Elon Musk Agrees 'for Now' With AI Chart Ranking Grok Behind Claude, GPT-6 Models — So Where Does Gemini Land?
• Musk endorses AI ranking chart placing his Grok models below Anthropic and OpenAI
• Anthropic's Opus 5.5 tops the list; Alphabet's Gemini models ranked lowest, in a separate tier
• Musk says SpaceXAI could reach 'pole position' in about six months
Elon Musk backed an AI model ranking chart showing his own Grok models trailing Anthropic and OpenAI's offerings, calling it "accurate... for now." Anthropic's Opus 5.5 topped the chart, followed by OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra, then Fable 5.1 and GPT-6 Sol, while Grok 4.6 and 4.7 sat three tiers below the leader and Grok 4.5 ranked even lower. Musk said last week that SpaceXAI could reach the top spot within six months and release a Fable/GPT-6-level model in two to three months. Deepwater's Gene Munster predicted Grok 5 could become history's most useful engineering tool once trained on SpaceX's engineering data. Alphabet's four Gemini models were excluded from the main tiers, placed in their own category at the bottom, as Google races to launch Gemini 4 amid pressure from Meta's Muse. SpaceX shares closed 0.44% higher at $148.68 Friday.
