TradingKey - Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla (TSLA.US), announced that his company xAI will live stream the release of Grok-4 on the @xAI social media platform at 8 PM on July 9. This release will feature two core products: the flagship large model Grok-4 and Grok-4 Code.

Grok-4 focuses on language, mathematics, and reasoning capabilities, aiming to surpass competitors such as OpenAI and Google. Grok-4 Code is designed as a personal coding assistant for top developers globally and can even be embedded within user-customized code editors.

Notably, xAI's AI system will deeply integrate with Tesla's offerings. With Grok-4 serving as an “inference-based AI brain,” it is set to bring an end-to-end leap in intelligence to Tesla’s core products: enabling end-to-end closed-loop systems and multi-task processing in Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) technology; while enhancing synchronized processing and independent thinking capabilities in Optimus.

Previously, xAI’s Grok-3 model, released in February this year, demonstrated strong reasoning abilities, logical adaptability, and an understanding of complex physical knowledge and spatial simulations. It outperformed several top large models in benchmark tests across math, science, and programming areas, including Gemini, Claude, and GPT-4o. Grok-4 is expected to achieve further breakthroughs based on these foundations.

As of Monday's market close in the U.S., Tesla's stock price had dropped nearly 7%, resulting in a market capitalization loss of over $68 billion. Musk’s announcement over the weekend about forming a new political party has heightened investor concerns regarding his core automotive business amidst ongoing tensions with the Trump administration.

After Elon Musk resumed his role as Tesla's CEO, Tesla shares surged 50% from their April lows. However, they are now under pressure due to renewed political controversies.

Meanwhile, investors continue to place high expectations on Tesla's autonomous driving, AI, and robotics prospects. Wedbush analyst Dan Ives stated that Tesla is "on a path toward accelerated growth driven by autonomy and robotics technology."

To date, Tesla remains a favored stock among major institutional investors such as Vanguard, BlackRock, and Ark Investment, who regard it as a leading tech and electric vehicle manufacturer.
