<p>Grok 3 AI is now free to use. xAI claims it to be the most advanced AI model, surpassing benchmarks in reasoning, coding, and knowledge.</p>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Key takeaways:</h4>



<ul class="wp-block-list">

<li>X Premium+ and SuperGrok users will get increased access, and an API release will come soon.</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Grok 3 AI: The ‘Most Powerful Ever’ according to xAI</h2>



<p>Elon Musk’s AI startup xAI has boldly claimed that Grok 3 is &#8220;crushing it&#8221; in multiple domains, including math, coding, reasoning, and world knowledge.&nbsp;</p>



<p>According to xAI’s official blog, Grok 3 surpasses competitors in academic benchmarks and real-world user preferences.</p>



<p>With an Elo score of 1402 in Chatbot Arena, xAI emphasizes that Grok 3 outperforms other AI models in instruction-following tasks, making it a serious contender in the AI landscape.</p>

</div></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">New features: DeepSearch &amp; Think</h2>



<p>Grok 3 comes with two significant enhancements:</p>



<p><strong>DeepSearch</strong>: A cutting-edge AI agent designed to synthesize key information, navigate conflicting facts, and deliver precise insights from complex data.&nbsp;</p>



<p>xAI states that DeepSearch produces a &#8220;concise and comprehensive report&#8221; to help users stay ahead in an ever-evolving world.</p>



<p><strong>Think Mode</strong>: An advanced reasoning feature optimized for math, science, and coding. Users can ask Grok to &#8220;Think harder&#8221; for more accurate and sophisticated responses, making it ideal for technical problem-solving.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How to access Grok 3?</h2>



<p>Grok 3 is available for free (for now) via multiple platforms:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>X (formerly Twitter):</strong> X Premium+ and SuperGrok users receive priority access.</li>



<li><strong>iOS App:</strong> Available for Apple users.</li>



<li><strong>Web Platform:</strong> A dedicated website is live for broader accessibility.</li>
</ul>



<p>An API release is planned soon, allowing developers to integrate Grok 3 into their applications. xAI encourages developers to &#8220;join us to build the future,&#8221; hinting at continuous improvements and expansions.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Elon Musk’s vision for AI dominance</h2>



<p>Musk’s xAI has positioned <a href="https://octet.design/journal/elon-musk-releases-grok-3-ai/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Grok 3 AI</a> as a revolutionary model, claiming it outperforms industry leaders in multiple benchmarks. </p>



<p>With open access (for now) and powerful new features, Grok 3 is set to challenge the dominance of ChatGPT and other major AI models.</p>



<p>Will this be the game-changer Musk envisions, or is this another ambitious claim? Only time will tell, but Grok 3 is free for now—at least &#8220;until our servers melt.&#8221;</p>
