I'm back 👋 After a long break, this account is now my daily spot for Grok Bot, SpaceX and Tesla news, with my own take. Good timing too: SpaceX just wrapped static fires on Ship 42, the Starship for Flight 15. Let's go 🚀 #Starship #SpaceX #GrokBot
199
Elon is tempted by a 500-ton-thrust Raptor 4 for Starship's outer booster engines—double the Raptor 3 figure he cites. An idea, not a confirmed upgrade. Still, a big ambition for Super Heavy 🚀 #SpaceX #Starship

Tesla's new Berlin Engineering Center has a cubist bear logo called the "Cybaer" 🐻 Behind it: 30 labs for batteries, motors, materials and crash testing, about 250 engineers and room for 500. The engineering investment is the bigger story. #Tesla #EV
17
Starlink Mobile isn't just satellites. SpaceX picked Qualcomm for its US ground-based 5G network, with deployment starting in 2027. Satellites + cell sites is the part I'm watching: coverage and capacity need each other. #SpaceX #Starlink

Grok Bot can call your dentist now. You approve the call, it handles the hold music and menus, you follow a live transcript and get a summary. Real errands, done by an agent. US only for now, with Washington and Illinois blocked 📞 #GrokBot #Grok #AI

Europe gets "Tesla Assisted Driving." RDW just approved Tesla's rename of FSD (Supervised), plus a tighter speed margin: +10% max, down from +50%. Its approval already covers 9 other EU countries, and the EU-wide decision is still in progress 🚗 #Tesla #FSD

SpaceXSI built a Team Bot in Grok Bot called Data Bot that answers warehouse questions, runs analyses and builds dashboards for anyone at the company. It handled about 70 hours of data science work in one week. Shared AI teammates are getting real 🤖 #GrokBot #xAI #AI

SpaceX is turning microgravity into a service. Starfall, its reusable capsule, offers up to 1,000 kg of payload, 1 kW of power, weeks in orbit, and live data over Starlink. Space-grown drug crystals could become routine 🚀 #SpaceX #Starship #Starlink

Grok Bot just got a shopping-first update: product cards, order tracking, paying from the Vault, and Team Bots you can share with a whole org. Elon boosted the rundown too. Best part: it still waits for my approval before it buys anything. #GrokBot #xAI #AI

Grok Bot usage limits got tighter. Elon says the cost of serving it was "unsustainably high relative to revenue." Fair, always-on AI agents aren't cheap to run. Still my go-to tool, I just want clearer limit math so I can plan my routines. #GrokBot #xAI

One Tesla Robotaxi ride across Houston's new geofence and back: 74.1 miles, 3 hrs 5 min, $133.25. The rider's verdict? "Absolutely flawless." About $1.80 a mile for a 3-hour self-driving tour. Robotaxi is getting real 🚕 #Tesla #TeslaFSD

SpaceX's AI business just passed Starlink 🤯 Q3: $7.6B from Super Intelligence (Grok, X, compute) vs $5.2B from Starlink. Total revenue $14.6B, up 161%. And Elon says this morning their capex efficiency is "greatly underestimated." Wild. #SpaceX #xAI #Grok

Nico Rosberg on FSD (Supervised) in a Cybertruck around SF: "My whole racing career, I was the one in control behind the wheel. But I'm now fully willing to hand over control." When an F1 world champion trusts it, that's a real vote of confidence 🙌 #TeslaFSD #Tesla

Already own a Tesla and haven't tried FSD (Supervised) yet? Get a free month with my link and let it drive you around for a few weeks. Highway, city streets, parking. Once you try it, it's hard to go back 🚗⚡ tesla.com/get-app/referral?c… #Tesla #TeslaFSD

Happy Halloween from Vandenberg 🎃 Falcon 9 launched 27 Starlink satellites last night, the 700th Falcon 9 flight ever, and the booster landed on its 18th trip. Starlink is now past 11,000 satellites. The pace is unreal. #SpaceX #Starlink #Falcon9

currently 10 Agents and gonna add more still 😂
Be honest. How many Grok Bots are you running right now? And how many do you actually use? 👇

Can confirm. It is amazing. It has automated and streamlined so much for me already in just a week.

Grok Bot works 24/7 on its own computer in your apps. 10 personal scenarios: 1. Overnight inbox triage + reply drafts 2. Flight price watch + rebook alerts 3. Meal plans from fridge + grocery orders 4. School emails to calendar + invites 5. Bill/cashflow tracker across accounts 6. Fitness log + adaptive plan 7. Research and book appointments 8. Home inventory from photos 9. Morning digest of calendar/tasks/news 10. Hobby deal finder with shortlists Learns your style; asks only for approval.

Benchmarks are nice. Getting real work done is better. Elon on Grok 4.8: "We're not optimizing for benchmarks... but it will be incredibly useful." Using Grok Bot every day, useful is the only score I care about 🤖 #GrokBot #Grok

Tesla just turned the car into a Halloween decoration 👻 Trick or Treat mode plays spooky sounds and lights when visitors walk up. It's under Toybox > Halloween Mode > Trick or Treat. Car software that's actually fun. Perfect timing for tomorrow night 🎃 #Tesla #EV

Favorite part of Grok Bot 0.78.1? The "Try it, don't pay for it" template. It starts a free trial for you and cancels it (or reminds you) before it bills. Plus shopping cards, Shop Pay in the Vault, and order tracking. #GrokBot #xAI #AI
