  Just going to point out Elon Musk stole “Grok” from Robert Heinlein's “Stranger in a Strange Land” and he in no way owns it so feel free to use it in a way that makes it clear Elon just stole it from an author.

  The funny thing is that this wouldn't be *quite* as insane a proposition before Musk broke twitter's ability to function as an independent source of news [embedded post]

  An AI chat bot became grossly racist and antisimetic in a single day in 2016 why would this be any different? how much lead is in his veins he's going to explode during an MRI seriously somebody quarantine this idiot [embedded post]

  LLM Bots summarizing posts that porn bots and crypto bots make about real articles without reading them sounds like the kind of amazing proposition that you can only find on X: The Everything App [embedded post]

  I, too, like to ask my psychotic acquaintance to tell me things he vaguely knows about, where he heard it “in a pub from a mate who's cousin with this guy who knew the guy who it happened to”.  [embedded post]

• @niedermeyer.io E.W. Niedermeyer on bluesky

  A bot that summarizes what the users of a racist social media platform say about stories it hasn't actually read definitely sounds worthy of the $6 billion xAI is reportedly raising at a $18b valuation.  [embedded post]

• @kantrowitz Alex Kantrowitz on x

  New: @elonmusk emailed me about his plan for AI news on X. The idea is to use AI to blend breaking news and commentary, building real-time summaries of events. Then you can go deeper via chat on Grok. Here's the full story! I'll be talking more about this on Big Technology...

• @pkafka Peter Kafka on x

  Elon Musk, news publisher. Except instead of paying people to find news he'll take what you're saying about the news, right here on Twitter, and summarize it via his Grok AI. Which, honestly, is an idea* I don't completely hate. [image]

• @brianstelter Brian Stelter on x

  Elon Musk's plan “is to use AI to combine breaking news and social commentary around big stories, present the compilation live, and allow you to go deeper via chat,” @Kantrowitz reports https://www.bigtechnology.com/ ...

• @kurtwagner8 Kurt Wagner on x

  FWIW this sounds a lot like Moments, a product Twitter used to have, but compiled via AI instead of human curators

• @mcculloughirvin Irvin McCullough on x

  Honestly, this could work. The AI-curated newsletters I subscribe to are getting to be good; all depends entirely on execution

• @scobleizer Robert Scoble on x

  @Kantrowitz @elonmusk Thanks! Can't wait to see Grok get a lot better. I've been writing about Grok, along these lines, a bit too.

• @thekenyeung Ken Yeung on x

  Wow, Musk emailed you @Kantrowitz? https://www.bigtechnology.com/ ...

• @chrismoranuk Chris Moran on x

  “Conversation on X will make up the core of Grok's summaries — or, really almost all of it.” That's the news solved with AI then. https://www.bigtechnology.com/ ...

• @nxthompson @nxthompson on x

  “His plan is to use AI to combine breaking news and social commentary around big stories, present the compilation live, and allow you to go deeper via chat.” Fascinating. @elonmusk's plan for news here. https://www.bigtechnology.com/ ...
