Elon Musk’s X chatbot Grok AI is now available for free users on X (formerly Twitter). Non-Premium subscribers can send up to 10 messages every two hours, following its initial rollout as an exclusive feature for Premium subscribers.

  • Expanded Access: Grok’s humorous AI capabilities are now open to a wider audience, competing with free alternatives like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, and Claude.
  • Text-to-Image Feature: Introduced earlier this year, Grok’s ability to generate images has faced mixed reactions.
  • Standalone App Plans: Reports indicate xAI is exploring a dedicated app for Grok, aligning with strategies of competitors like ChatGPT and Gemini.

This development highlights xAI’s push to broaden Grok’s reach and compete in the increasingly crowded AI assistant market.
