xAI's Grok 5, a planned 6T–10T parameter Mixture-of-Experts large language model training on the Colossus 2 gigawatt supercluster, has missed repeated Q1 and Q2 2026 targets after earlier slippage from late 2025, leaving it still in active training as of early September. Trader consensus on Polymarket reflects this uncertainty, with low implied probabilities for near-term release and roughly 64% odds by year-end, driven by the model's unprecedented scale, post-training requirements, and xAI's parallel focus on rapid interim foundation models such as Grok 4.5 and 4.6 that target coding and agentic benchmarks. Recent announcements emphasize monthly releases through 2026 and supplemental training on proprietary data, while competitive dynamics with OpenAI and Anthropic models keep pressure on timelines; any credible confirmation of training completion or public beta would serve as the next major catalyst for odds.

Grok 5 refers to a product explicitly named Grok 5, or a model that is clearly recognized as xAI’s next flagship generation succeeding Grok 4. Models released under the Grok 4 generation, including Grok 4.6, Grok 4.7, or similar variants, will not qualify.
Qualifying releases of task-specialized models or cost-efficiency variants will not count unless they are explicitly branded as Grok 5 or otherwise clearly announced by xAI as its next flagship Grok generation.
For this market to resolve to "Yes," a qualifying model must be launched and publicly accessible, including via open beta or open rolling waitlist signups. A closed beta or any form of private access will not suffice.
The release must be either clearly defined and publicly announced by xAI as being accessible to the general public or otherwise made publicly accessible and explicitly labeled within the company’s official website. Labeling errors, placeholder text, or version names displayed on the website that do not correspond to a model that is actually accessible to the general public will not qualify.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from xAI, with additional verification from a consensus of credible reporting.
