Musk shared the update via an X post on Sunday, calling it the Baby Grok app. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The AI chatbot rivaling Gemini and ChatGPT is taking new measures to attract more people, and get them to try Grok and its premium features via the Grok 4 AI model and the expensive SuperGrok premium version.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The regular Grok 4 chatbot has invited controversy and criticism from all corners, which explains the plans to make a Baby Grok model that will cater to their specific content.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\"><strong>Baby Grok AI Model: What To Expect<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The post from Musk here says<\/span><span style=\"font-weight:400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"twtiframe\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">We\u2019re going to make Baby Grok <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/xai?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow\">@xAI<\/a>, an app dedicated to kid-friendly content\u2014 Elon Musk (@elonmusk) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/elonmusk\/status\/1946763642231500856?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow\">July 20, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">We don\u2019t think Baby Grok AI will be the public name for the app but Musk is basically trying to engage with the younger audience, and their parents who might be willing to let their kids experience AI in some form. One render of the Baby Grok suggests the designers will use the existing Grok icon and have kids added to the logo, which Musk says is inspired by the Baby Groot character from the Marvel series.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The new version of Grok for kids is likely to offer content that is age-appropriate, something that Grok AI cannot be certain or guaranteed to provide. More importantly, give parents the control over how their kids use AI responsibly and do not stray away from the regulations of screen time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">We\u2019ll probably hear more in the Baby Grok in the coming days, till then, people will be engaged in trying to find out more about what the kid-focused AI chatbot means in the grand scheme of things. Having said that, Baby Grok is likely to invite scrutiny from regulators and child privacy activists, as they look to reduce the impact of AI for the young audience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/tech\/elon-musks-grok-4-brings-ai-girl-companion-ani-all-you-need-to-know-9444053.html\">Grok 4 AI chatbot brings a new AI companion in anime form<\/a> named Ani. This virtual character can interact with people, and probably go further into the conversation, sharing personal information with AI. You have seen AI companions in movies like Her, and now Musk is making them a reality with the help of the latest Grok AI version.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"9\" class=\"story_para_9\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The AI companion is part of the new SuperGrok premium subscription that comes for a monthly fee. The use of AI chatbots has gone beyond asking complex questions and solving problems, people are clearly now looking to take things further with AI and Grok\u2019s Ani is here to offer that for people.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"authorimg\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2023\/11\/aadeetya-3-2023-11-9de48efa65a9ed8ed13a8932cadb6d5a.jpg?impolicy=website&amp;width=0&amp;height=0\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/s-aadeetya-21044.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">S Aadeetya<\/a><\/p>\n<p>S Aadeetya, Special Correspondent at News18 Tech, accidentally got into journalism 10 years ago, and since then, has been part of established media houses covering the latest trends in technology and helping fr&#8230;<span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd aurpdebtn\">Read More<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>S Aadeetya, Special Correspondent at News18 Tech, accidentally got into journalism 10 years ago, and since then, has been part of established media houses covering the latest trends in technology and helping fr&#8230;<!-- --> <span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd aurpdebtn\">Read More<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-e71bd712c195739a jsx-203899553 artcta\"><span data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\">News18 Tech delivers the latest technology updates, including phone launches, gadget reviews, AI advancements, and more.
