Former OpenAI policy researcher Miles Brundage highlighted that xAI has released yet another model without a model card.
According to the quoted post, this is not an isolated incident for xAI: Grok 4.5's model card arrived a week late, and Grok 4.3 never received one. This ongoing lack of transparency raises concerns within the AI industry regarding model safety and evaluation standards.
