I never hear about Grok being used over Codex or Claude on this site, I don't really hear about new Grok models or updates yet people love using Grok as a way to communicate meaning, are you guys just on Twitter too much?

"grok" in that sense is from a novel, i think Stranger in a Strange Land by Heinlein. i heard it before i read the novel, i'm sure, but i didn't notice it until afterward.

it means like "full understanding", like complete.

Does the name now make sense, considering!?
