On Monday night, Elon Musk's artificial intelligence startup, xAI, unveiled its latest model, Grok3, with the billionaire touting it as the "smartest AI on Earth," and in an AI evaluation, achieved a record-breaking score, outperforming models from OpenAI and China's DeepSeek. Remember, Musk is simultaneously juggling DOGE and several ventures, including autonomous vehicles, space exploration, neurotechnology, robotics, tunneling, and his social media platform, X.
Musk explained the mission of Grok:
"The mission of xAI and Grok is to understand the universe. We want to answer the biggest questions: Where are the aliens? What's the meaning of life? How does the universe end? To do that, we must rigorously pursue truth."
The xAI team revealed that Grok3 outperformed Alphabet's Google Gemini, DeepSeek's V3 model, Anthropic's Claude, and OpenAI's GPT-4o across math, science, and coding benchmarks.
Musk noted that Grok3 has "more than 10 times" the computing power of its predecessor and completed pre-training earlier this year.
The LLM blind test by LMArena found Grok3 achieved a record milestone of 1400 score.
"And it's still climbing. So we have to keep updating it. It's 1400 and climbing," Musk said.
Musk said, "We're continually improving the models every day, and literally within 24 hours, you'll see improvements.”
"The new chatbot appears to put Grok ahead of OpenAI's latest ChatGPT and ramps up an increasingly bitter rivalry between the two companies," Bloomberg noted. Just last week, Musk offered to purchase OpenAI's nonprofit arm for $97.4 billion. However, the offer was quickly rejected by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman.
Andrej Karpathy, former Director of AI at Tesla, wrote a lengthy post on X about his experience with early access to Grok3.
Here's the summary of the post:
Thinking Capability: Grok 3 has an advanced thinking model on par with top OpenAI models, successfully handling complex tasks like creating a Settlers of Catan game webpage with dynamic hex grids. However, it failed at solving an emoji mystery involving Unicode variation selectors.
Tic Tac Toe: Grok 3 could solve simple Tic Tac Toe puzzles but struggled with generating "tricky" boards, similar to OpenAI's o1-pro.
Knowledge Retrieval: When tested with knowledge-based questions related to the GPT-2 paper, Grok 3 performed well, including estimating the computational cost of training GPT-2 without internet searching, which other models like o1-pro failed at.
Riemann Hypothesis: Grok 3 attempted to solve the Riemann hypothesis, showing initiative by not giving up on challenging problems, unlike some other models.
DeepSearch: This feature combines research capabilities with thinking, providing high-quality responses to various lookup questions. However, it had issues with referencing X as a source and occasionally hallucinated non-existent URLs.
Humor: Grok 3's humor capability did not show improvement, failing to generate novel or sophisticated jokes, which is a common challenge for LLMs.
Ethical Sensitivity: The model was overly sensitive to complex ethical issues, avoiding questions that might involve ethical dilemmas.
SVG Generation: Grok 3 failed at generating an SVG of a pelican riding a bicycle, a test of spatial layout abilities, though it performed better than some but not as well as Claude.
Karpathy concluded that Grok 3, with its thinking capabilities, is around the state-of-the-art level, slightly outperforming models like DeepSeek-R1 and Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking, considering xAI started from scratch about a year ago - an unprecedented achievement.

 was traumatized by the abrupt deaths of multiple students who had crushes on her. Plagued by rumors that she was a “witch,” Mi Jeong decided to quit school and stay cooped up inside at home. Even then, her mysterious “curse” followed her, and her father tragically died after saving her from a venomous snake bite.
In a preview that aired at the end of the episode, it was revealed that it was not Mi Jeong’s idea to leave the village; instead, it turned out that she had been pressured to leave by the other villagers. Most shocking of all, Lee Dong Jin (GOT7’s Jinyoung)’s mother Mi Sook (Jang Hye Jin) was seen standing at the forefront of the group asking Mi Jeong to leave. Later, while lying in a hospital bed, Mi Sook confessed to her son, “I was the one who chased that girl away.”
As Mi Sook was always kind, friendly, and generous to not only her son but also her neighbors, her unexpected and seemingly uncharacteristic involvement in Mi Jeong’s departure raised the question of whether something else had happened in the village after her father’s death.
In newly released stills from the drama’s upcoming third episode, a remorseful Mi Sook brings up the incident with Mi Jeong, which had remained painfully buried in her heart. As she lies in the hospital with Dong Jin by her side, Mi Sook catches her son off guard with her shocking confession—and what she has to say ultimately makes Dong Jin determined to figure out and undo the “curse” that afflicts Mi Jeong.
The drama’s production team teased, “This week, the heartbreaking reason why Mi Jeong had no choice but to leave the village—and why Dong Jin wants so badly to help Mi Jeong return to an ordinary life—will be revealed.”
“Dong Jin will begin to dig into Mi Jeong’s ‘pattern of death’ in earnest,” they continued. “The true mystery will begin starting from Episode 3.”
The third episode of “The Witch” will air on February 22 at 9:10 p.m. KST.
