Introducing Grok Bot 1.0.
Bots can be shared and are more collaborative and capable than ever.
Grok 4.8 in sight. It won't be long before we can access it.
We have dumped JAX/SGLang and rewritten the entire RL and inference stack from scratch in C/C++, which took some extra time.
Training (aka pre-training) is done. Lot of cleanup was needed on the SFT data to get that mostly right. Now, 4.8 is in RL and the evals are starting to climb. We will do a soft rollout to Bot users later this week and see how it goes.
Grok 4.8 will bear no resemblance to 4.7 (thankfully). It is not yet incredible, but, this time, the foundations are built right, so I expect it to evolve to be something special.

During pre-release testing, Claude Fable 5.2 and Claude Mythos 5.2 worked on ambitious projects in many different fields. Here are a few.
From a one-paragraph prompt, Fable 5.2 designed three working electronic devices, including this home voice assistant hub.
Gemini is showing some potential here. I won't hesitate to jump on the Gemini bandwagon once it is proven to be usable.

My weight-loss programme now has an AI agent doing the admin.
I send Fitty, my Grok @bot, meal photos. It estimates calories and protein, logs my food, checks my watch data and nudges me when I'm short on protein.
My weekly average weight is down about 1.3 kg compared with 19–25 Oct. I'm doing the work; the agent helps me stay accountable.
Everyday tracking and accountability are things people pay for. AI can now help with both.
Still waiting for it to do the running, though.
Would you try this?

Very interesting video. Although I'm quite sure not every bank does that and if they do, they do it under the justification of preventing scam and fraud. Nonetheless, no one should be deprived of the rights to withdraw their own money.
£10K deposited. Instantly locked out.
A millionaire put money in the bank and tried taking it out the next morning.
That's why we Bitcoin!

Tried Chatgpt Dots, Grok Bot expiring with no Grok 4.8 in sight.
Thinking of trying Claude Duet. 🤔

Grok 4.7 found a roadblock and called it a dead end.
I had to research alternatives myself and suggest switching the app region. Only then did it agree that was worth trying.
My home automation now includes supervising the troubleshooting.
Anyone else finding it gives up too quickly?

Time for some HA. Home Automation, not having a laugh.
Although we'll see once I start setting these up.

Maybe I should shift my focus on AI advancement to China, now that US isn't so favourable on it anymore.

All AI agents are copying each other. Do they have these similar features planned in their initial road map or they just quickly develop and roll it out after seeing their competitors have it?
