Plot twist, the Jensen Huang scandal has a sequel. A new report alleges another affair, this time involving an NVIDIA employee. RIP $NVDA as it dives more.💀

Hey @grok I'm bored. Give me 5 app ideas I can build or clone and deploy within 12 hours. Low competition, high demand, any niche.

Found what looks like an upcoming Grok Academy hidden behind a password page. I dug into the site and uncovered what appears to be a 15-course curriculum covering AI, Grok Bot, and agent development. Even more interesting? It may include certificates upon completion. 1/2 Here's what I found. 👇

2/2 Site: (learn.grok.com/) The sitemap lists 13 courses and 2 articles. I've sorted them by topic from their names. Getting started and foundations - AI Foundations (ai-foundations) - Introduction to Grok Bot (introduction-to-grok-bot) - Meet Grok Bot: Your Team of AI Agents (meet-grok-bot-your-team-of-ai-agents) Grok Bot by team or role - Grok Bot for Marketing (grok-bot-for-marketing) - Grok Bot for GTM: From Prospecting to Customer Calls (grok-bot-for-gtm-from-prospecting-to-customer-calls) - Grok Bot for Customer Support (grok-bot-for-customer-support) Grok Build and coding agents - Getting Started with Grok Build (getting-started-with-grok-build) - Coding Agents (coding-agents) - Directing Agents (directing-agents) - Rules, Skills and MCPs (rules-skills-and-mcps) - Cloud Agents and Automations: Building a Self-Driving - Codebase (cloud-agents-and-automations-building-a-self-driving-codebase) - Model Selection and Token Efficiency (model-selection-token-efficiency) Admins - Cursor for Admins (cursor-for-admins). The slug is still - Cursor's, left over from the Cursor Academy clone, so it will probably be renamed. Articles on AI strategy and adoption - AI Durable Skills Framework (ai-durable-skills-framework) - AI Adoption Maturity Model (ai-adoption-maturity-model)

Grok Build reportedly exposed over 35,000 apps to anyone with their link. 🚨 Here's how.👇 Security firm Claroc discovered that supposedly secret words in Grok app URLs could be found through public DNS records, allowing researchers to uncover thousands of apps without signing in. Some contained sensitive data, including: • 3,784 worker medical exams • Tesla scorecards naming 22 technicians • A Navy contractor's roster of 108 personnel • SpaceXSI's internal sales plans and ad proposals Claroc found 35,578 accessible apps out of 37,571 that were still online. SpaceXSI removed 24 of its own and X employees' exposed apps after Ars Technica contacted the company. Not every exposed app contained sensitive information, but the underlying privacy flaw is concerning.

Hey @grok decode this for me and explain it as if you are a huge comic book geek.

TLDR to save you the full read.⌛️ The “AI wrapper” era is officially over. Every year you spent ignoring Excel is now looking less like laziness and more like seeing the future.🍻 Claude just dropped Whiteboards, Sheets, and Data (rip Dashboards) so you can brainstorm, build trackers, and turn metrics into stories without ever leaving the chat. Translation: Anthropic just quietly declared war on Miro, Excel, and Tableau in one thread.
Starting to roll out today: Claude Whiteboards, Claude Sheets and Claude Data. Think a plan through on a board, build a tracker in a sheet, and tell a story with your data.

Let me save you the time in watching Matt's updates. ⌛️ Here's the update on "USAGE". Since we all want to zoom in on what's the most important for us in using Grok bot: @mattyp : “And then finally I wanted to give you all a note here at the end of the video. We are hard at work on some token efficiency and usage improvements. The team has been working all weekend on it. And I just want to let you know that I hear all your feedback. I read all the comments here. I’m responding to all the comments on X. The team hears you. We want to make Grok Bot the best possible product for you and we are working around the clock to make that happen.”

Finally an amazing news. Grok 4.8 will be released to Grok Bot users later this week. 1/3 @elonmusk made a very technical post about it. Let's simplify it. 👇

2/3 Here's a simplified version: "We threw out the old tools (JAX and SGLang) and rebuilt Grok's engine from scratch in C/C++. It cost extra time, but it gave us full control over performance and behavior instead of working around someone else's framework. Pre-training is complete. Now 4.8 is in RL (Reinforcement Learning), where it improves by trying, getting scored, and correcting itself, and the evals are starting to reflect that. We will do a soft rollout to Bot users later this week to see how it holds up in the real world."

Music Generated using Yue2 opensource comfyUI workflow. Asked it to create a soulful vibe for this mood: Broke but unbothered. Funny because everyone in their twenties and thirties has lived it. Lyrics: My bank account said no, my heart said oat milk latte, So guess who won? Not the bank. I budgeted last week, I meant it this time, Then I saw a tote bag and I lost my mind, My savings is a dream, my cart is a crime, But this coffee hits different, so I'm doing just fine. Payday latte, I'm broke but I'm glowing, Overdraft fees, but my coffee's showing, One sip I'm a CEO, two sips I'm a star, Second Alarm in my hand, and I'm going too far. Second Alarm Coffee. Rich in flavor, not in funds. Video is up there ☝️
