alt Hacker NewsI haven't used GrokBot, but I have been sort of amazed by how popular it is. I don't have the numbers but even my friends who otherwise dislike Elon have at least given it a try, and several of them use it daily.
It makes me want to check it out just to see if there's some magic UX juice they put in there. Then again I also don't want to take any risks heh.

Most people probably wouldn’t cop to the real reason they use the CSAM and non-consensual nudes generator

I know someone who isn't an Elon fan at all but has switched completely from Dot to Grokbot. Most of their company has done the same and now they are contemplating cancelling their OpenAI plans (they still use Claude heavily, but Duet isn't available on Teams plans).

I've also noticed anything related to GrokBot gets massively boosted on X, which is probably serving as a huge marketing channel. Plus anyone with a Cursor subscription gets access.
