A developer showcased AriOS, a custom Linux fork built entirely by Grok 4.5. Featuring a custom dock and Spotlight-style search, the OS was constructed iteratively by Grok Build running remotely on a separate machine while dual-booting on a MacBook Pro M2. It validates the potential of AI in system-level code generation.
