XAI released Grok 4.6, which matches frontier performance at $2 for input and $6 for output per million tokens. Emad Mostaque states the upcoming Grok 4.7 will scale to 2 trillion parameters and train on SpaceX engineering data.
xAI released Grok 4.6, securing its position in the frontier model race alongside OpenAI and Anthropic. The model matches GPT-5.6 Soul on the Artificial Analysis index and slightly outperforms both GPT-5.6 and Fable 5 on agentic task benchmarks.
At $2 per million input and $6 per million output tokens, Grok 4.6 is 60% cheaper than GPT-5.6 Soul. Gavin Baker highlights that xAI maintains cost and speed dominance over OpenAI even after recent price cuts.
Elon Musk announced that Grok 4.7 is scheduled for release in three to four weeks. The upcoming model will integrate proprietary SpaceX engineering data to improve real-world physical and engineering performance.
xAI and Cursor launched Grokbot, a Telegram style interface running collaborative agents on virtual cloud computers. The system automates workflows without APIs by training agents directly on screen recordings.
Martin Casado argues Grokbot successfully establishes the workplace AI coworker abstraction. However, critics like Gerbach Shahal warn that high token onboarding costs make the system economically unsustainable, while others cite website blocks from data center IP addresses.
Grokbot is currently gated behind expensive tier subscriptions. Users must pay for either a 300 dollar monthly Grok heavy account or a 200 dollar monthly Cursor Ultra account to access the platform.
The US Department of Justice defended xAI from an environmental lawsuit by arguing that Grok is vital to national security. A Pentagon filing revealed the military used Grok to assist with targeting decisions for recent strikes on Iran.
