⚙️ Elon Musk’s X gains a new image generator, Aurora X, the social network formerly known as Twitter and owned by Elon Musk, has introduced a new image generator called Aurora to its Grok assistant. However, after a brief period of availability on Saturday, the feature disappeared for some users. Like its predecessor, Aurora has minimal restrictions, allowing the generation of images featuring public and copyrighted figures, including graphic content, although it avoids nudity. Aurora can be accessed via the Grok tab on X's mobile apps and website. While xAI staff announced its launch, details about its development remain unclear—it's uncertain if xAI created Aurora independently, built on an existing generator, or collaborated with a third party. Some xAI employees contributed to fine-tuning Aurora, which is noted for its photorealistic capabilities but can produce flawed outputs, such as awkwardly blended objects or missing fingers. The release of Aurora follows X's decision to make Grok free for all users, allowing them to send limited messages and generate images daily. Additionally, xAI recently closed a $6 billion funding round and is reportedly developing a standalone app for Grok, with plans for a new version, Grok 3, on the horizon. 💬 Source 📌 Powered by V3V Ventures
