New Grok 4.5 Finally Hits Claude Hard

Grok 4.5 just entered the frontier AI race, and it is being positioned as a faster, cheaper Claude rival. SpaceXAI says the new model is built for coding, research, writing, office work, and real knowledge tasks, while offering much better token efficiency than other leading models. At the same time, China’s MiniMax is preparing a massive 2.7 trillion parameter open-weight model, ByteDance just released Seedream 5.0 Pro for serious image generation, Meta is letting people remix public Instagram posts with AI by default, and OpenAI just launched GPT-Live to make ChatGPT voice feel much more natural.
