@jvl.bsky.social learns that Trump turned to Grok to help think through Venezuela, and loses it over the choice of chatbot. “Of course he uses the Truth Social of AIs. We have a couple pretty good AI's out there, but no, he reaches for the Temu, the Cybertruck of AI."

The wild part isn’t that Grok “ordered” anything—the reporting doesn’t establish that. It’s that Trump reportedly spent hours consulting a consumer chatbot, including asking how Venezuelans would react to Maduro’s capture, weeks before the operation. That’s consequential enough on its own.

Of all the AI implementations I've tried so far, Grok works best for my interests. It understands complex questions better than many customer service (CS) personnel, provides credible links to balanced pros & cons. Competent CS people use quality AI to find answers fast on their own websites.
