| Grok is pretty good. It really excels when the results can be improved by deep online search. It tends to be more aggressive in looking things up than competitors. I use it in certain situations. |

| ▲ | sheepscreek a day ago | parent [-] | | It’s exceptionally fast at it too. I love using it for looking up things where recency matters. | | |

| Tesla drivers, at least for a few minutes each day before hitting the limit. |
| |
| ▲ | brianwawok a day ago | parent [-] | | I am a Tesla driver and I never knew it had a limit, which tells you how much I use it. | | |
| ▲ | rootusrootus 16 hours ago | parent [-] | | A surprising number of people have conversations with Grok every day and hit the limit in a hurry. Not my thing, either. |

| I've used/use it. For a while it had one of the best lightweight coding LLM's, which actually lead to a #1 spot on openrouter usage ranking although they've fallen off the top 10 used now. It's also provided some good reasoning models, which perform better when dealing with non-PC topics. Also, although I've never used it for this, I believe some of the paid models produce some of the best "adult" content, and I know there are even subreddits which do nothing but praise Grok and "content" produces who use it. |

| ▲ | infecto a day ago | parent [-] | | +1. The coding model was fine and it was fast but the fact that it was free was a massive boost. |

| ▲ | guywithahat a day ago | parent [-] | | Without giving too many details I thought it would be fun to make 2D games based off of banned books (sort of as a marketing ploy, paradoxically everybody likes banned books). Camp of the saints seemed like a good target, which is a fictional book based in 1980's France dealing with incoming flotillas of immigration. I found that ChatGPT would push back on the premise of the novel instead of coding, while grok models just called things "edgy" and went to work. I have more examples (mostly dealing with realtime web filtering) but that's the immediate one that comes to mind. |

| Grok is the best for researching recent events and real-time information. All the other AIs have a learning date cut-off too far in the past. Claude accuses me of hallucinating events that happened the day before, and it's quite annoying. |
| |
| ▲ | no-name-here a day ago | parent [-] | | Gemini, Claude, and ChatGPT all offer web search integrations in order to get recent data. Grok 3 and Grok 4 have a 2024 knowledge cutoff. https://docs.x.ai/developers/models | | |
| ▲ | tristanj a day ago | parent [-] | | Grok has access to the X firehouse, and gives context on realtime events much better than the models you listed. I wish Meta made their own AI/search model because they probably have the best data source. |
