X Enters the Arena with GROK

X announced that GROK, inspired by ‘Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy,' is designed to provide answers to a wide range of inquiries and, intriguingly, even propose relevant questions.

Additionally, it is suggested that GROK is willing to address sensitive or contentious topics that other models like GPT-4 or Google PaLM might shy away from. Although the exact meaning of "spicy" is uncertain, it could be understood as an effort to cover more controversial inquiries.

X highlights that their goal for GROK is to be a valuable research assistant, assisting users in efficiently accessing relevant information, processing data, and generating fresh ideas.
