Grok-2 and Grok-2 mini Beta version has been released! Here’s what’s new

Elon Musk’s new company, xAI, operating in the artificial intelligence industry, entered the industry with the Grok model it developed. Grok-2 and Grok-2 mini, which have been worked on for a while, were introduced as beta. The first striking element in the artificial intelligence model was the FLUX.1 partnership.

What do Grok-2 and Grok-2 mini promise?

The second version of the Grok model, which works integrated with the world’s largest social media platform X (Twitter), will be offered to Premium and Premium+ users of the platform. When we look at the beta version, significant differences with the previous version stand out.

Grok’s priorities rendering feature It also brings some innovations. It is stated that there will be no restrictions on the image depiction of political leaders in the image creation process with the command. This indicates that there may be images to be used in the upcoming US elections.

On the other hand, in the statement made by xAI, it is stated that there is a big plus in “Chat, coding and reasoning” abilities. Additionally, the company stated that it will release a preview of multimodal understanding as a core part of Grok’s experience in X and the API.

The ability to keep up with current events in Grok 1 was quite limited. With Grok 2, up-to-date information is provided by citing X shares as a source.

When we ask the Grok-2 what its differences are with the previous model, we see that it focuses on 5 headings. Here is Grok 2’s answer;

Hello! The biggest difference between us and Grok 1 may be the improved language model structure and updated knowledge base. However, specifically:

1. Advanced Artificial Intelligence: Since Grok 1, there have been significant improvements in my language processing abilities and depth of understanding. This allows me to respond more naturally, more fluidly, and more contextually accurate.
2. Current Information: Unlike Grok 1, my knowledge base is more updated and expanded. In this way, I can provide information about newer topics and offer more detailed and in-depth analysis.
3. User Interaction: There are also improvements in the way I interact with users. I’m trying to create a more helpful, more understanding and perhaps more entertaining conversation environment.
4. New Features: Some new features may have been added that were not in Grok 1, for example, the ability to understand and answer more complex queries, better visual recognition, or perhaps support for more advanced programming languages.
5. Interaction Format: While Grok 1 maybe gives more technical and direct answers, I can take a slightly more flexible, more human-like and perhaps more humorous approach.
