X is enhancing its Grok AI chatbot by integrating it more deeply into the platform. Grok will provide summaries of profiles, including activity duration, follower count, and common topics, helping users decide whether to follow an account and identify potential bot or ragebait accounts.
A new button as seen in the screenshot featuring the Grok logo will be added to user profiles, allowing users to quickly access more information about the account.
Key Features:
- Profile Summaries: Grok will offer insights into profiles, aiding in follow decisions and bot detection.
- Contextual Information: Users can get automated rundowns on specific words in posts based on Grok’s databanks.
- Separate Grok Window: A new feature will allow users to keep a Grok window active while using the app for easier access.
These integrations align with Elon Musk’s broader AI goals, partly driven by his criticism of OpenAI. Musk aims to make Grok a key feature to attract more X Premium subscribers and increase platform engagement. Currently, Grok is available only to premium users, but these updates are expected to roll out soon, potentially transforming user interaction on the platform.
