Overview
xAI is tracked in LLMWIKI's News index. This feed presents xAI's recent AI-related announcements in reverse-chronological, timeline form — built for scanning quickly rather than reading as a narrative. For fuller context on why each item matters, see the linked company news summary above.
Each entry below is tagged by type (Launch, Update, Report, Partnership, or Research) so you can scan for the kind of news you're actually looking for rather than reading the full list top to bottom.
Timeline
Grok 4.5 launches publicly
SpaceXAI released Grok 4.5, its most capable model yet, built on a 1.5-trillion-parameter foundation and trained partly on real Cursor developer session data. Elon Musk described it as "roughly comparable to Opus 4.7, but much faster" and considerably more token-efficient.
Grok 4.5 priced well below rivals
The model is priced at $2 per million input tokens and $6 per million output tokens, over 60% cheaper than Claude Opus 4.8 or GPT-5.5, while landing 4th on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, ahead of every Gemini and open-weight model.
Grok 4.5 takes the top spot on Long-Horizon Terminal-Bench
Musk announced Grok 4.5 reached #1 on a benchmark specifically measuring performance on complex, extended, multi-step tasks.
Grok Imagine declared feature-complete
xAI's image and video generation product, Grok Imagine, was described as "done" in its current form, marking one of three product lines (alongside Grok Build and the core model) shipping updates in the same week.
EU availability targeted
xAI has targeted mid-July 2026 for making Grok 4.5 available in the European Union, alongside integration into Cursor, Grok Build, and the xAI API console.
About This Feed
This feed focuses specifically on xAI's AI-related product and business news — model launches, feature updates, pricing changes, and significant reported developments — rather than general company news unrelated to AI. Items are sourced from xAI's own announcements as well as reporting from established technology and business outlets, and each entry is paraphrased rather than quoted at length from its original source.
Considerations
Treat every item on this feed as a snapshot of what was publicly reported at the time it was added, not a live, continuously updated ticker. Specific figures, pricing, and benchmark claims reflect the company's or a news outlet's own reporting and haven't been independently re-verified by LLMWIKI.
