As an English-as-second-language speaker and writer, one thing Grok really shines at is capturing the tone and level of "formality" of a piece of text and the replicating it correctly. It seems to understand the little human subtleties of language in a way the other major providers don't. Chatgpt goes overly stiff and formal sounding, or ends up in a weird "aye guvnor" type informal language (Claude is sometimes bett…

Isn't it exhausting to view everything an ideological lens instead of reviewing technical achievements on their merits?

Grok 4.3 was completed ahead of its CEO’s lesson on this common safety resource: Asked if he knew anything about OpenAI's "safety card," Musk smiled and replied: "Safety card? Why would it be a card?" https://www.axios.com/2026/04/30/musk-openai-safety-grok Low relevancy in spite of cluster size and musical chair gas generators for time being: Later in his testimony, Musk was asked about a claim he made last summer t…

Seriously though, why is it a model "card", safety "card"? I had to lookup to learn that it comes from HuggingFace's vague definition of "README" in the model's repo. This is such a specific thing that I don't think anyone except a very small population would know - not the users, not the c-suites. I don't like Musk or Grok. But not knowing what's a safety card is not a signal of anything IMO.

He asked why it would be a card. URL slug of world’s hottest (non-Nvidia?) company:

  system-cards

You’d have to be asleep at the wheel. For years:

  Claude 2
  July 2023
  Read system card
But users don’t need to know you’re 100% right, you shouldn’t need to know this inside baseball (you didn’t pollute & compute & gain the responsibility).

If someone from Grok is reading, don't waste time on these chaff features. The market will eventually deliver better 3rd party solutions to all of these things. There is an audience that isn't interested in these walled garden features and are only interested on intelligence per dollar.

Lol I wonder when Anthropic discussed the idea of Claude Code internally, were there bozos saying "3rd parties will eventually deliver this so we shouldn't waste time one it."

Power users are hotswapping these models into their own agents (hermes, openclaw, etc) which have their own systems for project management, memory, interacting with tools, etc. The important metric is intelligence per dollar. Can I drop this model into my harness and have it be cheaper without losing intelligence. That is where the puck is heading.

I've also noticed that when I communicate with Grok in my native language, its tone is more natural than other models. I think this is due to the advantage of being trained on a large amount of Twitter data. However, as Twitter contains more and more AI-generated content now, I'm afraid continued training will make it less natural.

Sadly, it's more likely that people will just start talking like bots

You're absolutely right!

So did Bill Gates and Reid Hoffman.

Elon, bill, Reid and Trump should share a prison cell. Democrats have no loyalty to their own sex offenders. Look how we treated the California governed candidate, or Anthony weiner, or literally every other sex pest found in our party. Some of them who didn’t even deserve it get canceled like Al Franklin. Diddling and then defending it and doubling down is literally a maga problem.

While the tread is swapping between "OMG Claude good. OpenAI was done for" and "OMG Codex good. Anthropic was done for". I've never heard about Gemini and Grok. It works mostly similar performance, but people don't mention that much.

Still, my impression is, Gemini hallucinate too much while Grok is always less capable than competitors so it's not worth using it.

What’s the correlation between people defending Musk, Twitter and kiddie diddlers?

I don't know either, I don't see the correlation with X and Musk either, as if he is the one developing the platform and not thousand of workers and leaders. What does the CEO of a platform has to do with what people post on it? The CEO of HN is responsible for what you just posted?

Kinda funny how people are selective about it, when you land on a website, you check who is in charge of it and for each CEO change you redo a decision? When you host your Postgres in the cloud, I hope you check as well who is in charge of Railway or Supabase, who knows? :/

So, we have: - claude for corps and gov - codex for devs - grok for what, roleplay, racism? Those are the two things I've ever heard grok associated with around me.

If you need to ask about what people on Twitter are talking about, Grok is really good for that obviously. I use it all the time for "what are the cool kids on twitter saying is the best tiling window manager these days" or whatever. Also, if you have a question that's borderline shady, Grok will often deliver. "Can you find a grey market Windows license site for me" etc.

Interesting use case!

for reference, it's the 2nd fastest model tracked in the "Highlights" section of https://artificialanalysis.ai/

That section misses Cerebras and Groq which are up to 5x faster.

Very different tech and limitations though so wouldn’t make sense to compare 1:1 I think
