- XAI’s Grok 3 chatbot has added a voice mode with multiple personalities
- A personality is called “deranged” and will shout and insult you
- Grok also has personalities for the NSFW role -play, crazy conspiracies and a “therapist without a license” mode
The XAI Grok may be about to begin remembering its conversations as part of a broader list of updates that are implemented, all of which seek to coincide with Chatgpt, Google Gemini and other rivals. Elon Musk’s company tends to launch Grok as a brave hidden in a world of staid tools; It also seems to be pointing to parity in characteristics such as memory, voice and image edition.
As seen by a user in X, it seems that Grok will get a new “customize with memoirs” switch in the configuration. This would be a big problem if it works and marks a change of momentary utility to long -term reliability. The Grok reported memory system, which is still in development but that already appears in the web application, will allow Grok to refer to previous chats.
This means that if he has been working with him in something like planning a vacation, writing a script or simply monitoring the name of that documentary he wanted to see, Grok could say: “Hey, don’t we talk about this?”
Grok’s memory is also expected to be controlled by the user, which means that he can administer what the AI remembers and eliminate specific memories or everything Grok has remembered at the same time. That is increasingly the standard among AI competitors, and it will probably be essential for trust, especially as more people begin to use these tools for work, personal planning and remembering which child you prefer which history of bedtime.
This should put Grok more or less at the same time with what Operai has done with the chatgpt memory deployment, although in a much shorter timeline. The vertiginous rhythm is part of the field for Grok, even when it still does not work. Some users have already reported that the memory function is available, but it is not yet available for everyone, and the exact schedule of implementation is not clear.
Remember Grok
Of course, giving memory to a chatbot is a bit like giving a golden fish a planner, which means that it is only useful if you know what to do with it. Even so, Xai seems to be placing memory on the Grok website in conjunction with a handful of other updates that are inclined to make it feel more like a real assistant and less like a sarcastic trivia machine.
This memory update is beginning to appear as a range of other Grok updates on the horizon. Grok 3.5 is expected at any time, with Grok 4 slotted by the end of the year.
There is also a new vision feature in the development of Grok’s voice mode, which allows users to point their phones to things and listen to a description and analysis of what surrounds them.
It is another characteristic that Chatgpt and Gemini users will find relatives, and Grok’s vision tool is still being tested. The updates are also reaching the recently released image editing function that allows users to load an image, select a style and ask Grok to modify it.
It is part of the ongoing competition among the chatbots of AI to make artistically versatile models. Combine that with the next integration of Google Drive, and Grok begins to seem a bit more serious as a competitor.
Also on the horizon is Grok Workspaces, a kind of digital slate to collaborate with Grok in a more significant project. These updates suggest that Xai is turning to make Grok look less one novelty and more as a need. XAI clearly sees that Grok’s future is more useful than only a set of sarcastic and bad voice responses.
Even so, even when Grok wins these expected characteristics, questions remain about whether they can match the depth and enamel of his most established counterparts. One thing is to screw a memory system to a chatbot. It is another thing completely to make that memory significant.
If Grok becomes his reference assistant or remains a curious toy used only when some aspect becomes viral depends on how well Xai can connect all these new capabilities to something cohesive, intuitive and a little less chaotic. But for now, at least, he finally remembers his name.
