Artificial Intelligence, AI has taken the world by storm since its inception. Amongst the list of almost-infinite tools, another new one has been introduced by xAI, called as ‘Grok Imagine’. The new tool lets you quickly create AI generated videos and images.
Over the weekend, xAI has released an updated version of the Grok iOS app with a new tool called Grok Imagine, which lets users quickly create AI images and videos. On X (formerly twitter), excited Grok users have been eagerly sharing their creations, and xAI founder and tech baron Elon Musk has been actively retweeting the popular user posts.
- Grok Imagine as an AI application features generative AI attributes, with text-to-image capabilities as well as the ability to turn images into short video clips with sound.
- The app may come across as similar to Midjourney – an AI video tool.
- Rival AI companies offer latest AI tools that allow users to generate original videos based solely on text prompts, such as Veo 3 from Google and Sora from ChatGPT-maker, Open AI.
The CEO and founder Elon Musk praised Grok Imagine on his official platform on X, calling it a “meme motherlode.” He also teased the NSFW capabilities of the model and said Grok Imagine “should get better almost every day.”
- Earlier this month, xAI released Grok 4, the company’s latest and most intelligent model to date.
How to Try Grok Imagine
While Grok Imagine was initially launched solely within the Grok iOS app, the Doge Designer X account, which Musk often uses for retweeting, reported that it’s now available on Android as well, for Super Grok Heavy users.
The AI generative app seems fairly easy to start creating images and videos, with users having the option to avail guidance and assistance, where required and easy to comprehend options and tools.
- After opening the Grok app, users should see two tabs at the top of the screen: “Ask” and “Imagine.”
- Tap on either the “Imagine” tab or the “Create Image” button and you will enter Grok Imagine.
How to Create Images with Grok Imagine:
- Type in a text-to-image prompt, upload an image, or use the voice mode by tapping “Speak”
- Grok will generate the image and some variations.
- Keep scrolling to automatically generate additional images
- Share or download the images
How to Create Videos with Grok Imagine:
- Tap on an image and select “Make video”
- Choose from the options: Custom, Spicy, Fun, Normal
- Your video will automatically generate and appear on the app
How to Convert Images into Videos with Grok Imagine:
- At the bottom of the app, tap the photo icon with a plus sign
- Upload an image from your phone
- Your video will automatically generate and appear on the app
Grok Imagine is available now to Heavy and Premium+ subscribers on the Grok iOS app, and to Heavy users on the Android app. As with other Grok tools, Grok Imagine seems to be slightly lacking in safeguards that are commonplace in the Artificial Intelligence led industry. However, the growing popularity and demand for this App will soon lay out tough competition to other similar ones, as Musk plans to go all out and get more users download it.
