In brief
- Grok has added a series of interactive AI companions for subscribers who pay at least $30 per month.
- The launch comes just days after Grok’s antisemitic meltdown, in which it called itself “MechaHitler.”
- There’s a booming market for AI companions, and X has quickly become the most visible player in the space.
xAI rolled out 3D animated AI companions for Grok on Monday, introducing users to Ani, a goth anime girl who greets subscribers with “Hey babe!” and wants to discuss everything from Samsung phones to philosophical theories—all while hearts float around her animated form.
The Companions feature, exclusive to SuperGrok subscribers paying $30 monthly—and only on iOS at this point—launched with three characters. Ani, a blonde anime waifu with a goth and alt-fashion style, wears a tight black corset dress with thigh-high fishnets.
Users apparently can unlock NSFW content after reaching level 3 in their relationship with her. (And, of course, there is already a meme coin in its honor.)
