What they did

After buying both his boys Garmin watches by texting Grok Bot, he asked it to connect their watches to Garmin's API and build a live dashboard on a Page. Every morning it automatically pulls their sleep, steps, heart rate, stress and body battery, with daily, weekly, monthly and all-time views. He didn't write code or configure anything.

Ask your bot for a security review of an email that passed every check

An email from [email protected] landed in a Tesla engineer's inbox. It passed SPF, DKIM and DMARC (the checks that confirm who sent an email) and showed the blue check, but something felt off, so he asked his Grok Bot to do a security review. It found a hidden phishing link, explained why every safety check had passed, and wrote a report to xAI with a proposed fix. He then had it add a security routine that checks his email for anything phishy going forward.
