What they did

With his wife landing at DFW that evening, a user asked his Grok Bot to check her flight, then asked Grok in his Tesla for dinner near the airport. When he said Waffle House, it picked the closest one, a 7-minute detour, and added it as a stop before the terminal. He then had Grok in the car hand the drafting of an X post to his X-writing Grok Bot.

How it went

He says he arrived about an hour before she landed after eating, all from one conversation.

Worth knowing

  • Self-reported X post; the Tesla routing part needs Grok in a Tesla.

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.
