BREAKING: "SMARTEST AI ON EARTH" GROK 3 HERE - 10x COMPUTE!
Demo : Monday, February 17 8pm PST only on X
The MUCH ANTICIPATED drop of Grok 3 by xAI is here and will demo 8pm PST Mon Feb 17 on X!
Grok 3 represents the latest advancement in the series of AI models developed by xAI, following the footsteps of its predecessors, Grok and Grok 2.
[xAI’s Colossus supercluster (the world’s largest AI supercomputer) in Memphis, Tennessee - is being touted as FIVE TIMES MORE POWERFUL THAN COMPETITORS]
Grok 3 Development and Capabilities
Training: Grok 3 was trained on the Colossus supercluster, employing a massive computational setup with 100,000 NVIDIA H100 GPUs.
This setup signifies a significant leap from previous models in terms of compute power, aiming to enhance the model's scalability, precision, and innovation.
The training process involved 10 times the compute power used for Grok 2, highlighting a focus on improving reasoning capabilities and performance.
Performance: Elon Musk has claimed that Grok 3 outperforms any other AI model released at the time, with particular emphasis on its "very powerful reasoning capabilities."
Has been described as "scary smart," indicating significant advancements in understanding complex queries and providing nuanced responses.
Release: Will demo 8pm Monday, Feb 17 on X.
Features and Applications
Multimodal Interaction: Grok 3 aims to refine multimodal AI capabilities, processing and understanding data from multiple sources, including text, images, and potentially audio, suggesting a versatile application in various sectors.
Industry Impact: It's expected to have applications across industries like finance for predictive analytics, customer service for better interaction, and potentially in addressing global issues like climate change and poverty through data analysis and strategy formulation.
User Access: Like its predecessors, Grok 3 is intended to integrate with the X platform (formerly Twitter), providing real-time information and possibly enhanced features like image generation through Aurora, xAI's text-to-image model.
Public Perception: Posts on X reflect excitement and high expectations for Grok 3, with some users and commentators highlighting its potential to be a game-changer in AI, especially with its compute power and innovative data strategies.
However, there's also skepticism regarding whether such brute-force scaling is the most effective path to artificial general intelligence (AGI).
Grok 3 is poised to be a significant step forward in AI, focusing on enhanced reasoning, computational power, and multimodal interaction. Its development, release, and impact are subjects of keen interest and debate in the tech community, reflecting both the potential and the challenges of advanced AI models.
More on the xAI’s Colossus Supercluster
The first coherently chained 100,000 H100 Nvidia processors
(without installation cost or ancillary equipment) Just the gpus MINIMUM COST OF USD3 Billion
Based on xAI alone, the state of Tennessee is now the #1 state in America with the most number of nvidia gpus
THIS WAS ALL BUILT IN AND INCREDIBLE 122 DAYS! (ordinarily it would take months if not years)
xAI PLANS TO DOUBLE THE NUMBER — TO 200,000 GPUS!

The H100's price can vary significantly based on market demand, supply, and whether it's bought directly from NVIDIA, through OEMs, or in the aftermarket.
[-AIC you’d be surprised to hear me say I would not be surprised if it were not a USD3B handshake deal, Elon’s credit is good w NV — and in a parallel to the film business what are folks negotiating for the “back end”? we may never know.]
Prices ranging from $20,000 to $40,000 per H100 GPU.
Calculation for 100,000 H100 GPUs: Number of GPUs: 100,000 Cost per GPU: $30,000 Total Cost: 100,000 * $30,000 = $3,000,000,000 or $3 billion.
This figure is a rough estimate. The actual cost could be higher or lower depending on bulk discounts, market conditions at the time of purchase, or if newer, potentially more expensive models like the B100 or GB200 are considered [-AIC or an “Elon Deal”.]
This price doesn't include the additional costs for infrastructure like (1) power supplies (2) power (3) cooling systems (4) server racks (5) data center space (6) personnel (bear in mind this was expedited over just 122 days!)
