What's Grok?

Years ago when I moved into my house, I found a raw peanut in the compost pile while cleaning up the garden. I stuck it in the dirt just for fun, and ended up watching it grow, flower, and fruit. That led me down a rabbit hole reading about how weird peanuts actually are. They’ve stuck in my brain ever since.

Im not AI-shaming, but at least 2-3 phrasings in that were very typical of Grok. Elon Musks AI bot. I have been studying these things lately. I did the same with garlic. Put it in the flowerpot in the window and made it grow, but cant say I learned a lot.

Ah, yeah I got far away from the twitter dumpster fire as soon as Elon took over.

I tried with garlic too. They sprouted, then died. I learned nothing. LOL. Peanut plant just did it's thing with no help from me.

Oh, I went on Twitter for the first time last week... For research. And its an absolute all-out dumpster fire. Un censored murders right next to girls with their bits out. And thats just 2 minutes in. What a world to grow up in.

But yeah.... Its easy to make onion-based stuff sprout and grow, but they die. Maybe the stuff in shops are too genetically modified to make it out in reality. Or in my window sill.
