I think Grok's voice chat is almost there - only things missing for me: * it's slower to start-up by a couple of seconds * it's harder to switch between voice and text and back again in the same chat (though ChatGPT isn't perfect at this either)

And of course Grok's unhinged persona is... something else.





Pretty good until it goes crazy glazing Elon or declaring itself mecha hitler.

Neither of these have happened in my use. Those were both the product of some pretty aggressive prompting, and were remedied months ago.

Yet, using this model in any way whatsoever after these episodes seems absolutely crazy to me.

All models have had similar instances. I particularly enjoyed Gemini’s black founders era. The “safety” teams have bent the politics of these tools in ways I don’t trust. Grok does too, but in my experience less so. This has real impacts.

Grok is the only frontier model that is at all usable for adult content.

It's so much fun. So is the Conspiracy persona.
