Elon Musk just announced that Grok's
next release is so powerful that he's
calling it Groke 4 instead of 3.5. He
claimed that Grok's new version will be
the smartest AI by a significant margin.
But here's what's really interesting.
He's been dropping hints about this
launch for weeks, one tweet at a time.
I've tracked every single announcement
he's made about Gro 4, and the timeline
reveals something surprising about how
confident he really is about this
release. Welcome back to Bitbias.ai, AI,
where we separate AI hype from reality.
If you've been following the Gro 4
rumors, but want to know exactly what
Elon himself has actually said versus
all the speculation floating around,
this video breaks down his complete
timeline. I've compiled every tweet,
every claim, and every promise he's made
about Gro 4's capabilities and release
date. From his gym selfie hints to the
official launch announcement, here's the
real story of how Grock evolved from
version 3.5 to 4 in just 10 days, and
why that matters more than you might
think. Elon's Gro 4 timeline from hints
to launch. If you want to know how
serious XAI is about competing with GPT4
and Claude, just look at what Elon Musk
himself has been posting. Over the past
few weeks, he's been teasing, renaming,
and finally confirming the next Grock
release, one tweet at a time. Let me
walk you through the complete timeline
of what we know straight from Elon
himself. It all started on June 15th
when Elon posted something that seemed
like just another workout photo, but
look closer at the caption, "Training
Grock 3.5 while pumping iron at XAI."
This wasn't just a fitness flex. Elon
was telling us that model training was
still actively happening in mid June.
The model wasn't finalized yet, but it
was very much in development, and he was
personally involved in the process. Then
5 days later on June 20th, Elon dropped
a bombshell statement that got
everyone's attention. I'm increasingly
confident that Grock 3.5 will be the
smartest AI by a significant margin.
Notice he was still calling it Groke 3.5
at this point, but the message was
crystal clear. He genuinely believes
XAI's model will surpass GPT4, Gemini,
and Claude. That's an incredibly bold
claim that immediately raised
expectations across the entire AI
community. But the real gamecher came on
June 22nd when Elon revealed something
massive about the user experience. Deep
search and think will activate
automatically as needed in Gro 3.5. This
is huge because it means you won't have
to manually turn on advanced reasoning
or web search anymore. Gro will
intelligently decide when to go deeper,
when to research, and when to think
harder about your question. It's
essentially becoming a truly autonomous
AI assistant. Then something interesting
happened on June 24th. Elon casually
tweeted, "Actually, we should call it
Gro 4 as it's a major upgrade over 3.5."
Just like that, we witnessed the
official rebrand in real time. This
wasn't just a marketing decision. Elon
was signaling that the improvements were
so significant, they deserved an
entirely new version number. We were
looking at a foundational shift, not
just another incremental update. And
finally, on June 27th, Elon gave us what
we'd all been waiting for. working on
Grok 4 should release after July 4th
weekend. This was the first official
confirmation of both the new name and an
actual timeline. The training phase is
essentially complete and we're looking
at a launch window of July 5th through
7th. So, what does this entire timeline
tell us? First, Gro evolved from version
3.5 to 4 in just 10 days because Elon
believes the improvements are that
revolutionary. Second, he's clearly
hands-on with this project, personally
timing updates and confidently
positioning Grock to compete directly
with the biggest names in AI. Third,
with Deep Search and Think automatically
activating, this won't just be another
chatbot that answers questions. It'll be
an AI that reasons and researches
autonomously. And most importantly, Gro
4 isn't some distant coming soon promise
anymore. Based on Elon's timeline, we're
looking at a launch within days, not
months. The question now is whether the
actual product can live up to the
increasingly bold claims he's been
making. The moment Gro 4 launches, I'll
be here with real hands-on testing to
see if it lives up to Elon's bold
claims. What do you think about his
timeline strategy? Let me know in the
