Not Elon Musk’s grok? Because this one has a q at the end? So confusing. Someone should trademark in force the other.

It is incredibly confusing, Groq was first (by a lot) and they did write a nice letter (https://wow.groq.com/hey-elon-its-time-to-cease-de-grok/), but understandably they probably don't want to burn money suing the richest person in the world.

Grok was first by about 50-60 years.

Groq actually has a competetive edge about something, unlike Musk's "Grok"

Grok is a word made up by Heinlein about 10 years before Musk was born.

Yeah, this one needs to be resolved. It really is confusing since they're in the same space.
