"Ghost Tours": A dramedy short film I wrote & directed and premiered at the 2024 San Diego International Film Festival (@SDFilmFestival).
Just learned: You can send / forward an X post to one (or more) of your specific Grok bots via the "Share" option on a post.

Just a reminder that it’s normal to drive your car until it dies, cook dinner most nights, live in a smaller home, pack your lunch, keep your phone until it stops working, buy used before buying new, make coffee at home, and wear the same clothes for years.
Hey motorcyclist in San Diego: What areas of town have relaxing rides? There's a lot of scenic rides but, the road conditions aren't conducive to relaxing. Any recommendations?

I’m starting an educational series on our Constitutional Republic. Here’s Part 1.
Having GrokBot call people is pretty cool. Start by it calling your friends. It's a fun & low risk way to use it.
Tell Grok who to call, give the number, and the message / objective / task you want relayed.
It calls, you watch the call, then you can download the recording.

After 40, I decided to learn acroyoga, boxing, BJJ, guitar, and more. Not to get attention. Just to stop saying "someday."
I built a map of beginner classes for adults in San Diego.
It's not too late to start cool things. The free weekly newsletter link is in the bio.
1 / I'd never used AI to make a slide deck. So, I asked Grok if it could convert this morning's sermon from my church / pastor into Google Slides for a youth audience.
It said yes.
Here's how it went...
4 / Next, it wrote a slide-by-slide outline for a youth audience. Short phrases. Big ideas. Simple questions.
I said go. And, I asked for a few photo-realistic images, but nothing over the top.
5 / The result: 12 slides in the church's colors, with clean fonts and six images that fit the message.
Sermon to classroom-ready deck the same afternoon. About 15 minutes of work for this 1st draft.
Here's the results: docs.google.com/presentation…
