Someone gave a bunch of LLMs the PoliticalCompass questions, and it turns out they're almost all libertarian-leftist in orientation.

I got early access to SpaceXAI’s new Grok @Bot template sharing feature, which lets you create custom Bot templates that other people can download and use. I created a Home Robots template that lets you control multiple home robots from a single chat. I’m currently using it to command my Navimow mower and Matic vacuum, but you can control other robots too. Here is the direct link to download the template: x.ai/bot/3mf-UN4mGnCp8DbPBnW…

Grok Bot already got me one meeting with a lead that went dark. Scanned my Outlook. Found some open loops. Helped me draft the email. Sent it. Woke up today to a new meeting. Boom.

In October 1937, at the height of the Great Terror, Stalin's secret police was shooting roughly 1,500 Soviet citizens every day. That same month, the founders of the London School of Economics published the second edition of their two-volume defense of Stalin's regime, Soviet Communism: A New Civilization. The one thing they changed from the first edition was dropping the question mark. 🧵

Elon Musk: “A friend is someone that supports you in difficult times… Fair-weather friends are useless. Everyone likes you when the chips are up, but who likes you when the chips are down?”

🇯🇵 There are over 9 million vacant homes in Japan. Japan gives them away for free in some rural areas just to prevent neighbourhood collapse. They are called "akiya."

“A friend is someone that supports you in difficult times.” “If someone’s still supporting you when the chips are down—that’s a friend.” “Fairweather friends are useless.” “Everyone likes you when the chips are up, but who likes you when the chips are down?” @elonmusk with @nikhilkamathcio

Grok now in Microsoft Foundry

It's hard to believe Starhopper's 150 meter hop was seven years ago today. I shot it from the roof of a house in Boca Chica Village that no longer exists. These images clearly illustrate how far the Starship program has come, and how ragtag the beginning was.

The truth shall set you free

A small number of repeat offenders are responsible for the vast majority of violent crime

Californians could soon see some relief from their sky-high electric bills. The reason? Data centers. Thanks to data centers, PG&E has been able to offer rate cuts for the fourth time in two years. Let's keep building!

BREAKING: Grok 4.6 from SpaceXAI is now available in Microsoft Foundry Models. 🤖⚡ Organizations can now build with Grok 4.6 on Foundry, compare frontier AI models, run workload-specific tests, deploy managed endpoints, and use enterprise security and governance controls. Grok 4.6 is expanding further into the enterprise AI ecosystem.

Amazing update! Thanks to this incredible audience, @SpaceX has just fulfilled another one of Liv Perrotto's final wishes. I spoke with her mother @rebeccaperrotto earlier this year, and she shared the list of questions that Liv planned to ask @elonmusk just days before she passed away from cancer. After this audience made that post go viral, @elonmusk answered every one of them, including whether he would make Asteroid, the space-loving Shiba Inu she designed, the mascot for SpaceX. Well now, SpaceX has just added an official plush of Asteroid to their website! YOU played a huge role in bringing Liv's story to light and making this happen. Thank you!

Neuralink 🧠 How it started v/s. How it's going

Neuralink is one of the greatest technological breakthroughs of our time. A woman paralyzed from the neck down is creating paintings just by thinking. Patients are controlling wheelchairs and moving a robotic arm just by thinking.

Very troubling indeed

BREAKING: SpaceXAI has released a new and improved update for Grok Build. v1.0.12 — 2026-08-27 Performance: • Worktree creation is faster by skipping stale reflog copies. Bug Fixes: • Copying wrapped table cells no longer inserts unwanted spaces at line breaks. • MCP server connections that fail transiently now retry instead of staying unavailable. • Waiting on subagents after an interjection no longer blocks on unrelated background work. • Prompt blocks now show friendly hook descriptions instead of internal IDs. • Truncation error message no longer suggests asking for a shorter answer. • Context estimates for conversations with reasoning are now more accurate. • Token usage after rewinding or switching modes now matches the actual server-reported count instead of overestimating. • Context bar now updates immediately when auto-compaction begins instead of waiting until it finishes. • File system monitoring for .NET projects no longer creates excessive watchers on Linux. • Auto recap no longer appears while a background task or monitor wake turn is streaming.
