Musk’s Grok AI goes open source
The open sourcing of Grok is also clearly a helpful ideological stance for Musk in his lawsuit and general criticisms of OpenAI.
Request an invite Grok was open sourced under an Apache License 2.0, which enables commercial use, modifications, and distribution, though it cannot be trademarked and there is no liability or warranty that users receive with it. Grok’s architecture, developed using a custom training stack atop JAX and Rust in October 2023, incorporates innovative approaches to neural network design. Grok was initially released as a proprietary or “closed source” model back in November 2023 and it was, until now, accessible only on Musk’s separate but related social network X (formerly Twitter), specifically through the X Premium+ paid subscription service, which costs $16 per month or $168 per year.
