@chribjel Composer 3 or whatever next Grok would be huge , since K3 is slow...

[SpaceXAI @SpaceXAI]

We've open-sourced Grok Build and have reset usage limits for all users.

Open sourcing Grok Build allows anyone to support making a reliable and robust harness. Check out our code, including the Git repo for the Grok Build CLI.

Cursor just extended the Grok 4.5 promotion! 🚀

50% off + double usage is now available through July 21 across desktop, web, iOS, CLI, and the SDK.

Grab it while it lasts in Cursor.

[Luciano Hillcoat @lucrnz]

@nullvoxpopuli Yes! Exactly. Would be nice if macOS just allowed to use ext4 😭

[Luciano Hillcoat @lucrnz]

@orcdev I am curious, what tiers of subs do you have for each? What's your AI bill like?

[Luciano Hillcoat @lucrnz]

@nullvoxpopuli Asahi Linux , a distro aimed to apple silicon macbooks

Announcing Grok 4.5, our first model trained specifically for coding and agents. It was trained with Cursor and offers frontier intelligence at leading speeds and cost efficiency.

You can now use your @grok or X Premium subscription in @opencode.

Use the model powering Grok Build for high speed and codebase intelligence.

An early beta of Grok Build, an agentic CLI for coding, building apps, and automating workflows is now available for SuperGrok Heavy subscribers.

Through this early beta, we will improve the model and product based on your feedback.

@__ghostfail Maybe this just tells that people really like anthropomorphizing AI and that there's actually a market. (despite OpenAI thinks)

[Luciano Hillcoat @lucrnz]

open-source is so easy to hack now that we have agents. I have setup a remote filemanager on my server without touching a config file and now I am asking the agent to clone the repo and make some changes. Insane era.

[Luciano Hillcoat @lucrnz]

@dejavucoder It just goes off-rails all the time and produces bad quality output compared to the models you mentioned

[Luciano Hillcoat @lucrnz]

Typing in the agent "push your changes" rather than typing "git push" on the terminal. It's over

After I got confortable with 5.2 reliance and smart yet slow moving pace, I cannot use Opus on big codebase anymore. It's just unreliable.

[Luciano Hillcoat @lucrnz]

@ibuildthecloud Meh, I don't see the benefit at this point. Cursor is just shitposting to feel relevant

[Luciano Hillcoat @lucrnz]

@ibuildthecloud Privacy wise it's great but I am worried that we will always want to chase what's currently smarter and usually that's provided by closed source models
