Elon Musk’s AI will arrive on Twitter at half the price: Grok is on sale

Grok has been available to Premium+ subscribers on Twitter since it came out of early beta, but that subscription tier costs $16 per month.

Surely you remember Grok, Elon Musk’s AI that was supposed to be an improved and non-woke version of ChatGPT, OpenAI’s chatbot. Elon Musk wanted to compete with his enemy Sam Altman and the reality is quite harsh.

The Grok chatbot from xAI, the company led by Elon Musk as a response to OpenAI’s ChatGPT, will be available to Premium Twitter subscribers by the end of this week.

Musk has announced the increased availability of Grok in a tweet, along with an instructional video on how to publish a conversation with the chatbot directly on Twitter.

A change that makes Grok more accessible

Grok has been available to Premium+ subscribers on Twitter since it came out of early beta, but that level of payment on the social network costs $16 per month or $168 for the full year when billed annually. Since the Premium level costs half, $8 per month or $84 per year, this change makes Grok a little more accessible.

In mid-March, Musk’s xAI made its Grok-1 model, which powers its chatbot, open source. A couple of weeks earlier, the executive sued OpenAI and Sam Altman, accusing them of pursuing profits and abandoning their non-profit mission.

A fistfight with OpenAI and Sam Altman

Elon Musk was one of the early supporters of OpenAI and funded its operations when it was starting. In his lawsuit, he claimed that OpenAI was developing generative artificial intelligence “to maximize the benefits for Microsoft, instead of for the benefit of humanity”. That, he said, was a “blatant betrayal of the Founding Agreement”.

But in a refutation of his claims, OpenAI said that “there is no Founding Agreement, nor any agreement at all with Musk” to open its technology. The company claims that Musk not only knew it was going to become a for-profit entity, but also participated in its planning and, initially, wanted the majority of the capital, control of the initial board of directors, and the CEO position.
