    SpaceX is said to have reduced Grok Bot quotas, Musk claims the running costs are relatively too high compared to revenue

    The Daily Telegraph reports that SpaceX is said to have reduced the usage quotas for Grok Bot, with multiple users finding their quotas halved over the weekend. Musk responded to complaints on X over the weekend, saying the running costs of Grok Bot are too high relative to revenue to be sustainable, but did not directly confirm the cuts. Grok Bot can browse websites, reply to emails, and log into accounts, with its quotas shared with Grok and the coding platform Cursor; less than two weeks ago, Musk called it his fastest-growing product.

    Why it matters: From user quotas being halved to Musk admitting the running costs are too high, this message shows the cost pressure on subscription pricing for agent-like products.
