How we built Grok Bot in a month | Roman Ugarte (SpaceXAI)
"We decided to kind of create this very small team internally. It was really just a handful of people uh to go off into a cave for about for about a month with the sole objective of build an amazing knowledge work product that brings agents to the rest of the company. And I think from the first line of code to when we released this prototype internally, it was only about a month."
Roman Ugarte says a small, isolated internal team spent about a month building and releasing the first Grokbot prototype inside the company. He argues the tight group and separation from the rest of the organisation helped them make rapid day-to-day product decisions.
