Earlier this week, Grok unveiled two animated AI companions for customers to work together with, certainly one of which is a flirty anime woman who places on lingerie for those who praise her sufficient. Now the AI chatbot is including a 3rd character to the combination, solely this time it is apparently modelled on what xAI CEO Elon Musk thinks ladies discover engaging.
Musk launched Grok’s new male AI companion in an X put up on Tuesday, asking for ideas in naming the character. Illustrating the request was an image of the brand new companion: a stern-looking anime man sporting a black swimsuit.
Grok will get AI companion that is all the way down to go NSFW with you
“His character is impressed by Edward Cullen from Twilight and Christian Gray from 50 Shades [of Grey],” wrote Musk. Fifty Shades of Gray is a 2011 erotic BDSM novel which originated as a Twilight fanfiction, with the character of Christian Gray based mostly on brooding vampire Edward Cullen.
Musk additionally hinted at extra upcoming AI companions, responding to an X person’s suggestions by stating that Grok “will, after all, have one other character impressed by [Pride and Prejudice‘s] Mr. Darcy.”

Although no official title for Grok’s new Fifty Shades-inspired AI character has but been introduced, Musk responded positively to proposals corresponding to Nyx, Taki, and Andrej. Andrej seems to be a reference to Andrej Karpathy, an OpenAI cofounder and Tesla’s former senior director of AI.
Mashable Mild Pace
“Grok may do some epic AI tutorials in Andrej’s voice,” Musk wrote, responding to requests for such options. “Provided that Andrej agrees.”
“So what sort of income share are we speaking about 😀 jk jk,” Karpathy replied.
“$420.69,” Musk responded. “Critical cash.”
It is unclear how critical Musk really is about this provide. The billionaire has a historical past of creating enterprise provides of questionable authenticity, steadily posting them to X and utilizing joke numbers corresponding to 420 or 69.
One other common title suggestion for Grok’s male AI has been “Chad,” a slang time period for a person that different males contemplate engaging and interesting to ladies. Although the AI character was ostensibly designed to enchantment to ladies, males seem much more enthusiastic about it so far, and are largely receiving it as a bro. Additional, whereas on-line discourse surrounding Grok’s feminine AI character has been overwhelmingly sexual, its male counterpart appears to have primarily sparked hypothesis as to the influence his confirmed title can have on numerous cryptocurrencies.
Time will inform as as to whether Nyx/Andrej/Chad will even have an unlockable lingerie look. Responding to an inquiry as as to whether “xAI’s chad bot” might be “one other NSFW companion just like the waifu [Grok’s AI anime girl Ani], or will it’s extra like a contrarian ‘solar your balls’ well being influencer,” Musk said that it will be “[w]hatever winds your clock.”
