We need to talk about Grok Bot...

Yep. I came up with all the same roadblocks. For me it just makes sense to stick with my custom Claude code setup. But I have clients who have gone from zero agents & no clue to using Grokbot and it just works and they get it. And that is who I think it’s for at this point.

I cannot agree more! Came to the same conclusion. 👍

I think you’re looking for a different product. I believe the idea is to be opaque so you shouldn’t care what model is used. Most users don’t care. Working in tech we may care but the marketer, accountant, normal person simply doesn’t care as long as their result is achieved

Exactly my point! Technology should be frictionless, not something you need to be a nerd to use in order to be more productive. But without transparency, output quality and reliability at least need to stay consistent, especially if Grok Bot is meant for business use.

You are letting your political ideology infect your thinking.

Yeah I agree with this video. I've been complaining about the samething here and I agree with all of your points. I'm also sticking with grokbot for the same reasons. I want to see it get better lol

I agree the nudging is a huge issue. To me that was the appeal. An autonomous, proactive agentic system that was always up to remove friction. I still have hope. It should also be noted that xAI has Anthropic by the balls right now on the Compute.

Hmm. I grew frustrated with Claud Cowork for knowledge work because everything seems to only work with projects, and they are all mostly disconnected. Sure you can share folders etc., but automated tasks frequently get stuck. Grok Bot reduces the friction—that's why I use it.

I'm coming here from OpenClaude, Moltbot, or OpenClaw. That was a hell of a setup, constantly checking if the terminal was even working. Thanks to @steipete — he encouraged so many people to play with these agents. Then Hermes came along, then the frontier models got better at agentic work, and now we have Grok Bot. I still keep Codex and the Claude app beside me, but it's so much easier than before. Enjoy it

I agree with you. It became quite dumb the past 2 weeks .

This is just another whiny, European kuk of a bitch.

Have to agree! It’s super dumb now!!

Yep. Agree. Needs some changes
