Comment on Everything You Need to Know About Grok 4

Comments

I keep seeing these Grok 4 intelligence claims, so I tried something very simple: "Animate a round robin tournament for 10 people."

Results: Claude: ~10s, perfect working demo ChatGPT: ~20s, solid solution Grok 4: ~1000s, failed completely, gave me a truncated base64 blob

This wasn't some obscure edge case... it was basic data visualization that any decent model should handle. Yet somehow Grok 4 is "competing with humans" and has "99% tool accuracy"...

I don't buy it..

These benchmarks are either just wrong or measuring something completely divorced from practical utility imo...
