Grok's revolutionary 3D printing technology is finally hitting the market after being available as a beta for months. The AI-powered platform has been updated to include an API, allowing users to access its capabilities on a more affordable basis. With prices starting at just 50 cents per output millimeter (mtok), Grok 3 claims to be competitive with larger frontier models.
The technology behind Grok 3 is said to display full reasoning traces, providing a more detailed understanding of the printing process. This is particularly useful for complex or customized designs that require multiple iterations and checks. The platform's user interface has also been streamlined to make it easier for new users to get started.
Grok's mini version, which was initially available as beta, now provides full reasoning traces without an API fee. For those looking to take advantage of the more affordable option, a tutorial is available on the company's website at https://docs.x.ai/docs/overview. With Grok 3 and its mini version becoming widely available, AI enthusiasts and hobbyists alike can now explore the possibilities of advanced 3D printing technology at an affordable price.
