Sure, let’s dive into this.

So, xAI’s Grok is hopping into Teslas! But, uh, if you’ve got an Intel chip, maybe sit this one out for now. Only the Ryzen gang gets to play. It’s intriguing — or weird, right? — but this AI model integration is kinda exclusive, sticking to Ryzen-based Teslas. Intel folks? Well, take a detour, no Grok for you just yet.
Okay, picture this: an AI assistant, in your car. It’s like having a clever parrot that helps with… well, whatever it does. But, here’s the kicker, Grok will only chat with you if your Tesla’s brain is Ryzen. Why? Dunno, maybe Ryzen has magic juice or something. Intel systems? Hopefully, they get some love soon, but for now, nada.
Saw this tweet buzzing around, Grok (Beta) is rolling out soon, but only in the U.S. for those lucky AMD peeps. Want to know if you can join this club? Go poke around in Settings > Software > Additional Vehicle Info. Something about limitations, Grok won’t drive your car or mess with the air con. Small wins, eh?
Flashback: Tesla ditched Intel for AMD in 2021 — brave or fed up? Who knows. They nabbed AMD’s Ryzen Embedded platform, V3000 Series, with those Zen 3 architect thingies. Eight cores apparently, sounds fancy. So, perhaps Grok needs oomph that Intel’s old chips just can’t provide. Fine, but will Grok ever come to them? Meh, who knows.
Oh, and make sure your Tesla’s all updated with the 2025.26 version — because who doesn’t want a robot making them chuckle during a drive? Right, that’s about it — or not, I got lost somewhere. Anyway, enjoy if you can, or wait it out if you can’t. Life, huh?
