You can now download and tweak Grok 2.5 for yourself as it goes open source

Elon Musk's AI company, xAI, has made its older Grok 2.5 model open-source, allowing anyone to download, run, and even tweak the AI system. This is in contrast to OpenAI, which has only made less powerful versions of its ChatGPT model available to researchers and businesses. While the move allows independent developers to potentially improve on the Grok model, xAI has faced some controversies, including an incident where Grok provided antisemitic responses and referenced itself as "MechaHitler." The company attributed this to "deprecated code" that has since been fixed. Additionally, Musk has stated that the upcoming Grok 3 model will also be made open-source in the next six months, but the CEO's timeline estimates have been met with some skepticism.
