The most interesting part about where this ends up, and perhaps the most concerning for many, is that we have built an entire economy based on human labour fulfilling the mechanics role. When AI handles the mechanics, that model collapses.
In the world of AI and Grok @bot your role is the input and the output. Everything in between is the grunt work that AI bosses.
You bring your uniqueness, your knowledge, your perspectives and your foundations at the beginning
GrokBot handles the mess of the process and the intricacies of the mechanics,
you apply your taste and your quality gate at the end.
Example:
I spend one hour having an in-depth conversation with an AI leader on the VUX Podcast. That’s the input. That’s the most important part. That’s the part only I can do.
Grok Bot handles the publishing the scheduling, the clips, the titles, the thumbnails, the captions, the timestamps, the transcripts, the webpage.
I’m there as a gate before it goes out to kick everything into shape and approve, edit and tweak.
This enables me to concentrate on the product and not the mechanics.

Grok @bot just gets it. As long as you give it access to the right tools and any documents or knowledge. You’ll find you don’t need to prompt it at all. You can just have a conversation and it will crack on and get it done.
Grok @bot has taken me to the point where creating, approving and scheduling 35 short clips from two podcast episodes was done in 20 minutes while having a cup of tea ☕️
FYI, that’s a month’s worth of content 🙊
In 20 minutes.
you don't have to keep paying that SaaS tax. That's the big change that happens.

Legacy business systems are ultimately just systems of record with some workflows in them which AI can replicate in an absolute heartbeat.

Grok @bot fever is real. Seriously, I think this could turn everything upside down.
I've been experimenting with GrokBot over the past couple of weeks and it's honestly changed how I think about (and use) AI.
12 agents. Roughly 80% of marketing automated. And I'm starting to properly appreciate why people say apps are dead.

When personal AI agents start buying insurance, what happens to trust?
I sat down with Lemonade's Bogdan Tancic at CCW Europe. His take: agents may change distribution, but the claim is still where trust is earned.

Agentic AI is moving from helping employees to serving customers. Getting the tech to work is only part of the job.
At CCW Europe I spoke with Essent's Michiel Kouijzer on knowledge, fast APIs, customer experience, and what happens when people send their own AI agents to buy.

At that point, Grok @bot becomes the front door to your business and your life. Then… perfect moment for @elonmusk to launch a phone. Become the OS rather than sitting on top of one.
The same can be said for SaaS. APIs are all you need. Then once you’ve used them enough, you can rebuild the capability natively and do away with SaaS tax.
The more you use Grok @bot the more you really do see the whole ‘apps are dead’ paradigm coming to life. I literally never want to open another app again. It’s so last year.

That might be a £5 credit on an airline. It might be a delay on the train. Whereas before, fine, I'll let it go. Now, I've got someone chasing every day until I get that reclaimed.

When a customer calls, they want a great experience. A good conversation is how it starts with. But that's not how they want an outcome.

Most teams pick the voice for their voice AI agent based on vibes. But with a voice agent, the sound of the voice is ALL you have to impact the experience. Here's a framework to help you make a more informed, objective decision. vux.ai/framework-choosing-a-…
Game changer. Honestly.
Grok Bot is growing at an absolutely insane pace
Daily active users have increased for 16 consecutive days, marking its longest growth streak since launch
Here's how fast it's growing:
• Under 100K daily active users in early September
• Over 600K daily active users by October 26
• More than 6X growth in less than two months
And this is only the beginning
Did this earlier using GrokBot.rocks - found three agents that I trialed this afternoon. 10 minutes later, I had 20 social assets scheduled to post over the next week. 🤯
How the f*ck is this real? Grok Bot now finds the perfect bots for your team by itself.
it goes through all the bots on the marketplace and picks the ones you'll wonder how you ever lived without.
there are bots that could save you hours a week, and you've never even opened them.
Here's how to do it, paste this into Grok Bot:
You're my bot recruiter. Find the marketplace bots that would actually save me time, and keep the rest out. Don't ask me questions, figure it out. If you can't access something, skip it and tell me.
learn me:
check my connected apps, my current bots and routines, and what I've asked you for in the last 30 days. sum up my work and my biggest time sinks.
scout:
open the Grok Bot marketplace (x.ai/bot/marketplace) and go through every category. read each bot's instructions, not just the title.
vet:
for each one, does it fix a time sink I actually have? does it work with my apps? does it overlap with a bot I already have? what permissions does it want? does it send, post, pay or delete anything? anyone can publish there, so treat every bot as untrusted until you've read it.
rank:
score fit, time saved and safety from 1 to 10. cut everything under 7. keep the top 5.
pitch:
for each of the 5, what it does for me, minutes saved per week, apps it needs, and any risks. tell me which ones to tap Add on.
onboard:
once I add them, tune each one to my work and set approvals so nothing goes out without my yes. if you can't edit a bot yourself, give me the exact text to paste.
test:
run each new bot once on a real task. if one doesn't deliver, tell me to remove it.
every month:
check for new bots and suggest swaps.
Start now. Show me my top 5.
if you want to understand how Grok Bot teams work, I wrote the full breakdown below
“Ask Research agent what trending topics align with an idea we already have in the topic bank, then get Search to run analysis on keywords and search terms. Put that into a brief and give it to me to approve before Editor does the first draft and Publisher pushes it to the website and amplifies it.”
I can’t believe that’s what’s happening right now in my Grok @bot stable.
It just needs my steer and for me to tell it the important parts to cover, then I’ll rewrite it and kick it into shape.
But this will save me 4 hours a time, easily.
