According to xAI's data, Grok 4 and Grok 4 Heavy essentially beat all other models, including OpenAI's o3, Google's Gemini 2.5 Pro, and Claude 4 Opus in various common AI benchmarks, though as one Redditor noticed, the competitors have been chosen selectively, likely to make Grok look better.

Elon Musk’s live demo of Grok 4, the latest big-ticket model from his AI startup, began with high-intensity music, claims of a “ludicrous rate of progress,” and a lot of chatter on X about Grok’s scandal-filled week.
