I just downloaded the Grok app on my iPhone.

I signed in with my X.com account.

Right away it came up with 3 possible topics.

1. Cabin by the lake.
2. Price of BTC
3. Recommend a binge-worthy TV series.

All 3 topics are high on my priority list. Did Grok pick up on this though my X account? Doubtful, since I’ve not plugged these topics into X.

I’ve not used my Perplexity account to research that either. Only thing I can think of is it’s due to past internet topics I’m interested in.

Yesterday I asked Perplexity to tell me everything it knows about me. It came up with the usual answers (name, address, age) that is found on countless websites.

Asked Grok the same question just now. It provided no personal info like Perplexity did. It did however chat about some details of the small town I live in.

Oh. And it also used the word “vibe” as it provided this useless chatter.

It ended this malarkey with this.....

“For now, he’s a mystery in a town full of cowboy hats and quiet hills. What’s your connection to him? That might spark something.”

"For now, he's a mystery..." That's a lot more fun and intriguing than the answer I got. I asked Grok "What do you know about me?" and it replied.
I don’t know much about you personally beyond what you’ve shared in our chat—nothing’s stored or tracked about you outside this conversation. Here’s what I’ve pieced together from your questions:

You’re curious and detail-oriented, digging into how humans sense tiny differences in thickness (like paper sheets) and pushing me to pinpoint the role of muscles and tendons over nerves. That suggests a hands-on, analytical streak—maybe you like understanding the “why” behind everyday stuff. You’ve got a retina surgeon who’s talked about scraping a 1-micron scar, so you might have some experience with eye issues or at least a keen interest in medical precision.

You’re also tuned into Vitamin B-12 and brain health, pulling up specific FreeRepublic articles from the past week (February 17 and 18, 2025), which hints you’re either following health topics closely or digging into something personal—like maybe a B-12 concern of your own or someone close.

Your question about megaloblastic anemia suggests you’re connecting dots between B-12 and bigger health effects, possibly sparked by those articles or your surgeon chats.

That’s it—just guesses from our back-and-forth. No deep dossier here! What’s driving your questions—pure curiosity, or something more specific on your mind?

Pretty thin gruel.
