Now developers and researchers will be able to use the architecture on which Grok works in their own projects.
xAI, an artificial intelligence company owned by Elon Musk, has published the source code of its chatbot on GitHub. The announcement says that the release contains the “code and network architecture” of the Grok-1 model “with 314 billion parameters.” As VentureBeat points out, the model is released under the Apache 2.0 license, which allows commercial use but does not include training data or connectivity to X for real-time data.
A previous announcement by xAI in November noted that Grok’s large language model “has been under development for the past 4 months” and is designed to “generate texts and answer questions.”
Musk has previously publicly criticized AI companies for being closed-minded, which sounds like one of the allegations in his lawsuit against OpenAI (Elon co-founded the startup, but when his offer to merge OpenAI with Tesla and lead the joint venture was rejected, he left company and did not provide the promised financing).
Grok was originally released as an alternative to the then-popular ChatGPT – however, it was positioned as a chatbot with a sense of humor and was available only to owners of a premium subscription to X (formerly Twitter).
Many well-known companies have also open sourced some of their AI models – including Meta for LLaMa, Mistral, Falcon and AI2. In February, Google also released two new unlocked models called Gemma2B and Gemma7B. At the same time, some businesses are interested in Grok’s open source — CEO of Perplexity Arvind Srinivas (the company offers an assistant and search engine with AI) wrote on X that they will configure the Musk chatbot for their search and make it available to Pro subscription users.
