Elon Musk's xAI has introduced a cost-effective coding tool aimed at competing with OpenAI's Codex and Microsoft’s GitHub Copilot, asserting superior performance in a compact format. Touted as an “agentic coding model,” it promises efficiency in common programming tasks. Musk has expressed confidence on X, claiming xAI could soon eclipse Google in AI capabilities. With Microsoft reporting AI accounts for 20-30% of its code, xAI’s entry marks a significant shift in the competitive landscape.
