It's great to see that xAI has delivered on the promise to release Grok-2. Might be a good idea to run some tests to be sure that it matches benchmarks of the original model to confirm it is the complete release. But even if it is, it's also probably worth keeping in mind that this model is now far behind SOTA, even amongst smaller open weight models.
