I used Grok’s new free tier on X but I can’t show you the results because it could infringe Nintendo's copyright

Grok 2 on an iPhone 16 Pro Max with the generated image blurred out.

X’s AI tool is now free to all users, albeit with limits restricting just how many prompts you can request (10 every two hours). xAI, Elon Musk’s company behind Grok, even announced an upgraded version of Grok 2, up to three times faster and more capable, which has started rolling out for all users. If that wasn’t enough, the company has even started to add a dedicated Grok button to all tweets, allowing you to ask questions about the (possibly fake) information you find on the social media platform.

I’ve never used Grok – heck, I’ve barely even used X since its name change from Twitter – so this new free tier was the perfect opportunity to give Elon Musk’s AI tool a try. After spending the morning with Grok 2, I have many thoughts about its image-generation capabilities, and while I’ll share them in this article, I absolutely can’t share the images themselves.
