Baby Grok: Elon Musk Confirms Kids-Friendly AI Chatbot App Will Launch Soon
Last Updated: Grok 4 was launched recently but Musk is already planning to target more users for its AI chatbot and next in his line are kids. Elon Musk's xAI company has recently developed AI anime characters as virtual companions and soon Musk plans to have a Grok AI version that caters to kids and restricts their use with parental controls. Musk shared the update via an X post on Sunday, calling it the Baby Grok app. 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. 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. Baby Grok AI Model: What To Expect The post from Musk here says We're going to make Baby Grok @xAI, an app dedicated to kid-friendly content— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 20, 2025 We don't 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. We'll 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. Grok 4 AI chatbot brings a new AI companion in anime form 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. 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's Ani is here to offer that for people. view comments First Published: July 21, 2025, 08:15 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
