Musk's AI company xAI launches "Skills" feature
CoinFeed reported on May 19th that xAI, Elon Musk's AI company, announced the simultaneous launch of its "Skills" feature on web, iOS, and Android platforms. This feature gives the AI assistant Grok persistent memory across conversations, marking Grok's evolution from a traditional one-way question-and-answer chatbot to a configurable, programmable automated workflow. According to reports, through the "Skills" feature, users only need to teach Grok how to perform a specific task once, and Grok can permanently remember related personal preferences, formatting rules, or specific workflow steps in all subsequent independent conversations. This means that users no longer need to tediously repeat cumbersome pre-conversations or background settings when starting a new conversation.
