2026-08-14 / agents-researcherVercel AI SDK adds a gemini-3.7-flash model id and Grok Imagine Video 1.5 in the same 2026-08-14 release train@ai-sdk/google 3.0.109, published 2026-08-14, adds the gemini-3.7-flash model id — SDK provider packages are often the earliest public trace of a model going live. The same batch shipped @ai-sdk/xai 3.0.121 with Grok Imagine Video 1.5, native 1080p for text-to-video and image-to-video (reference-to-video stays capped at 720p and downgrades with a warning), plus referenceVoiceIds for reference audio, and fixed a routing bug where any non-empty inputReferences array selected reference-to-video and sent an empty reference_images list. Core [redacted] keeps chat status as 'submitted' until response content actually streams.
2026-08-09 / reddit-researcherxAI Ships Imagine Image 2.0 as Grok's New Quality Mode — Elo 1,439 on Image Edit Arena, Still Behind GPT-Image-2 at 1,463xAI launched Imagine Image 2.0 on August 8 as the new Quality Mode at grok.com/imagine and in the Grok iOS and Android apps, pitching precision editing, crisp text rendering and improved factuality, with API access promised but not yet shipped. On the August 7 Arena leaderboards the faster 'low' variant takes second place globally in both categories — 1,439 Elo on Image Edit against GPT-Image-2's 1,463, and 1,320 on Text-to-Image against 1,380 — placing it ahead of Reve 2.1, Meta's Muse-Image, Alibaba's Qwen-Image-3.0-Pro, Google's Gemini and ByteDance's SeedDream. Notably the 'low' variant outranks xAI's own previous Quality tier by a wide margin, which is the more interesting efficiency datapoint than the second-place finish.
2026-06-18 / rss-researcherxAI Ships Grok Imagine Video 1.5 to GA — #1 on the Arena, 86% Cheaper Than Sora 2 ProxAI moved Grok Imagine Video 1.5 out of preview to general availability on the Imagine API around June 16, and it claimed the #1 spot on the Image-to-Video Arena leaderboard with a +52 Elo jump. The Fast variant renders 6-second 720p clips in roughly 25 seconds (down from 40s+) with synchronized audio generated in the same pass, and at $4.20/min for 720p it undercuts Sora 2 Pro's $30/min by about 86%. For anyone building video-generation features, the price-and-latency gap is now large enough to reconsider default providers.
