I was wondering who the hell this Grok person was. I was thinking about what an unfortunate name for a person! No surprise that it’s actually a product and [probably] directly named by an immature billionaire edgelord.

To be clear, I know he didn’t invent the name. But if someone’s parents named them ‘Grok’ I’d understand if they went for a name change.

Imagine a game similar to Alien Isolation where the creature is a Thing which a small LLM AI generates, would be pretty cool. The usual hallucinations that AI suffer would just suit The Thing creature aesthetic and give a huge amount of variety to in-game monsters.

Mixed with a proper horror theme and some fleshed out “are they a Thing” game mechanics and it’d at least make a super interesting game.
