Billionaire Elon Musk said on Saturday that his xAI's artificial intelligence chatbot and ChatGPT challenger Grok 3 would be released with a live demo at 8 pm Pacific time on Monday (0400 GMT on Tuesday). Earlier this week, Musk said Grok 3 was in the final stages of development and would be released in about a week or two. Meanwhile, OpenAI has rejected a $97.4 billion bid from a consortium led by Musk for the ChatGPT maker, saying the startup is not for sale and that any future bid would be disingenuous.
