Groq, an AI chip company, wants everyone to forget about Elon Musk’s snarky chatbot with nearly the same name, Grok. Lightning-fast demos from Groq went viral this weekend, making current versions of ChatGPT, Gemini and even Grok look sluggish. Groq claims to provide “the world’s fastest large language models,” and third-party tests are saying that claim might hold up. Groq is an “inference engine,” not a chatbot like ChatGPT, Gemini, or Grok. It helps these chatbots run incredibly fast but does not replace them altogether.
