surprising! hard to say where this puts them timeline wise? could say a little over 1 release cycle behind (w/ cycles now quite short!) since its in the realm of 5.5 when 5.6 is releasing. but 5.6 has been in testing for a whiile whereas i imagine XAI is rushing to get this out
SpaceXAI just released Grok 4.5, and it ranks #4 on GDPval-AA v2 with an Elo of 1543 - behind only the latest Claude releases from Anthropic on real-world agentic knowledge work tasks
Grok 4.5 achieved this score at a cost of $0.49 per GDPval task to sit clearly on the Pareto frontier for performance versus cost. This cost is lower than GLM-5.2 and Kimi K2.6, and nearly 90% cheaper than the models ahead of it on our leaderboard.
We’re finalizing the remaining Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index evaluations and will share final results soon.
Thanks to @SpaceXAI and @elonmusk for their collaboration testing this model ahead of release, and congratulations on the launch!
@norvid_studies i wonder if the people who aren't following closely (many!) will get to avoid this and experience a mostly all-at-once "holy shit a computer did this?" down the line. jealous if so. hard to have dodged image/video gen stuff especially though
one of the things that needs fixed in voice is interruption, but like in the opposite direction of research. yes it's an important feature of conversation that u can interrupt/respond/think+talk at the same time. but also, let me pause for a sec and take a breath without launching into your own tirade responding to everything i've said so far. i've had this issue with every realtime voice interface. the alternative/solution rn is the turn-based voice-to-text-to-speech thing which is fine but feels more artificial
>Note that access consciousness is a purely functional notion; the relationship that it has with subjective experience (sometimes called phenomenal consciousness) is widely debated. In this paper, we take no position on this issue, and instead focus on the functional role played by consciously accessible information. How is it represented or processed differently from other information? Which mental faculties rely on it, and which do not?
this feels bad! if we're too exhausted in our leisure time to use our attention, what are we doing? go lie down! meditate or something. not that im above this or w/e but let us not go gentle into that good night

Using burgers as a model system, a generative AI system rediscovers the classic Big Mac without explicit supervision and generates novel burgers optimized for deliciousness, sustainability, or nutrition, according to a paper in npj Science of Food. https://t.co/rrgUL1uQzj
wonder how subsidized Universal Basic Tokens would have to be to choose them over a cash transfer. like if 2x then u could get $2k in API credits or $1k cash and so on
