If I had to trust one person build AGI, it would be Elon Musk.

Elon, how close do you think Grok 4.8 will be towards achieving AGI?
Elon Musk@elonmusk· Sep 14, 2026@techdevnotes Grok 4.8, which is a 2.5T model trained with our new C++ software stack, will finish training this week and start RL

Agree with “PACE THE FRONTIER” in public. Keep training.
The 2.5T Grok 4.8 model is going to be better than the current non-public models from Anthropic & OpenAI.
I think Grok 4.7 will be in the same category as Fable 5.1 & Astra. That’s probably why he’s delayed the release twice.

Grok 4.7 should be roughly on par with Opus 5.0, not 5.1. Better in some ways, worse in others. We need to fix multimodal performance.
Grok 4.8 will be a noticeable improvement.
Grok 4.9 is probably Astra/Fable class.
Grok 5 maybe better than anything. We shall see.

It’s unequivocally better than the 2.1T that was trained with Jax, but we made some mistakes that were only corrected mid run and we have greatly improved the data quality in the past few months.
The upcoming 3T run with improved internal training software and much better data

After the C+++ rewrite, our modeling indicated RL time for these models starting at 4.8 COULD be cut in half for ~2T models and substantially more time savings on a % basis for larger models. The thing I’d suggest watching is time between releases once they get some of the kinks

Our training (aka pre-training) software is now the internally developed C/C++ stack, which was written primarily by the Starlink software team. This is awesome and probably best in industry.
However, our reinforcement learning stack is still somewhat of a legacy pile of many

The MFU on this full C++ stack is part of the reason xAI is churning out so many models. I would bet their stack is full of inline PTX and most likely completely AI generated by stronger models like GPT and Claude Fable.
The need for higher level frameworks for prod training is

Hello @elonmusk 👋
A bit nervous to ask this publicly, but—
we’re hosting a small experimental closed event for KEMURI at our UNSEEN studio in Tokyo during TGS.
If you’re around, I’d love to invite you.
I also have something I’d like to talk with you about regarding UNSEEN.
Can
