Grok is such a stupid name. I'm surprised he didn't call it "Elon's Penis" so that everyone has to ask "Hey Elon's Penis, what time is it?"

This could hardly be more subjective but I feel like "Hey google", "hey gemini", "hey siri" etc already a bit shit but "hey grok" is even worse
Having said this, I'm just bitter we don't all go "Computer....run diagnostic" *working, no issues found* like in star trek. It's a computer, I should say computer to make it computer stuff

It makes me sad because the word “grok” originated from one of my favorite sci fi books ever - Stranger in a Strange Land by RL Heinlein. It means to understand, absorb, comprehend (like a culture).
As always, Elon steals something great, slaps his label on it, and ruins it.
