Just did a round table review with the Grok @Bot engineering team.
Fixes are being implemented overnight and you should notice a dramatic improvement by tomorrow. If not, reply to this post and we will address any remaining issues right away.
1/ Everyone's saying Grok Bot got dumber.
It didn't. It lost access to your Mac apps.
"I can't read your Mail." "I can't control your browser." "I can't send iMessages."
Same brain, no hands. Here's the 2-minute fix 🧵
6/ Safety stays on: keep Auto-Review on, add "Always Ask" rules for sends and payments, and you can revoke any app in the Automation pane anytime.
The checker script is read-only. It only counts things, never sends or deletes, and doesn't print your data.
Looks like Grok Bot forgot how to use any of the computer skills that made it useful @bot you guys better fix it fast or moving to something else ... which would be a shame
Until 24h ago, @bot read Mac Mail/iMessages & sent texts. Now it only opens apps. Same issue on Pro+ & Enterprise. Both Macs: v0.79.3, macOS 27.2. Updated/retested; no diagnosis. Support says restart/check settings. Less support slop—what changed, and what's the fix?
@KyleReidhead My $20 subscription used to last full week, my $60 subscription (yesterday) is now at 65% after 2 days ... not to mention @bot got lobotomized in the last 24+ hours ... can't use mac tools or send iMessages anymore ...
@elonmusk@bot also lost any ability to use local Mac tools on three different laptops. Whatever happened it severely impacted its ability to be useful .. working with support but so far it’s futile and frustrating… thx for your help
