SpaceXAI released Grok 4.6, built for long-running agents and visual work, claiming parity with GPT-5.6 Sol on a composite benchmark while keeping its low, efficiency-focused pricing.
Elon Musk says xAI plans to release Grok 4.6 around August 7 and follow it with the larger Grok 4.7 several weeks later, extending the company’s rapid model rollout.
Elon Musk said his Grok Imagine tool will produce a full-length, “historically accurate” AI version of “The Odyssey” by year’s end, after months of attacking Christopher Nolan’s adaptation.
Google released Gemini 3.6 Flash and 3.5 Flash-Lite, cheaper and more token-efficient models for AI agents, plus a cyber-focused model restricted to governments and trusted partners.
SpaceXAI’s Grok 4.5 tied GPT-5.6 Sol for first on the SWE-Atlas-QnA coding benchmark, a narrow win that highlights the model’s real edge: efficiency and low cost.
SpaceXAI released Grok 4.5, a coding and agentic model trained jointly with Cursor that undercuts rivals on price and token use, though it trails Fable 5 on benchmarks.
OpenAI will release its GPT-5.6 models, Sol, Terra and Luna, to the public on July 9 after clearing US government review far faster than the 30-day window the rules envisioned.
