As previously rumored, you can now download a standalone app for your iPhone or iPad to access Elon Musk’s Grok AI.

Optionally, you can take a photo or import a photo or file directly from the app. You can also ask the AI ​​to create different images. All answers use the recently launched Grok 2 model.

Expanding the reach of the Chatbot

A Autonomous app for Elon Musk’s AI it was rumored at the end of last year. At the beginning of December, the Grok has become free for anyone with an X account. First, you need a paid subscription to X that starts at $7 per month.

Grok was launched at the end of 2023, but was delayed by some other popular choices in both users and features. Introducing a standalone app that doesn’t require an X account could help expand its reach to more users.

Unlike the competitors, Grok has a large dose of sarcasm and wit, thanks to Musk’s influence on the chatbot.

But while the chatbot is free, it is very different from ChatGPT and others it has a few key problems. It has weak ethical safeguards and image generation has a substantial lack of content moderation. It is also formed with information from X, which is full of bots and scams.
