IT Home On October 8, it was reported that Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, posted an important statement on the X platform yesterday (October 7). He announced that his Grok Bot will no longer be limited to the Grok series models developed by SpaceXAI. It will automatically select the “best backend model” based on specific tasks.
In a tweet, Musk looked ahead and said that the Grok Bot will call on APIs such as Claude Opus 5.5, Midjourney, and Suno, depending on the user’s task, and the system will make choices based on “providing the best results for users.” IT Home has attached the relevant screenshots below:
In terms of technical strategies, Grok Bot will shift from “focusing mainly on self-developed / proprietary models” to a “task-oriented multi-model hybrid architecture”. When performing tasks such as text, images, and audio, it will be able to call stronger third-party APIs in the future.
Grok Bot is a “permanent AI colleague” launched by SpaceXAI: it is not just a chat robot that answers questions. It can log in to the websites and applications you use regularly on a cloud computer, perform multi-step tasks, and come back to ask you for approval only when human judgment is needed. It was released as a beta version in August 2026.
Each Grok Bot has a name, responsibilities, and a continuously accumulating context. You can assign tasks to it through text, voice, or voice calls, just like sending a message to a colleague. It runs on a cloud computer equipped with a browser, file system, and terminal. Therefore, even if you turn off the computer or phone, background tasks and scheduled tasks will continue to operate.
