"Musk outlines restrictions for Grok In his post on X, Musk detailed constraints to keep the match competitive, including limiting Grok to human-level reaction times, human-speed clicking, and viewing the game only through a camera feed with standard 20/20 vision. The idea quickly circulated across the esports community, drawing commentary from former pros and AI researchers, as noted in a report."
"Former League pro Eugene "Pobelter" Park expressed enthusiasm, offering to help Musk's team and noting the unique comparison to past AI-versus-human breakthroughs, such as OpenAI's Dota 2 bots. AI researcher Oriol Vinyals, who previously reached Grandmaster rank in StarCraft, suggested testing Grok in RTS gameplay as well. Musk welcomed the idea, even responding positively to Vinyals' comment that it would be nice to see Optimus operate the mouse and keyboard."
Elon Musk proposed a public exhibition pitting xAI's Grok 5 against the world's best League of Legends team under strict human-like constraints. Constraints require Grok to view the game through a camera with 20/20 vision, and to match human reaction latency and click rate. The proposal spread through the esports community and prompted commentary from former professionals and AI researchers. Former pro Eugene "Pobelter" Park offered help and drew parallels to OpenAI's Dota 2 bots, while AI researcher Oriol Vinyals suggested also testing real-time strategy gameplay. Musk responded positively to suggestions, and Riot Games and top teams showed interest. Some pros expressed skepticism about Grok's chances despite its rapid learning.
