SpaceXAI releases Grok 4.5, which Elon describes as an 'Opus-class model'

TLDR 1 week ago

SpaceXAI released Grok 4.5, a new AI model positioned as comparable to Anthropic's Opus in capability. The model costs $2 per million input tokens and $6 per million output tokens, roughly one-third the price of Opus 4.7 while claiming twice the token efficiency of competing models. This pricing advantage could reduce operational costs for companies deploying AI for routine knowledge work including coding, research, and writing tasks.

[AINews] SpaceXAI launches Grok 4.5, first Opus-class model post Cursor acquisition

Latent Space 1 week ago

SpaceX's xAI launched Grok 4.5, a coding-focused frontier model developed in partnership with Cursor, positioned for cost-efficiency and speed rather than benchmark supremacy. The model costs $2 per million input tokens and $6 per million output tokens, with a 1.5 trillion parameter size that is 3 times larger than its predecessor Grok 4.3. Grok 4.5 becomes available immediately across Grok Build, the Cursor IDE, and various API platforms, competing directly with Anthropic's Opus and OpenAI's GPT models in the coding-agent workflow market.
