The Good and Bad of Musk’s Grok AI

To say Elon Musk is an interesting guy would be an understatement. He goes from brilliant to bozo and back again in a blink. It’s like watching a fast ping-pong match.

Musk’s latest effort is an AI based on X (formerly known as Twitter) content called Grok that I believe will disrupt conversational AI.

Shaking up a new market is a good thing in many cases because, too often, everyone starts copying each other, and you end up with a lot of similar and increasingly boring offerings. While Musk does a lot of things, he doesn’t do boring, except, of course, the company by that same name.

Let’s chat about Grok this week. Then, we’ll close with my Product of the Week, the Surface Laptop Studio 2. Microsoft sent me one, so now I have experience using it.
