Recently, Elon Musk's Grok AI announced that it is testing a new mode called Grok4Fast, which is available to certain users and aims to provide a faster response experience. Compared to the existing fast mode and expert mode, Grok4Fast significantly improves the speed of answering questions, especially in handling complex math problems, where its response is almost instantaneous.
If users want to experience this new mode, they just need to click on their avatar on the web version of Grok, go to settings, and then enable "Preview Early Models" in the Grok subscription to choose the Grok4Fast mode. However, it is worth noting that this feature is not available to free users; only subscribers can experience this new function.
In some early tests, netizens reported that the Grok4Fast mode performs well in answering various complex questions. Compared to the current fast mode, this mode almost eliminates waiting time, providing users with a more smooth experience. Especially in scenarios where quick solutions to simple problems are needed, Grok4Fast can greatly reduce user wait times.
However, although Grok4Fast has an impressive response speed, it remains to be verified through subsequent tests whether its model capabilities are comparable to those of the expert mode. Although the expert mode takes longer to respond, it usually provides more accurate and in-depth analysis, suitable for more complex thinking tasks. Therefore, for simple questions, Grok4Fast is undoubtedly a very convenient choice.
It is currently unclear when Grok AI will roll out the Grok4Fast mode to all users, but this new mode undoubtedly opens up new possibilities for the future of AI assistants. With continuous technological advancements, users will look forward to more features that enhance efficiency, helping them better cope with daily challenges.
