Oracle’s strategy involves integrating popular AI models within corporate software. By partnering with xAI, Oracle enhances its portfolio, offering high-performance and secure AI solutions tailored to diverse business needs.
Grok 3 Becoming a Business Essential
Launched by Elon Musk’s xAI in February, Grok 3 competes with established models from DeepSeek and OpenAI.
