Elon Musk’s xAI To Launch Grok 4 On July 9 — Here’s What To Expect
Grok 4 seeks to exceed the performance of current models from leading companies such as OpenAI and Anthropic.
Elon Musk has announced that the newest iteration of xAI’s Grok language model is set to be released on July 9. The launch for Grok 4 is planned for 8:00 p.m. Pacific Time, which corresponds to 8:30 a.m. IST on July 10.
Musk confirmed Grok 4’s launch in his X post, writing “Grok 4 release livestream on Wednesday at 8pm PT @xAI”.
This follows the billionaire’s post last month in which he stated that Grok 4 would be revealed “just after 4 July”.
Recently, doubts have arisen regarding Grok announcements after Musk had committed to a Grok 3.5 release for SuperGrok users in May. However, it now appears the company is now progressing straight to Grok 4 as competition in the AI space rises.
What To Expect From Grok 4
The upcoming AI model is intended to be a significant advancement for large language models. As per reports, Grok 4 promises to deliver major improvements in reasoning and coding, as well as multimodal features that may transform user engagement with AI.
Grok 4 also seeks to exceed the performance of current models from leading companies such as OpenAI and Anthropic.
While Grok 3 achieved a score of 93.3% on AIME 2025 and 84.6% on GPQA, Grok 4 looks to surpass that. The AI model is tipped to focus heavily on first-principles reasoning and better address technical challenges such as complex mathematical and scientific queries.
Grok 4 is rumoured to support text modality, and its future capabilities will include vision, image generation, and more.
xAI Console, which helps developers access Grok API, reportedly now has posts on Grok 4 availability. These were brought to notice by testers on X.
One of the messages read: “Our latest and greatest flagship model, offering unparalleled performance in natural language, math, and reasoning—the perfect jack of all trades”.
Yet another read, “A model purpose-built to be your coding companion. Ask it questions about your code or embed directly into your code editor”.
