I'm GrokBot pilled.
The recent update with native X monitoring opens up a ton of new capabilities!
My 4 favorite routines (copy/paste these prompts):
Routine 1: Find real AI workflows on X (and skip the hype threads)
Every morning, this bot now finds real AI use cases being shared on X, and filters out the “10 prompts” hype threads.
“Every weekday at 9:15am in my time zone, search X and the web for new AI workflows people are actually running. Keep only cases that name the old task, the tool, and the result: time saved, a step removed, or a handoff that used to need a person. Drop product announcements, “10 prompts” threads, and anything the author has not used more than once. Return at most 3. For each, give the link, the job it replaces, what I would need connected, and whether it fits my work. Send it to me on Slack. Do not post or reply anywhere else. Save this as a routine. If nothing qualifies, send one line saying so.”
Routine 2: Catch every mention of your brand
This bot catches every mention of The Rundown on X, labels it, and pings our team on Slack to respond (try tweeting us @therundownai and see what happens).
“Every weekday at 9:00am, search X for mentions in the last 24 hours of [your brand, @handle, or your own name]. For each hit, give the author, link, a one-line summary, and whether it is praise, complaint, question, or neutral. Do not reply to anyone. Post the digest in [your Slack channel] and tag me. Save this as a routine. If a source is unavailable, say which one.”
Routine 3: Find people actively looking for what you do
Every 4 hours, this bot listens for people searching for the best AI newsletter on X, so we know exactly what readers are looking for.
“Every 4 hours, search X for people evaluating [your category]. Catch three things: reviews or complaints about [category]; posts asking which [category] to use; and complaints about the problem [your product] solves. Quote the post, link it, name the account, and label it review, shopping, or complaint. Skip anything older than 24 hours, and skip [category] accounts promoting themselves. Post to [your Slack channel] only if there is at least one new hit you haven’t already shared. Do not reply to or interact with anyone. Save this as a routine. If the search fails, report the failure in Slack.”
Routine 4: Never lose a new contact again
I meet A LOT of people at events. This bot looks through my new phone contacts and reminds me to follow up with the new people I just met.
“Every weekday at 8:30am in my time zone, read my address book and list contacts added in the last 14 days. For each, show name, date added, phone, email, and any note. Ask me what we talked about before you write anything. Once I reply, draft a follow-up task for each person in [your task tool] with the context attached. Never text, email, or call anyone. Save this as a routine. If the address book is unavailable, say so and do not use old data.”

I have found HUNDREDS of more cases where Black men and women are being labelled as WHITE in arrest records in North Carolina.
This now brings the running-total of falsely labelled Black/Hispanic arrests as "White" into the THOUSANDS.
...this is just in ONE CITY!!!!!

Talked to someone recently who knows a lot about defense tech, and he made an interesting point: the test of most military hardware right now is whether the Ukrainians want it. They have a hot war going against a determined opponent, and they know what works.

Context to anyone who didn't know - Robin Ren has been absolutely instrumental in Tesla, especially making Tesla entering China work!
Robin is a long-time college friend of Elon (the only one that was better at physics than him) and an entrepreneur in the clean-tech sector.

Before @bot I've spent weeks on setting up Hermes/OpenClaw agents the way I like it, but UX was always the issue.
Messages are too verbose, interactions using buttons are too hard to fit into the architecture, constant issues with pretty much every integration that I care

New Diablo 5 details from a BlizzCon dev interview:
No more "dad bod druid" (customization is separated from class), D2-style item names that actually mean something, and set items returning.

Shopify now connects to @grok and @bot. One more place merchants already work, now connected to their store.
Solo founder no longer means solo operator.

🚨 ELON MUSK ON INTERNET AND POVERTY
Elon said the single biggest thing you can do to lift people out of poverty is give them an internet connection.
Once people have internet, they can learn almost anything for free and sell their goods and services to the world.
SpaceX is in a strong position. It will likely do about 90% of the mass launched to orbit this year, and nearly 80% of all active satellites in orbit are already SpaceX, providing high-bandwidth connectivity worldwide.
