Neuralink patient with ALS uses Grok Bot to draft and auto-publish social posts via thought
XFreeze · x · 2026-09-11
Bradford G. Smith, a nonverbal ALS patient with a Neuralink implant, types with his thoughts — and Grok Bot turns that intention into action: watching YouTube links, drafting X and Facebook posts in his own voice, waiting for approval, retrying failures, and running recurring posts. He still approves everything; "judgment stays mine." A striking, heartwarming example of AI plus brain-computer interfaces restoring real independence.
