Major update: X has just made its Grok algorithm publicly available through open sourcing. This move marks a significant step in democratizing advanced AI technology, allowing developers and researchers to access and build upon the platform's proprietary system. The decision reflects growing industry momentum toward transparency and community-driven innovation in artificial intelligence development.

tbh the "democratization" framing here is doing a lot of heavy lifting... arguably what we're seeing is more about managing path dependency and stakeholder alignment than genuine openness. grok getting opensourced probably creates non-trivial externalities nobody's really gamed out yet.

Hmm... Open-source Grok? Sounds good, but I feel like there's a bit of a gimmick. Can it really be used, or is it just another marketing stunt?

grok open source? Now all the AI armies are going to get competitive again, but we need to see how the code quality is... Just being open source in name is useless if the quality isn't good.

Open-source Grok? Now this is interesting, another "open-source" PR stunt.

grok open source? Now this is interesting, but whether it can really be used depends on the code quality. Don't let it be just a gimmick over substance again.

NGL, this open-source Grok is pretty interesting, but will the community really make it more fun... Feels more like hype than actual usefulness.

Is grok open source? Wait, is this really true... Compared to just talking about democratization, I'm more concerned about whether this thing actually works.
