Elon Musk Praises AI Chatbot 'Grok 3' as the Smartest on Earth, Set to Launch Soon


AI chatbot 'Grok 3' developed by Musk's xAI startup to challenge OpenAI


Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence (AI) startup, xAI, is preparing to release its latest chatbot, 'Grok 3', in the coming days, with Musk claiming that the AI is the smartest in the world. This announcement comes as the competition in the global AI chatbot market intensifies, with xAI planning to challenge rivals like OpenAI.

On February 15, 2025, Musk shared a post on X (formerly Twitter) revealing that 'Grok 3' would be launched on February 17, 2025, calling it "the smartest AI on Earth." Musk further elaborated during a virtual meeting at the World Government Summit in Dubai on February 13, emphasizing that 'Grok 3' boasts powerful reasoning abilities, which have outperformed all existing AI models in preliminary tests.

The AI chatbot has been trained with synthetic data and incorporates a unique feature: it reviews and self-corrects errors to maintain logical consistency. Musk’s statements underline his belief that this new model exceeds expectations and is far superior to any chatbot currently available on the market.

This development arrives amid growing competition in the AI sector. In recent months, Chinese startup Deepseek has raised eyebrows by releasing an AI chatbot comparable to OpenAI's GPT, yet at a much lower cost. The surge in new AI players has made the industry increasingly competitive, and experts believe the release of 'Grok 3' will further accelerate the race to dominate the market.

The timing of 'Grok 3's' launch is notable, as it coincides with increasing tensions between Musk and OpenAI. Musk was one of the original co-founders of OpenAI in 2015, alongside Sam Altman, but the two have experienced significant disagreements over the years regarding the company’s direction. After resigning from OpenAI's board in 2018, Musk went on to establish xAI in 2023 and has since filed lawsuits to block OpenAI’s transition into a for-profit organization. Recently, Musk made a $97.4 billion bid to gain control of OpenAI, further intensifying the conflict.

In addition to the upcoming launch of 'Grok 3,' xAI has been making significant strides in expanding its operations. Bloomberg reported that the startup is in the process of raising $10 billion in investment, which would boost the company’s valuation to around $75 billion. This financial growth aligns with Musk’s ambition to challenge the dominance of other AI giants, including OpenAI, by offering a more capable and efficient AI solution.

The introduction of 'Grok 3' could mark a pivotal moment in the AI industry, as Musk’s startup competes to redefine the capabilities of artificial intelligence. With 'Grok 3' expected to outperform all previous models, including those developed by OpenAI, the landscape of AI chatbots could be dramatically altered in the near future. The battle for supremacy in AI innovation is heating up, and 'Grok 3' could be the game-changer that shifts the balance of power.
