Gemma 2B scored ~8.0 on MT-Bench. GPT-3.5 Turbo scored 7.94. An 87-times-smaller model on a laptop CPU, no GPU anywhere in the stack. We published the full tape — every question, every turn, every score — so anyone can verify it. We found seven failure classes. Not hallucinations. Specific patterns: arithmetic where…
Now in early beta for all SuperGrok and X Premium Plus subscribers — Grok Build is a new coding agent that runs right from your terminal.
We turned zkao (our AI auditor) on OpenVM, a state-of-the-art zkVM, and it found a critical soundness bug: the pairing check accepted a prover-supplied witness without proper subfield checking, which lets a malicious prover forge any pairing equality. It is fixed in OpenVM 1.6.0 and tracked as CVE-2026-46669. This is…
Our second developer productivity study faces selection effects from wider AI adoption, prompting us to redesign our approach.
We identified coordinated distillation attacks using ~24,000 fraudulent accounts to extract Claude's capabilities.
Future Claude models will generate text that contains a watermark to comply with the EU AI Act. We answer questions about how it works and whether it affects outputs.
The field of generative AI is evolving quickly. It brings compelling opportunities to improve developer productivity, but it also brings risks: to reviewer burden, to safety and security, and to intellectual property.
We’ve trained a large-scale unsupervised language model which generates coherent paragraphs of text, achieves state-of-the-art performance on many language modeling benchmarks, and performs rudimentary reading comprehension, machine translation, question answering, and summarization—all without task-specific training.
Our measurements of the time horizons for public frontier language models.
Drawing on five years of Pew Research Center surveys, here are 13 findings about how Americans use and view AI, and where they see promise and risk.
Today we’re announcing $110B in new investment at a $730B pre money valuation. This includes $30B from SoftBank, $30B from NVIDIA, and $50B from Amazon.
Due to the Digital Markets Act, Apple will not be able to ship Siri AI in the European Union with the release of iOS 27 and iPadOS 27.
We measure real-world performance of coding agents on software engineering tasks, including cost, token usage, and execution time. We compare how performance changes across agents, models, and execution settings.
