Sure thing, let’s dive into this.
Okay, so here’s this wild news—Grok, that nifty AI sidekick, is rolling into Tesla cars. But hold up, it’s only chilling with the Ryzen gang for now. Intel folks? Yeah, they’re sitting this one out. Not entirely sure why I find this funny, but I do.
Grok To Buddy Up With AMD’s Ryzen; Sorry, Intel—Not This Time
Seriously, an AI in your car? Wild, right? Imagine cruising down the highway and having an AI to chat with. Anyway—never mind, back on track. So, Grok’s here for Teslas, but a tiny hiccup: It’s only vibing with AMD’s Ryzen-based systems for now. And those older Intel versions? They’re getting ghosted. I mean, I guess they just can’t keep up with the cool kid on the block. You know, Ryzen’s got that oomph Tesla needs for their rides—kind of like a secret sauce.
Saw this post on Twitter (shoutout to Sawyer Merritt)—Grok’s going beta soon. But only in the U.S., and yes, you need an AMD chip to try it out. Wondering if you have Ryzen? Dive into Settings > Software > Additional Vehicle Info. If you’re rocking Intel, well, sorry—just the way the cookie crumbles.
A fun twist—Grok’s just about chatting right now, can’t mess with your car’s navigation or AC. Not yet, at least. But it’s still a good chuckle to see it in action if you have a Ryzen system.
So, memory lane: Tesla used to hang with Intel until 2021. Then, boom, a switch to the Ryzen Embedded platform with all that Zen 3 goodness. That stuff’s like having an eight-core monster jammed into the car. Betcha that’s why Grok’s leaving Intel in the dust—the older Intel stuff just can’t keep up with these futuristic shenanigans.
Oh, and just in case you’re wondering about feeling left behind, fear not—Grok’s fun and giggles are packed in the 2025.26 update. Go get that update if you’re all about hearing some sassy AI humor.
