Musk's announcement comes hours after xAI debuted its latest flagship AI model, Grok 4. The 54-year-old discussed the recent innovation during a nearly hour-long livestream shared on xAI's X page, during which he did not mention the chatbot's integration into Tesla vehicles.

B illionaire Tesla owner Elon Musk said Thursday that Tesla vehicles will soon feature the artificial intelligence chatbot Grok, developed by Musk’s AI startup xAI. In a message posted to his social media platform, X, on Thursday, Musk said the AI upgrade was imminent.

Grok 4 is xAI’s most advanced model yet, but early praise is clashing with old scandals and fresh tests of its limits.

The release comes months after the AI startup launched its previous iteration, suggesting an ongoing lightning pace of AI development.

Elon Musk's xAI just launched Grok 4, claiming it is the most powerful AI model yet, further claiming to outperform PhDs and rival giants, which include Open AI's ChatGPT and Google's Gemini 2.5 Pro amongst many others.

AI has officially lunched Grok 4 during a livestream with Elon Musk, who called it the "smartest AI in the world."

Elon Musk said in a post on X early Thursday morning that Grok – the chatbot from his AI company, xAI – will be coming to Tesla vehicles “very soon.” “Next week at the latest,” he said.

Elon Musk’s live demo of Grok 4, the latest big-ticket model from his AI startup, began with high-intensity music, claims of a “ludicrous rate of progress,” and a lot of chatter on X about Grok’s scandal-filled week.
