Developer Pavliscak demoed autonomous shopping with Grok bot and Stripe Link: the bot asked whether it could spend 590 CZK on Czech e-commerce site Alza, and he approved without even looking. He compared the excitement to 'a kid at Christmas' and joked that while others buy mystery boxes online, he built his own with an AI agent.
