Exactly 10 days ago, Elon Musk said Grok 4.8 is taking longer than expected, but "Grok 4.8 will not be a disappointment." It will run on 2.5T parameters and was trained on a C++ software stack.
@techdevnotes I know it’s taken longer than expected, but Grok 4.8 will not be a disappointment.
We’re not optimizing for benchmarks and I really don’t care how Grok does on those, but it will be incredibly useful.
