In the latest update from Tesla, CEO Elon Musk announced that the highly anticipated Grok AI will be officially launched "at the latest" next week in Tesla vehicles. This news caused Tesla's stock to rise sharply on Thursday, closing up 4.73% at $309.87, and the market enthusiasm was completely ignited.

Musk revealed on the social platform X that Grok AI will lay a solid foundation for the intelligent upgrade of Tesla vehicles. Grok4, developed by xAI, the artificial intelligence company founded by Musk, is hailed as "the most powerful AI model in the world." Although Musk had previously mentioned that Grok would be installed in Tesla vehicles, he did not specify the exact launch time or compatible vehicle models, leaving people eagerly anticipating it.

Currently, the usage cost of Grok for car owners remains unknown. Although using the Grok chatbot on the X platform is free, accessing Grok4 through the Grok website or application requires a monthly fee of $30. Additionally, the more advanced Grok4Heavy version costs up to $300 per month. For this reason, car owners feel both excitement and some concern.

Furthermore, Tesla's layout in the field of autonomous taxi services (Robotaxi) is gradually coming into view. Tesla has already applied for testing and deploying Robotaxi services in Phoenix, Arizona. Musk stated that this service will expand to the San Francisco Bay Area within the next one or two months and will be rapidly implemented in the Austin area. Tesla hopes to further promote the popularization of autonomous driving technology through this innovative service.

Tesla's annual shareholders' meeting will be held on November 6th, and investors hope to learn about the company's strategy and future direction at the meeting. Especially against the backdrop of Musk's recent political activities and declining Tesla sales, shareholders are full of expectations for the company's future. Overall, Tesla's future seems to hold infinite possibilities.
