You can ask Grok if this is true

Of all projects based on generative artificial intelligence, maybe Grok is the most controversial; Elon Musk’s AI does not mind presenting answers that Chatgpt and Gemini have no allowed or imagine.

But maybe precisely for that, Grok has achieved a certain success, although for now, completely limited to the X platformthe social network formerly known as Twitter. That will change from now on.

The CEO of Telegram, Pavel Durov, has announced the signing of an agreement with XAI for the Grok distribution through Telegram; An agreement that seeks to benefit both parties, although in very different ways.

On the one hand, Telegram will receive a payment of 300 million dollarsapproximately 265.6 billion euros, part in cash and part in shares; Not only that, but Telegram will receive 50% of the income from subscriptions to XAI from the app.

In return, Telegram will now integrate Grok directly into the app in different ways. In a video published in X, it is shown that one of these integrations will be found In the search barfrom where we can ask Grok.

Once a conversation with Grok is opened, it will be shown as a independent chat within Telegramwhere it will work similar to the Grok section within the X app.

In addition, Grok can be integrated into our chats; The assistant even You can act as a moderator of our Telegram groupsexpelling the users who fail to comply with the established rules.

To that we must add a variety of functions related to the generative AI, such as the Chat content summary; If we have not entered the group for a long time, this function will allow us to catch up.

Other functions can help us to express ourselves with the rest of Telegram users; For example, so that Grok helps us write a message With a certain style.

The content summary functions also attract attention, including the Summary of links and documents shared in the chat; Instead of entering the page or downloading the file, Grok can summarize them.

For Elon Musk, this is a golden opportunity to expand the reach of its AI, which until now was limited to the X app and its own website; It is an important step for Fight against its great rival, OpenAi.

For Telegram, this collaboration allows you to at the height of WhatsApp and Messenger, the two finish lines that already have integration with goal AI and are already able to do many of the things that Grok now allows on Telegram.

An important detail of this collaboration is whether Telegram will share data from its users with XAI. Although initially Durov personally confirmed that this possibility “had not been discussed”, Then the CEO erased the message.

In addition, subsequently Elon Musk himself came up by stating that “No agreement has been signed”suggesting that these details have not yet been completed. Durov, meanwhile, said that only “formalities.”

Assistants based on generative have earned criticism for the large amount of personal data they obtain from users to function properly; And the possibility that Telegram data is shared is in the air.
