Today I installed Grok @bot

Today I installed Grok @bot. First impressions: - I really like it. - It's fast. - It goes above and beyond the call of duty on most answers in a way that felt different from other AI platforms. As background, I use @claudeai Fable 5 with Cowork nearly every day for business (Team) and/or personal use and love it. I have @openclaw. I'm not a software engineer but I hacked around with Claude Code enough to build http://cited.co (hobby project). To test Grok @bot I asked it to analyze my performance in yesterday's Double Dipsea trail run in Marin. It not only pulled my results, but pulled full results for all 421 finishers - names, ages, splits, hometowns, etc. From there it told me things about my performance that I would have never known: - how rare negative splits are across the field (faster second half race time vs first half): only 4% of runners ran a faster second half in the race than their first half. - how many people I passed in the second half (42). I didn't ask for charts but it made great charts! In fact my prompts were basic, short, and generic. Grok @bot outperformed expectations by a mile. Impressed by the comprehensive Dipsea analysis, I spun up a 'CEO Advisor' bot. It pulled so much public data about BACtrack so quickly that I thought it somehow had access to private data; no, it was just really good and fast at incorporating public data into answers. It then recommended making a key hire for one of our divisions, had me sign into my LinkedIn account through a virtual Chrome browser, and then identified 10 great candidates. Not bad candidates, high quality, great candidates with directly related experience. It was fast! I didn't want to get excited by a new AI platform but I am. Nice work @bot team.
