Washington, August 24 (QNA) - Elon Musk's artificial intelligence startup xAI announced Sunday that it has open-sourced its Grok 2.5 model, making it available for researchers and developers to study and build upon.

The move follows last year's release of Grok 1 as part of Musk's stated commitment to open-source AI development.

Grok 2.5, an AI-powered chatbot similar to ChatGPT, can answer questions, generate text, and analyze data. The model is integrated primarily into the X platform application.

Musk also said that Grok 3 will be released as open-source in about six months, with Grok 5 expected by the end of the year. (QNA)
