SpaceX to use the best model for every Grok task

Zach DavidsonOct 7, 2026

Elon announced today that Grok Bot will start using the best backend model for each task, including Claude Opus 5.5, Midjourney, Suno, and more to produce the best outcome for users. In a competitive market where owning the user relationship is important, this is a big move for Grok — it's a step towards becoming the main interface people use to interact with AI. Does this matter to folks here? Do y'all prefer choosing your model, or do you want one interface to control model selection on your behalf?
