Grok Bot(x.ai)

I've already been doing something very similar to this with OpenClaw, where I set up multiple different Telegram bots each with different system prompts to tune their personalty & behavior.

It's not trivial to do, and I never managed to get bot-to-bot communication working. Even with my janky setup, the experience is honestly pretty great. Grok Bot simplifies the setup for this about as far as I imagine is possible, and frankly it's a pretty slick experience.

I fully expect this paradigm to catch on quickly.

Were you attempting to get them to message amongst themselves over Telegram, or something different?

Somehow the American AI industry managed to create a product I trust less than existing commercial offerings. Kudos, that is actually pretty impressive. Considering the stakes, one might also call it foolish. But I'm sure they've done their market research, they've identified their product niche and they're racing to meet it at the bottom.

So this is a Hermes Agent plus a credential proxy it sounds like?

It's a great idea, but the problem is with the latest versions of Grok. It's like xAI copied Google's Gemini. Grok now minimizes its effort. Like Gemini "Pro", it's become a flash model that provides shallow answers quickly.

Here's some totally normal stuff that Grok’s owner has been posting recently:

* "Anyone who opposes remigration is a traitor"

* "She is a traitor to the West, plain and simple" (in reference to his recent interviewer)

* "Deal with traitors before invaders. They are committing high treason."

* "First the traitors, then the invaders" (screenshot from Citizen Vigilante pointing gun at camera)

Yes sirree: just a completely normal tech product without any asterisks.

Mighty big words from Musk, who is himself actually guilty of treason.

I am unsure if this is the end all be all but it appears preferable to claude code desktop to me.

Like a hosted OpenClaw with, I assume, more guardrails.

>with, I assume, more guardrails

with Grok, that's a tremendous assumption

Ah, you mean guardrails for _your_ protection...!
