Grok-1.5 is an advanced version of the Grok-1 AI model and brings improved reasoning capabilities.

Elon Musk has announced that an upgraded version of his artificial intelligence company xAI’s chatbot Grok may be released next week.

The news was announced via a social media post from Musk on March 29, following xAI’s announcement of Grok-1.5 in a blog post. The enhanced AI chatbot will be available to "early testers and existing Grok users on social media platforms."

Additionally, Musk hinted at the continued development of Grok 2, a product he expects to surpass current AI standards in all aspects.

Grok-1.5

Grok-1.5 is an advanced version of the Grok-1 AI model with improved inference capabilities and a context length of 128,000 tokens.

xAI’s analysis shows that its advanced chatbot has significantly improved performance, especially in programming and math-related tasks. However, it’s slightly inferior compared to Google’s Gemini Pro 1.5 and OpenAI’s GPT-4.

According to the company:

“Grok-1.5 achieved a score of 50.6% on the MATH benchmark and 90% on the GSM8K benchmark, two math benchmarks covering a wide range of elementary school to high school competition problems. In addition, it scored 74.1% on the HumanEval benchmark, which evaluates code generation and problem-solving capabilities.”

Additionally, Grok-1.5 can leverage information from longer documents, and the model can handle longer, more complex prompts while maintaining its instruction tracking capabilities as the context window expands.

The company added:

“Grok-1.5 is built on a custom distributed training framework based on JAX, Rust, and Kubernetes. This training stack enables our team to build on ideas and train new architectures at scale with minimal effort.”

Grok is open source

Earlier this month, xAI took a major step forward by opening up the underlying code of Grok-1.

The decision comes in response to Musk's legal action against the OpenAI organization he once co-founded. . Musk claims that OpenAI has strayed from its original commitment to prioritize developing open source models over shareholder interests.

Meanwhile, xAI says the released code is "original base model checkpoint from the Grok-1 pre-training phase, which ended in October 2023. This means that the model has not been fine-tuned for any specific application (such as dialogue). ” It added that the model is licensed under the Apache License 2.0. #Grok1.5 #AI聊天机器人
