Topics:

• Running late!
• Recently I started to get prompts from X to upgrade to their new Premium+ plan, from my existing Premium one.
• As part of that upgrade, I get access to their new beta AI named Grok.
• I started to look into Grok to see if it was worth doubling my subscription fee, but felt disappointed that it is Yet Another Chat Bot (YACB).
• We need to move beyond AI being an education aide for looking things up, to AI being a workflow automation aide to make your daily life easier.
• With that I mind, I have the following feature requests for Grok to improve my overall X experience:
  1. Scan my blog RSS and periodically post blogs here from my archive.
  2. Do the same for my podcast RSS.
  3. Suggest people I should follow based upon topics I post about.
  4. Give me a morning summary of X posts I missed from those I follow.
  5. Notify me of trending topics I set alerts for.
  6. Auto-mute people based on filter rules I configure.
  7. Auto-respond to my post replies, using my writing style.
  8. Warn me of people blocking me but still sending hidden responses.
  9. Auto-caption my X video uploads.
  10. Review my posts before publication for spelling mistakes or factual errors.
• If I gave it some deeper thought, I am sure I could come up with a longer list.
• Having a chat bot with a cool personality is fun, but I want more utility.
• What I am working on this week:
  • Personal projects on hold.
• Media I am enjoying this week:
  • Shift by Hugh Howey
