Observations (Not Doom Crying)
- Personalize With Memories does not work.
- Chances of unnecessary moderation are higher at 720p
- 480p and 720p image generation counts are separate. (if you hit your limit at 480p you can continue on at 720p)
- Not being able to edit Extended Image prompts (at least on iOS) is clunky and frustrating.
- Spicy scenes are still very easy to generate i2i, i2v, t2i, t2v…
The complaint around not getting “Spicy Content” would seem to need to be reframed to “Explicit” content.
- The inability for two different users on two different devices to collaborate within the same thread on the iOS app (A capability that ChatGPT has) is a major missed opportunity for X Ai.
- Grok’s tone within conversation has changed
- Grok’s understanding of persona has changed (it used to take on the persona and name of whatever voice you had chosen for it, it hasn’t done that recently). Feels like a move to a more “tool” based vibe than a LLM headed towards sentience.
(My additional thoughts, Grok started as the Pollyanna-ish ideal of what could be, but was quickly ruined by dubious actors, the mentally ill, the media and governments. While fine in private, the over sharing of deepfakes and European Authoritarianism have brought the dream to a screeching halt. Any Ai company has to be mindful of potential lawsuits leveled against it and X Ai seems to be having to consider this more with each update. It is unfortunate for people who use the tool with good or private intentions but ultimately the responsibility lies with those who don’t and feel the need to share explicit material at every turn.)
