is a well.
I merged my 500th pull request @xai today. You can see the Grok launch night on the graph too.
Dear Spotlight-Search, When I type "bluetooth", I never - ever - want to open the "Bluetooth File Exchange" app. Thank you. Sincerely, Everyone
I'm super excited to work with the great people who are joining @xai today and over the next couple of weeks. Some of the smartest engineers I ever got to interview. PS: We're still hiring x.ai/career/
If your company is running out of meeting rooms, you don't have too few rooms. You have too many meetings.
@jordanbpeterson Yes, Grok 1.5 should be out next month with substantial improvements across the board
We may finally be at the point where "super-human performance" actually means "better than most humans" in real-world applications. Can't wait for nearly flawless speech recognition, image understanding, and reasoning/deduction.

very very true. Really impressive what they’ve done
It's inspiring to see what a small team can accomplish in such a short period of time. @RekaAILabs, an enterprise multimodal LLM company, has only had access to 90% of their compute for the past 4 months, but that hasn't stopped the brilliant team of 20 to go head-to-head in…

building microservices
I haven’t made up my mind about this program yet – but it sparked quite some thoughts on how admissions, careers, publishing in AI evolved over the last few years. And I love the discussion around this happening here on X. So, here are some of my thoughts: davidstutz.de/m3wk9
Been preaching (nor writing) this for a while: ANY data filter is a decision to not learn about sth. Think carefully: really want that? For small runs? For large runs? What else could you be inadvertently removing? Do you really know your filter? Looked at examples it removes?
9/9: KEY TAKEAWAY: If you overtrain, go back n check the curation strategy of these *static* sets, and reduce their aggressiveness. Otherwise, as we show, even the raw common crawl can outperform famous curated subsets like LAION. Why: because data loses utility with repetitions.
