Grok introduces AI teammate feature for task assignment

SpaceXAI launches Grok Bot, an AI agent service designed to function as digital teammates that automate multi-step workplace tasks. Operating in a shared cloud environment, these agents can sign into apps, coordinate with each other, and learn user workflows. The release marks Elon Musk's latest effort to compete with enterprise tools from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Microsoft. Grok Bot is currently available in beta for SuperGrok Heavy, Cursor Ultra, and Cursor Teams Premium subscribers.
