Elon Musk says Grok’s latest feature is the new Vine

The xAI and Grok logos on the screen of a phone with Elon Musk out of focus in the background.
Elon Musk’s xAI introduced Grok, its conversational AI it claims can match GPT 3.5.

  • Elon Musk posted on X that Grok Imagine, his new AI-powered text-to-video generator, “is AI Vine.”
  • Vine was a beloved short-form video service purchased by Twitter in 2012 and discontinued in 2017.
  • Musk now says he’s working to restore Vine’s video archive.

You might soon have a new favorite Vine video — or see an old favorite return to the timeline — thanks to Elon Musk‘s new AI-powered text-to-video generator, Grok Imagine.

“Grok Imagine is AI Vine!” Musk wrote in an X post on Saturday, touting the latest feature from his chatbot, Grok.

Grok Imagine — now in beta — allows users to type out images or scenes they’d like to see the AI bot animate into video. It then generates clips with sound to the user’s specifications.

Before TikTok — and long before Grok — there was Vine. The beloved short-form video service, which allowed users to create and upload 6-second videos, was owned by then-Twitter shortly after its 2012 founding until its shuttering in 2017. It was the source of many early viral videos and the subject of numerous compilations of “the best Vines of all time.”

While Grok Imagine offers a new AI spin on short-form clips, Musk also appears to be eyeing a comeback for Vine itself.

“Btw, we recently found the Vine video archive (thought it had been deleted) and are working on restoring user access, so you can post them if you want,” Musk added in his Saturday post.

It’s unclear whether restoring the Vine archive would allow users to access their old accounts or if it would be a temporary measure allowing access to old files from the service.

Musk and representatives for X did not immediately respond to requests for comment from Business Insider.

For now, access to Grok Imagine is being slowly rolled out to subscribers of the chatbot’s $30-monthly premium tier, SuperGrok, though any user of X can sign up to be added to the waitlist.
