Elon Musk has announced that his AI venture, xAI, will release its ChatGPT competitor, "Grok," to the public domain this week. This strategic move by Musk, who has consistently criticized the profit-driven use of technology by major tech corporations, marks a significant shift in the landscape of AI development and accessibility. By open-sourcing Grok, xAI is set to join the ranks of companies like Meta and Mistral, which have already made their AI models freely available for modification and use by the global community.
