xAI open-sources base model of Grok, but without any training code
Reading Time: < 1 minutesElon Musk’s xAI has open-sourced the base code of Grok AI model, but without any training code. The company described it as the ‘314 billion parameter Mixture-of-Expert model’ on GitHub.
In a blog post, xAI said that the model wasn’t tuned for any particular application such as using it for conversations. The company noted that Grok-1 was trained on a ‘custom’ stack without specifying details. The model is licensed under Apache License 2.0, which permits commercial use cases.
Last week, Musk noted on X that xAI intended to open-source the Grok model this week. The company released Grok in a chatbot form last year, accessible to Premium+ users of X social network. Notably, the chatbot could access some of the X data, but the open-source model doesn’t include connections to the social network.
Many notable companies have open-sourced some of their AI models including Meta’s LLaMa, Mistral, Falcon, and AI2. In February, Google also released two new open models called Gemma2B and Gemma7B.
Some AI-powered tool makers are already talking about using Grok in their solutions. Perplexity CEO Arvind Srinivas posted on X that the company will fine-tune Grok for conversational search and make it available to Pro users.
Musk has been in a legal battle with OpenAI and sued the company earlier this month over the ‘betrayal’ of the nonprofit AI goal. Since then, he has called out OpenAI and Sam Altman on X multiple times.
