supergrok is a scam

I realized yesterday that the entire platform is a giant scam. Imagine if you paid an artist to paint a picture at his studio and deliver it to me a week later, and then he says 'well I have 40 hours of work into this, pay me.' So you pay him, and then he doesn't show you what he made and never delivers it because it's not very good, and you should allocate more money (ai tokens in the case of ai) to redo it. (because there never was a painting to begin with he was just scamming you).

Same with grok, you ask it to make a video, it pretends to make a video then says "moderated" and then doesn't show you what it made. The past few days I was sending it the same prompt five times and MAYBE it would actually make one video, it just kept saying moderated over and over again. Meanwhile it uses up your tokens to do this, also it doesn't even tell you what your token usage is, or how many you have. Perfect scam! At best it's censoring what it was programmed to make, so someone programmed code into it to make things that it will later censor knowing perfectly well this content its making would be censored, at worst it's literally not doing it to begin with and then claims it made something it had to censor, but with rate limits being what they are, my theory is that it's not doing anything and it's just programmed to pretend to make videos to use up your tokens. That is 100% a scam to take tokens / steal your paid access to the server and then says "rate limit reached pay more money". And then repeat the cycle again with supergrok heavy, even those users are saying they're getting limited.

I'm so glad I didn't fall for the 67% off scam I almost bought it and when I logged back in to it the next day the offer was gone.
