Elon Musk just released an AI that’s smarter than ChatGPT — here’s why that matters


Elon Musk's xAI launches Grok 3, outperforming ChatGPT and Google Gemini in benchmarks with 200,000 GPUs and advanced reasoning capabilities, intensifying AI competition days after failed OpenAI bid.

Scale.ai CEO Alexandr Wang praised the release, tweeting: “Grok 3 is a new best model in the world from the @xai team!” He noted its superior performance on various benchmarks and expressed enthusiasm for future collaboration. In key performance benchmarks, Grok 3 and its mini variant show superior scores across mathematics, science and coding tests compared to competing models from Google, OpenAI, Anthropic and DeepSeek. Just days after his failed $97.4 billion bid to acquire OpenAI, Musk has unveiled a model that challenges its supremacy — suggesting that in the high-stakes race for AI dominance, even a rejected suitor can become a formidable rival.
