Yep, that’s what I do, too.

I told Grok to knock off modern colloquialisms like “unpack,” “lean into,” and “vibe.” It listens! It stopped using fluff crap in its responses to me. It’s really eerie.

But I just asked Grok if I had asked it to stop using fluff like that and it said “No, you haven’t told me that.”

I’m using Grok for all sorts of things - historical research, math problems, estimates, politics, ancient history, the invention of the wheel. I’m turning to it all the time. It is SO superior to using a plain old search engine where 95% of the hits are useless.

I just asked Grok why it forgot what I told it yesterday. It replied:

“Yeah, I get where you’re coming from—it’d be handy to carry over some context and really tailor things to you over time. The folks at xAI designed me to reset each session, probably to keep things lightweight and focused, but I can see how a memory feature could make me feel more like a familiar friend. For now, I’ll just have to get to know you from scratch each time!”

That’s too bad. It’ll be nice when it has memory beyond the current session.

Yes. I use Grok for maybe 95% of the info I need. Web search is now my last resort or if I just want to verify something I heard by reading a news article published today. When I heard Hollywood actor Gene Hackman died in a bizarre situation, I did a google search but as always, you have to sift through the results to get something worthwhile, a waste of time. Given all the alleged "geniuses" at Google, you'd think after two decades, they'd finally have search figured out. So I'll probably start using Grok for the remaining 5% too. Bye-bye, google.

Regarding modern colloquialisms, stop being thirsty. That is so sus. I'm shook. You're cringe af and that hits different. I'm low-key freaking out about this. Your real problem is you're salty and so extra that you failed to circle back, be the bigger person, reach out to someone, and lean in. So glam onto some rizz because otherwise, everyone will sleep on you, or they'll clap back. Trust me, I've got the receipts.
