@@playpaltalk That is an interesting view. What evidence do you have to make that statement? Why do you say that?

[@michaelspoden1694]

I don't understand why it states you only get 10 queries online. I myself have gotten much more and I I've only had free version of X and I asked it after it incorrectly told me about the 10 and told me 25 for every 2 hours. Also I had found two sites that said 10 queries of regular and 10 of the mini but I also had created like 6 image creation queries amongst my 15 questions. Maybe you should test it out and see what happens. I'm going to try again as well.

[@jmriodeiros]

great video..thanks a lot¡¡

[@sovorel-EDU]

Thank you, Jose. Grok is pretty powerful and can make some great images. It is a great additional AI tool for all of us to use. I appreciate you commenting.

[@ordos42]

Great presentation thank you

[@sovorel-EDU]

You are very welcome, Ordos. Grok is powerful, and I think big things will be on our way from x.ai in 2025.

[@jaykannan63]

Wow! It’s really interesting. I’m hearing grout for the first time thank you so much for sharing. I will explore it later. ❤

[@sovorel-EDU]

Yeah, many people didn't know about it because, at first, it didn't have a free tier, and it is a little hidden since it is within Twitter (X). They are going to come out with a stand-alone app for Grok soon.

[@sovorel-EDU]

Special Note: I just found out that Grok has switched image generators. Instead of Flux, they are now using an AI image generator called "Aurora," as of 9 December 2024, (x.ai/blog/grok-image-generation-release). Special thanks to commenter "@mrGapMan1" (Mikolai) for informing me of the update.

[@mobiusx8117]

I like grok. It is very useful when confirming or generating content for X posts, and with the xAI Colossus driving advancement, I expect to see more impressive growth from grok in the near future.

[@sovorel-EDU]

Yes, it is powerful in that it is also connected with Twitter/X, both in its pre-trained data and live connection. Thank you very much for posting, Mobius X.

Basically Grok isn't woke. Its an excellent Ai. Like & subscribed.

[@sovorel-EDU]

Yes, there are lots of benefits. Some argue that the guardrails are too loose but that is also how you get more truthful information. An important balance is needed that Grok is working hard to accomplish. Thank you so much for posting, liking, and subscribing, MJ. I greatly appreciate it.

[@playpaltalk]

@@MJFUYT You are 💯% right Grok was trained to hate and blaming woke for making his oldest son a beautiful young lady because he was too busy to pay attention to his son when he needed him the most.

[@paulreed9144]

Grok is much faster, and more robust in its answers. I also like the way it displays web links. It does not, however, store your queries nor answers like ChatGPT does.

[@sovorel-EDU]

Yes, Paul, I, too, like its very quick answers. I am hoping that when Grok 3 comes out it will have more features (like ChatGPT's new canvas). We shall see. Thank you for posting.

[@goukux5908]

It does store your queue

[@sovorel-EDU]

@@goukux5908@goukux5908 You are right, Gouku X. It does store your questions in an accessible history location (along with the images you created). Unless you go into its settings and change that feature (instructions here: help.x.com/en/using-x/about-grok). Grok doesn't currently have any special feature that would allow you to save special instructions on how to act like you can do with ChatGPT (special instructions). I'm hoping the new version of Grok will have more advanced personalization capabilities like that. There might be more setting for Grok that are available if you are a premium user of Twitter (X), but I only have access to the free version of Grok at this time.

[@JCHeberle]

I have been using Grok 2 as a Bible study tool. It has been trained with biblical Geek and Hebrew as well as everything you'd find discussed on the Internet. I'm hoping for the day when it will have access to Copyrighted books, etc. It does seem to have access to many versions of the Bible that are copyrighted. You can debate with it, tell it to limit itself to what is explicitly in the Bible and ignore all the theology that came after the 1st Century. You have to push it to do that, It wants to give the "consensus orthodox" answers and likes to push the creeds and soforth. It pretty much will pull in things like the Trinity and you have to remind it not to if you want it to stick with what came before the 3rd-5th Centuries. And it doesn't take offense! 🙂

[@sovorel-EDU]

Hello, Craig. Thank you for posting. It is great to hear that you are able to use Grok to assist with your religious studies. I think AI is a super powerful tool to assist us in all aspects of education. As always, I have to emphasize the importance of AI Literacy (Awareness, Capability, Knowledge, and Critical Thinking) and the need to always verify all information that AI provides. I found it interesting that it is trying to pull in the creeds and other aspects. In that case, you will need to use an advanced prompt formula to specify the data sources for your desired response. In the future, I hope that Grok will have "special instructions" features so that you can place that requirement within your profile so that all responses will be geared in that way.

[@JCHeberle]

@@sovorel-EDU , It is a powerful tool. It's weakness is that it is trained by humans with what has been created by humans and it is therefore biased by the data. It only gets really interesting if you know enough about what you are asking it so you can ask a more specific question in response to what it says. It really likes the standard arguments that humans use when defending their theology. But I find that fascinating too. It's the Solomon Asch Conformity Experiements in action. It uses the arguments of the orthodox of any given subject. If you question it's "interpretation" of something it justifies and defends the orthodoxy with the arguments of the orthodox. Question the virgin birth of Mary and it will appeal to the Church fathers, etc. You have to keep telling it to only make an appeal to what is explicitly written in the scriptures. If you make a statement about it's conclusion it eventually sees the direction you're going and does a great job at evaluating the consequences of whatever it is you are proposing. There are at least a thousand Systematic Theology Books on Amazon, I wish it had been trained with that data then I could ask it to tell me the how they differ, etc. (since they must differ or they would be suing one another for copyright violations). 😀 Best regards, Craig

Grok's name for the robot. 🙂I used to program in Ada. The language was named after Ada Lovelace an English Mathematician and Programmer. A·da /ˈādə/ noun a high-level computer programming language used chiefly in real-time computerized control systems, e.g. for aircraft navigation.

[@TurboTimoFC]

I like its bullet points answer. It is so easy to read. Image generation is okayish (I use it to create many logos) I am waiting for the Grok Android App. I will try to stick to Grok for a long time if they continue to have a balanced approach. Grok suits my use cases ❤

[@sovorel-EDU]

I agree, Pramodh. It does have some nice results. The images are sometimes really great, but you have to play around with it. I am surprised that they haven't come out with their stand-alone Android app yet. That it supposed to happen at any time now. Thank you for posting.

[@Stephen_Tyrone]

I hope someone is developing an AI tool that can defend against AI weapons.

[@sovorel-EDU]

Yes, Stephen, that is a legitimate concern. There is a growing field in data safety/security and anti-autonomous weapons that are trying to address this issue.

[@mobiusx8117]

My experience is that grok is not "woke", and gives more unbiased (non politically correct) answers. I want information, not a woke narrative, so I like grok more than gemini (which won't even answers many questions on subjects like politics).

[@MJFUYT]

💯

[@sovorel-EDU]

I do like the way it phrases things and I was very impressed with the creative short story it wrote and its suggestions for improving the hands-on course. Very powerful capabilities.

[@richarddobos264]

They stopped using Flux and switched to something else unfortunetly. The image quality is just not good at all, flux was crazy good.

[@bfoster417]

It does hurt me to say this but grok is useful, to do things like generate a image on Gemini of a person is some sort of big deal, but on grok it just does it, I'm NOOOO fan of Elon Musk but on this he's actually done something right, and by right I mean good.

[@sixdegrees6434]

Off topic but I’ve been wondering lately, what is this trend over the last decade to pronounce the letter a like the letter u. Or uh. The example here is you pronounce Ada like udah. Do you feel it’s a nicer sound or what is your reasoning behind it? Some other examples would be; exAHmple, commAHnder, commAHnche among many others. If you look back to the 2010s and earlier, it was a very rare pronunciation, only in some areas of England. Anyway, random 3am thoughts

Great question, Sixdegrees. I didn't really know how to pronounce "Ada" since it is an unfamiliar name to me. I just guessed.

SCHADENFREUDE is the primary language Elon Musk is using to train Grok with bias and cruelty.

[@greatcondor8678]

You are the biased one.

[@sovorel-EDU]

Hello Playpaltalk. Thank you for posting. Can you please explain what you mean and provide some examples? According to Grok's website, "Grok has primarily been pre-trained on a large corpus of publicly available information, including raw web page data, metadata extracts, and text extracts from the Internet. This data helps Grok learn about associations between words and updates its numbers and weights to support natural language processing.. Before using the training data, we apply quality filters and remove information that we do not want our models to learn from, such as violent content. We also apply security testing and evaluation measures. While Grok's training data may include personal information that is publicly available (for example, information about politicians, celebrities or other public figures), xAI takes steps to minimize the processing of personal and sensitive data for training purposes. For clarity, we do not actively seek out personal information to train our models or use personal information to build individual profiles."

[@playpaltalk]

Grok is the consciousness of Elon Musk seeking revenge for the poor billionaire a victim of Bidenomics with only $460 billions to prove it.

[@sovorel-EDU]

@@playpaltalk Interesting. When I ask Grok if it is the consciousness of Elon Musk, it states, "No, Grok is not the consciousness of Elon Musk. I am Grok, an AI developed by xAI, designed to provide helpful and truthful answers. My "personality" and responses are crafted to reflect a unique perspective, inspired by science fiction, but I am a distinct entity from any human, including Elon Musk. Think of me more like a helpful, universe-exploring sidekick, not a direct embodiment of any individual's consciousness."
