During our work on Grok 3 Reasoning, we noticed scaling trends that suggested it would be possible to scale up our reinforcement learning training significantly.\n\nFor Grok 4, we utilized Colossus, our 200,000 GPU cluster, to run reinforcement learning training that refines Grok's reasoning abilities at pretraining scale. This was made possible with innovations throughout the stack, including new infrastructure and algorithmic work that increased the compute efficiency of our training by 6x, as well as a massive data collection effort, where we significantly expanded our verifiable training data from primarily math and coding data to many more domains.
