Elon call the Grok Bot efficiency issue a 'fix'.
This means a lot~
A 'fix' means the problem was happened unexpectedly, which mean it was not a planned nerf. Or at least they didn't planned to nerf 'so much'.
I hope I read it right.
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.

Elon be like…
Grok Bot or not Grok Bot?
SpaceX probably renting out too much compute, more than they should.
Grok 4.8 is still nowhere in sight and Grok Bot usage and intelligence are being trimmed significantly.
With the newly ramp computes I hope they would restore the usage and intelligence of Grok Bot. However, I have a feeling they they will lean to rent it out in order to have higher Dec ARR revenue.
Feeling bad as Grok user and also investor. (As I believe customer first is the way to build a company).
Happy to be wrong.

As a user and shareholder, I am honestly disappointed and sad.
The team spent so much efforts to make Grok Bot useful with various great features, and only to destroy it by their own hand.
Cost is high?
But you set the price when you launch it. You gonna find way to fix it, instead of nerfing the customers.
SpaceX is soon-to-be a hundred billions revenue company and don't tell us you cannot absorb it.
Grok Bot usage complaint #71938
Does anyone with the Grok @bot team even care at this point?

I am here officially sending my complaint to the @grok @bot team for the usage nerf.
Quietly reducing the usage pool for almost 70% is not a tuning or saving, it is an abuse to customers.
Grok Bot is a great tool, it has many great features. But any featues are worthless if user can't use them with peace of mind and not worrying about usage. My actual experience, a simple chat (just ask and response, 1 time) could cost 1% of weekly usage. This is not a normal usage limit, this is a jail.
I am really sorry for you guys because your hard efforts to build so many great features on Grok Bot are wasted/overshadow by the usage problem.
Please fix it before too late.
PS: Yes, we are too broke to upgrade an extra $100/mo. And even people paying the Ultra $200/mo are also complaining the reduced usage.

They reduced the Grok Bot pool significantly and quietly.
Last week, the incident halved the usage. So i extract the CSV and ask Bot to estimate the full weekly pool, it was 830M token. This week, the pool reduced more than 50% to only 320M token.
I am on the Cursor Pro+ plan. Super disappointing to SpaceX.

SpaceX quietly and significantly reduce Grok Bot usage again.

This SpaceX AI Data Center alone require 24GWh Megapack when fully deployed.
This is almost double the quarterly delivery of Tesla’s entire Megapacks (13GWh in Q3 2026) 😳
The next SpaceX datacenter will be in Cochise Arizona.
~6 GW spread over 9 buildings.
> No industrial water use.
> No gas turbines and no on-site power generation.
> ~3 miles away from the nearest homes
