Musk's xAI company has confirmed that the latest AI model Grok 4 will hold a live press conference on July 10 at 11 AM Taiwan time, where everyone can watch the live broadcast directly on xAI's official X account (@xAI).

Foreign media (India Times) speculate that although xAI has not officially announced the latest features of Grok 4, there is a sense that it will be a significant upgrade compared to its predecessor.
It is rumored that Grok 4 will improve in reasoning and programming capabilities, while also featuring multimodal functions, including vision and image generation.
This is because Musk previously mentioned in another post: 'AI video generation is progressing at lightning speed,' and revealed that Grok 4 will also have the ability to understand memes, stating: 'Think about this, when Grok can understand memes.'
However, although xAI previously promised to launch Grok 3.5 for SuperGrok users in May, it now seems that they will skip directly to Grok 4 in the highly competitive AI environment.
Musk: The first AAA AI game may be available in 2026.

AI technology has been applied in the gaming industry for many years, and with the rapid development of generative AI technology, the industry hopes to use it to design NPC behavior patterns, adapt game difficulty to player skills, and explore the potential for real-time generation of virtual worlds.
Musk mentioned during Trump's 2024 presidential campaign that if a game studio is established, it would focus on applications that combine AI technology, making games not just entertainment but a deeper interactive experience.
xAI announces the establishment of a game studio, netizens react divided.
In November 2024, xAI announced the establishment of a brand new game studio, aiming to 'make gaming great again.'
Musk stated that many game studios have gradually deviated from core player needs after being acquired by large corporations, instead pursuing diversity (commonly known as political correctness), such as ESG or DEI strategies, leading to a decline in game quality and a depletion of creativity.
Supporters of Musk believe that his involvement will inject new vitality into the gaming industry, even expecting him to compete against traditional gaming giants like Microsoft and Sony.
But critics question whether 'making gaming great again' is just a slogan, worrying that creativity in the gaming industry requires long-term cultivation, rather than relying solely on financial power to quickly produce high-quality works.
Some netizens are also worried that xAI's game studio may turn into Musk's personal large game laboratory, rather than focusing on creating truly excellent game products.
