I made a little world of model trains you can play in your browser 🚂 It's called Wonder Rails, and it's live today at WonderRails.com. It started with the feeling of standing in front of a holiday garden railway, watching tiny trains wind through a miniature world. It grew into five places to explore: 🌿 Conservatory Express ❄️ Starlight Summit 🌊 Seabreeze Harbor 🏜️ Sunstone Canyon 🎡 Moonberry Fair There's a fishing boat that makes the freight train wait, a little engine turning on a desert turntable, Santa's sleigh over a snowy night, and fair lights coming on at dusk. Watch the trains run, ride along in the cab, or take the controls. For little ones, Junior Conductor mode keeps things simple: Go, Stop, Whistle, Ride. Each world has its own gentle soundtrack, too. Conservatory Express is free to play, with no download or account needed. The other four worlds are available together in one purchase: the Original Collection. No ads, no subscription, no in-game currency. Everything in the trailer is real gameplay. I'd love to know which world you like best, and what I should build next. Play free at WonderRails.com

Telling Grok Bot to use its email to sign up on your own service and do testing as a user and create a detailed feedback document is super useful. It has already found some real issues which are now fixed! Definitely claim your email and put it to work!
Grok Bot now has its own email. Bot can use it to sign up for services, contact businesses for you, or schedule time with someone.

Grok Bot can now search, read, and monitor X.

A new perk for Claude Max subscribers! Just create an API key and you get extra values from it!
Replying to @ClaudeDevs
We’re rolling out monthly Claude Platform API credits for Max and Team plans: Max 5x: $100 Max 20x: $200 Team: up to $500, pooled Works on any model, including Haiku 5.5, in your code or third-party harnesses. How it works and full terms: support.claude.com/en/articl…

This is great! Model capability was my main complaint with Grok Bot. It would be interesting to see how this change affects the usages. Elon may want to go one step further and allow user to choose which model to use for a task. As long as usages are clearly communicated to users, people will be OK with it.
Important note regarding Grok @Bot: Going forward, @SpaceX will use the best back end model for any given task, including Claude Opus 5.5, MidJourney, Suno and other leading APIs. Whatever is most likely to give you the best outcome.

never deleting this app, and competition is good 😂
See you soon for more ships from The Ship Company.

dots could be big! Imagine Grok Bot but with Astra level intelligence. And the best part is, Using dots doesn't use up any of your usages (though tasks it kick off in codex do). Available for plans $100 and higher.
Your dot is ready to meet you.

Imagine the enormous amount of pressure OpenAI is under now. Can they deliver in tomorrow's DevDay and release a new model that is competitive with Opus 5.5 in both capabilities and usages?

Civilization turns 35 this month. 🎉 From 4000 BC to Civ VII: the entire series in two minutes. Pixel squares, Nuclear Gandhi, Baba Yetu, hexes, districts and three Ages. 35 years of "one more turn." Which Civ was your first? 👇

A few weeks ago I downgraded my Claude sub to $20 plan, but now with opus 5.5 I am back to the $200 plan. For codex I downgraded to $20 plan for now. Let’s see what they come out with on DevDay on Tuesday. OpenAI is certainly under pressure! Opus 5.5 is better than Fable and you get tons of usages. Who doesn’t want that? Competition is good for consumers! Do not have any blind loyalty to any model. Take advantage of whatever model is best at the moments.

Elon still can't get over Gates shorting Tesla stocks. I can understand. Gates has way more money than he could ever spend. Why even bother with the Tesla shorts?
Replying to @cb_doge
When I talked to Gates in person, he said “experts tell me a long range electric semi truck is impossible”. However, when I asked what his assumptions were about battery energy density and vehicle energy consumption per mile, which are the two numbers needed to determine range, he did not know either number! I also offered to let him take one of our semi trucks for independent testing, but he declined. Not sure what more I could have done. 🤷‍♂️

Opus 5.5 is really good. What surprised me the most is that even if you are on $20 plan, you get decent amount of usages. Have upgraded back to Max 5X plan now! In contrast, GPT 6 Astra drains usages way too fast and I often used up whole week’s usage after just 2-3 days on 5X plan.

Codex banked reset should not move the next reset date. @thsottiaux

Today Anthropic provided its first ever banked reset. @thsottiaux can we expect a banked reset for codex too? 😀
