A bunch of idiots gave Elon Musk US$6b to further fund xAI - X/Twitter's AI offshoot that's developed the "Grok" LLM. It's a piece of shit compared to GPT-4, Mistral, Claude, Gemini or LLaMA, but Musk's involved so he did what he does best - bullshit - and got some funding for it. Musk does have a track record of making other people rich (Tesla & SpaceX), but we all know xAI won't achieve shit, will leverage Tesla's huge cluster of Nvidia GPUs for free anyways, so is really just US$6b to delay the collapse of the failing social media network.
