I trust Grok because of the wokery nonsense on other platforms:

Key Takeaways
What the community is saying — both sides
Supporting
1
clean sweep
of the DesignArena video leaderboard, beating Veo, Sora and Kling across multiple categories — many see this as a result that rewrites the competitive landscape overnight.
2
weeks or months, not years
, and Grok’s launch‑to‑leaderboard sprint is cited as proof.
3
sustained adoption and real‑world usage
, not a temporary leaderboard headline.
4
quality vs. speed
tradeoff: Grok’s rapid outputs impress, but skeptics ask whether results would improve if the model “took more time to polish.”
5
audio fidelity and anime‑style scenes
, so aggregate rankings can obscure niche strengths.
6
xAI/Musk
for aggressive product velocity and risk‑taking that accelerated Grok’s rise.
7
API release and community benchmarking
as key mechanics that let Grok jump the queue so quickly.
8
unlocks new creative workflows
right away.
9
respond fast
, turning the field into a relentless iteration race.
Opposing
1
Feature claims look questionable
multiple replies ask if Grok actually supports video-to-video and call the announcement “sus,” signaling widespread doubt about what the product truly does.
2
Growth felt manufactured
users say Grok “pumped up the numbers with a free plan” to drive adoption, then locked features behind a paywall, which many view as bait-and-switch.
3
Mixed technical performance
praised for human likeness but criticized for failing at ambience, scene shifts, hands, text/numbers, lacking native 1080p and standard motion controls or end-frame features.
4
Benchmarks and leaderboards are suspect
several replies argue results are optimized to beat the scoring surface (a “made up leaderboard”) rather than reflect real capability.
5
Other tools still beat it for video
users point to alternatives (e.g., Seedance) as producing visibly better outputs, implying Grok’s lead is overstated.
6
Political/credibility attacks
a subset of replies call the promoter a shill for Elon or make incendiary claims tying the tech to broader harms, reflecting distrust beyond technical critique.
7
Small pockets of genuine praise
a few anecdotal replies describe useful, even charming interactions (teaching a child, friendly responses), suggesting some real-world value for casual or conversational use.
8
Noise and multilingual skepticism
several responses are off-topic, non-serious, or short disbelief statements in other languages, lowering signal quality in the thread.

Grok is amazing at human likeness. It's absolutely terrible with any ambience, scene shifting, etc. Plus, no native 1080p. Missing standard features like end frames, motion control, etc. I call bullshit on this honestly.

g Grok Imagine for science + space infographics and the results are insane — marble-style comic art with precise data labels in one shot. Going from "not in the convo" to sweeping every leaderboard in under a year is the most impressive AI sprint I've seen. xAI is cooking.

Elon really replied with four trophies like it’s nothing 💀 Grok Imagine: casually sweeps every single video category Sora & Kling right now: deleting their leaderboards and pretending they never existed xAI cooking the entire AI industry for breakfast again.
