What's sad is that I always open grok.com if it's a quick simple query because their UI loads about 10X faster than GPT/Gemini/Claude.
Press enter.
Wait.
Wait for typing indicator.
Wait for cute text-streaming.
Skip through the paragraph of restating your question and being pointlessly sycophantic.
Finally get to the meat of the response.
It’s wrong.
