Elon Musk, the founder of xAI, announced at the Baron investme conference that his company’s future AI model, the Grok 5, has a chance to reach Artificial General Ielligence (AGI). Musk believes that the main key to this success is exclusive access to live and real data from Platform X (formerly Twitter); Something that competitors like OpenAI and Google do not benefit from.
In his rece ierview, Elon Musk said that there is a 10% chance that the Grok 5 model will reach the level of artificial ielligence. According to his prediction, this model, which is supposed to be released in early 2026, will have 6 trillion parameters, much larger than the curre models.
Musk also claims that the Grok 5 has a “higher ielligence density,” delivering more ielligence per gigabyte. In addition, the real-time video understanding capability allows the model to analyze live videos; This feature is importa for achieving comprehensive artificial ielligence.

Elon Musk says xAI’s main difference from other AI companies is access to “live data”. While competitors use static and legacy datasets to train their models, Grok is connected to the endless stream of real-time data from Platform X. He considers the X social network “by far the best source of real-time data in the world.” In addition to public posts, users’ ieraction with Grock itself also helps to improve and refine the model.
In addition to artificial ielligence, Musk provided some ieresting statistics about Tesla’s progress: He claimed that Tesla’s fully self-driving system is now 4 times safer than human drivers. For this reason, Tesla is now showing this feature to all customers for added security.
Also, he predicts about the Optimus robot that with mass production (rate of 1 million units), the cost of making these humanoid robots will be reduced to 20-30 thousand dollars. He sees a future where there will be 30-40 billion robots (how many robots for every human) in the world.
