xAI Tests Grok 4.5 Amid Speculation Over Reclaiming Compute From Anthropic and Google
The move would redirect outsourced hardware back to xAI.
Testing Grok 4.5 Won't be surprised if Elon cancels the Anthropic & Google agreements and gets back the compute xAI is bacc
Zephyr Z9TECH#1700via XIn a post on X, @zephyr_z9 said xAI is "testing Grok 4.5" and speculated that Elon Musk could cancel compute agreements with Anthropic and Google to pull that capacity back in-house. That second point is speculation, not an announced move, and so far the public evidence is the X conversation itself. The post drew attention because compute access is widely treated as one of the AI industry's tightest bottlenecks, and redirecting more of it to Grok would signal a more aggressive xAI push.
@zephyr_z9 very strong on my test(s) so far.
