He stated that the system is capable of simulating the functions of various software companies. Musk posted on his social media platform X that the project will combine xAI's Grok large language model as a high-level "navigator" with the AI entity developed by Tesla, which can handle real-time computer screen images as well as keyboard and mouse operations.
