A developer who has tested every major AI model this year told me Elon Musk’s new AI push is not really about building a smarter chatbot. It’s about building an AI that can act. Grok 4.7 can handle a 500,000-token context window, work through coding and agentic tasks, and process text and image inputs. Grok 4.6 was built specifically to stay with complex tasks across many steps—research, codebases, analysis, and turning ideas into working outputs. Musk’s latest move is bigger than another model update. He is trying to turn Grok into an assistant that can browse, plan, use tools, and complete work—not just answer questions. He told me something most people are missing: “Everyone is comparing AI models by asking them questions. Musk is building AI that can be given a job. The difference between answering a question and finishing a task is the difference between a search engine and an employee.” He said the new Grok strategy is built around three things: massive compute, long-running agents, and deep integration with X, Tesla, and SpaceX. “Musk is not trying to win the chatbot race. He is trying to make AI part of the infrastructure around your phone, your car, your internet, and your work.” He showed me 9 things most people get wrong about Elon Musk’s new AI—and why Grok’s next phase may matter more than another benchmark score. Here’s the full playbook: 🧵

A guy who has spent 7 years selling on Amazon and managing more than $4 million in annual ad spend told me the first product on your search results is not always the best product. It’s the product that won an auction, matched the keyword, had a strong listing, and convinced Amazon shoppers to buy after clicking. That “Sponsored” label you scroll past every day? It is one of the most profitable advertising systems in the world. He told me something most Amazon shoppers have never considered: “Amazon does not just show you products. It sells access to your attention. Every time you search for something, sellers are bidding for the chance to appear in front of you.” He said the search results are not a neutral list. “Amazon is part store, part search engine, and part auction house. The product you see first may be there because it is popular—or because someone paid for that position.” He showed me 9 things most people get wrong about Amazon search results—and the system that decides which products you see before you even scroll. Here’s the full playbook: 🧵

He said the ninth mistake is thinking the best Amazon shopper avoids ads completely. The smart shopper reads them differently. A sponsored product is not automatically bad. It may be a new product trying to get visibility, a strong seller competing for attention, or a relevant option you would have missed. “The ad tells you someone wants your attention. The listing tells you whether they deserve it.” He said the best habit is simple: “Check the product, the reviews, the seller, the return policy, and the total price. Do not reward a listing just because it appeared first.”

Secrets. Same Amazon search bar. Same shopping results. Completely different outcome, based on whether you read the page like a shopper or a marketer. You stopped assuming the first result was the best product, and started checking whether it earned the position. You noticed the “Sponsored” label, and stopped confusing paid placement with organic popularity. You compared the ad product with the organic results below it, and stopped letting one listing control the entire decision. You checked the product detail page after clicking, and stopped blaming the ad when the listing was the real problem. You read recent reviews instead of only looking at the star rating, and stopped treating review count as proof of current quality. You compared total price, shipping, and seller information, and stopped assuming every offer on the same product page was identical. You checked whether the product matched the keyword you searched, and stopped rewarding vague listings with vague titles. You noticed when the same product followed you from another app, and stopped thinking Amazon ads only live inside Amazon. You used ads as one option—not the default option—and stopped letting the top of the page make the decision for you. “Amazon built a store where the search bar looks neutral, but every result is competing for your click.” “Same search. Same products. Different awareness.” “One shopper sees the first listing and buys it. Another shopper sees the first listing, checks the reviews, compares the price, and finds a better deal three rows down.” “The difference isn’t Amazon. It’s knowing that the search results are an auction.” “Before your next Amazon purchase, scroll past the first sponsored result.” If this was useful, repost the first post so more shoppers can stop reading Amazon search results like a neutral ranking.

A Costco employee who has worked the membership desk for 8 years told me most members do not save money at Costco. They spend more money at Costco. They walk in for eggs, leave with a $400 cart, skip the gas station, ignore the coupon book, and never check whether their membership fee can be refunded. The $65 membership is not the problem. Not knowing how Costco works is. He told me something most shoppers have never considered: “Costco is not designed to make you spend less on every item. It’s designed to make you spend more per trip while believing you saved. The members who win are the ones who know the rules.” He said the biggest mistake people make is treating Costco like a regular grocery store. “Costco is not a supermarket. It’s a buying club. The prices are built around bulk, limited selection, and getting you through the door often enough to spend more than you planned.” He showed me 9 things most Costco members get wrong—and the system that turns a $65 membership into real savings instead of a bigger garage full of stuff. Here’s the full playbook:🧵

9. He said the ninth mistake is assuming the sticker price is the whole story. Costco uses unit prices, package sizes, coupons, instant rebates, and seasonal items. A lower shelf price is not always the lowest cost per use. “A 3-pack may look expensive until you divide it by servings. A sale item may look cheap until you realize you will throw half of it away.” He said the smart shopper compares three things: “Price per unit, price per use, and whether the product will actually get used.”

10 secrets. Same warehouse. Same membership. Completely different outcome, based on the habits you bring through the door. You made a list before entering, and stopped walking out with $180 of things you never planned to buy. You compared Kirkland to the name brand, and stopped paying extra for a label when the store brand was the better value. You checked the return window before buying electronics, and stopped assuming every product had the same policy. You checked whether your membership fee was refundable, and stopped treating Costco like a contract you could not exit. You filled up at the Costco gas station when the price made sense, and stopped driving past savings every week. You calculated whether Executive Membership paid for itself, and stopped upgrading just because it sounded premium. You checked Costco Travel before booking a hotel, and stopped leaving potential savings on the table. You compared unit prices instead of sticker prices, and stopped assuming the biggest package was always the best deal. You bought only what your household could finish, and stopped turning “bulk savings” into wasted food. “Costco built a store where the membership can pay for itself, but only if you know the rules. The price tag tells you what to buy. The unit price tells you whether it is a deal. The return policy tells you what happens after.” “Same warehouse. Same cart. Different habits.” “One member pays $65, buys what they came for, and leaves the savings on the shelf. Another pays $65, checks Kirkland, uses the gas station, and takes home hundreds in value they didn’t have to hunt for.” “The difference isn’t the warehouse. It’s the 10 minutes you spend before you walk in.” “Open the Costco app before your next trip.”
