Worth nothing that the image generation part is not developed by xAI - they started with using Flux from BFL (Black Forest Labs), and now seem to have made a finetune of it (in partnership with BFL, I assume). So most of the image gen tech that Grok has isn't made by them.

Right, but I expect their extensive post-training they're doing will be something they carry over to their own pre-training initiative they've been gearing up for.

Correct previously, but they've just released (at least in beta A/B mode for some users) their in-house image generation model called Auora.
