Telegram has partnered with xAI to integrate the Grok chatbot into its
platform for one year, with xAI paying $300 million in cash and equity.
Telegram will also receive 50% of subscription revenue from Grok. TechCrunch
reports: Earlier this year, xAI made the Grok chatbot available to Telegram's
premium users. It seems Grok might now be made available to all users. A
video posted by [Telegram CEO Pavel Durov] on X suggested that Grok can be
pinned on top of chats within the app, and users can also ask questions to
Grok from the search bar. Notably, Meta has also integrated Meta AI into the
search bar on Instagram and WhatsApp. The video also shows that you will be
able to use Grok for writing suggestions, summarizing chats, links, and
documents, and creating stickers. Grok will supposedly also help answer
questions for businesses and assist with moderation.
