What's our plan if the Grok foundation model V9-Medium (1.5T) sucks

Pivot to 'Chinese Open Weights' release approach ....do not compete at bleeding edge .....offer models 3+ months behind Anthropic-OpenAI and focus on hardware - robots, spaceships, etc .....get people addicted to slightly older 'American' model ........they can control at home/business without all the uncertainty around Close Models - Few people rush out to buy the latest laptop anymore. ......Their old 4+ year old model meets their needs. We are about to enter the beginning of that phase with AI models....do not need bleeding edge in most cases. This will allow xAI to get its AI models into Enterprise and once in, build out echo system ( much like Apple of olde) ....people will not want to rip it out their SpaceXAI model just to have something 3 months newer in many cases ...... plus it will work with their Tesla Robots, Tesla Semi's( if in logistics), Tesla delivery cars, Tesla Taxi's, and other future Macrohard (Optimus Digital) solutions. 'Give it away' for market share Elon !

@techdevnotes There is no chance SpaceXAI puts out a model that sucks a week before a trillion plus IPO. I assume they paused on the 1T Elon was talking about to focus on the 1.5 to get something awesome out pre IPO

@techdevnotes Pet him on the head and tell him he's still a very good boy.

@techdevnotes Most of my coding requirements aren’t frontier worthy. Script writing, scaffolding here and there. Basic architecture understanding, good context window with lots of lookback. I’m not hard to please.

@techdevnotes To be brutal this is not our problem. What Elon is going to do ?

@techdevnotes Plan? We do what humanity always does….complain very loudly, then quietly ship V10. History’s pretty clear on this one. 😌

@techdevnotes Fire Elon... but no chance of Grok 4.4 being worse than Grok 4.3

@techdevnotes Who cares, 3T and 10T will follow suit. Composer 3 is nearly ready, and will be as good as GPT-5.5

@techdevnotes No need, aint no way it's going to suck.

@techdevnotes It will be a good model 😭

@techdevnotes lol

@techdevnotes Keep using Codex

@techdevnotes Then I give upnon grok

@techdevnotes Failure is an option here. Not trying is not. ⚡⚙️

@techdevnotes the 6T and 10T

@techdevnotes Put my agent into hibernation... Maybe.

@techdevnotes Grok Large and XL

@techdevnotes It won't. I have 100% belief in Elon, SpaceXAI, and team will bring the homerun

Brendan Fraser stars in PRESSURE, the "gripping" untold true story of D-Day. See it in theaters starting TODAY.

@techdevnotes Well, it can’t be worse than 4.3

@techdevnotes bro 10 steps ahead plus Cursor

@techdevnotes Spoiler : it will not sucks. If it sucks, they will rethink and rebuild ai - again - from first principles.

@techdevnotes It’s inevitably going to be frontier coding with all the cursor data. Maybe not beating Mythos yet because it’s just much smaller, but beating about everything else. And we’re gonna have to start somewhere aren’t we?

@techdevnotes grok build is pretty good already, you'll notice things will be pretty monotonic outside a/b testing

@techdevnotes Ask Grok

@techdevnotes Sucks who?

@techdevnotes Join Anthropic as MTS

@techdevnotes Grok V9 will underperform because xAI is prioritizing inference latency over reasoning depth. By Q4, they pivot to a MoE architecture with 5T+ parameters.

You don't need a bigger support team. You need fewer tickets reaching humans in the first place. How leading teams are doing it 👇

@techdevnotes Continue on COdEX

@techdevnotes deny and reject claims of bad performance I guess

@techdevnotes Composer becomes the only hope for a long time.
