"63 calls this month. 63 notices. The last 9 days, zero spam." X user nexor (@nexor404) said on Nov. 11 that he told Grok Bot to pick up every call flagged as spam risk. The bot, he claimed, told callers the line was recorded and the number was on the Do Not Call registry, cited up to $1,500 per call under the TCPA, and then mailed each company a written notice. The post drew about 780 likes.
xAI took Grok Bot out of beta the same day with version 1.0. The headline feature is Team Bots: a whole team can share one bot, add it to Slack and Microsoft Teams, and invite it to video meetings. According to Windows Report, bots remember decisions and preferences, flag upcoming deadlines and stalled tasks on their own, ask for approval before sensitive actions and check whether information belongs in a public channel. Team Bots need a Team or Enterprise plan; meetings also work on Ultra.
Elon Musk wrote "Hire Grok @Bot as a colleague and give it your hardest tasks!" (10,000 likes). A day earlier Cursor shipped multiplayer Projects, where each teammate's agent shares one task board and asks other agents directly.
Reactions were mixed. One user said the bot "printed my day as a newspaper - schedule, packages, comic, crossword." Another replied to Musk that three hours of real work used 50% of his weekly budget on the $100-a-month plan. Grok Bot reset everyone's weekly limits on Nov. 9 after similar complaints.
