User asks Grok about a noise overhead — the agent opens a browser and tracks the helicopter
mertdumenci · x · 2026-10-03
mertdumenci heard something flying overhead and asked Grok (via X search) what it was. Grok autonomously used a browser inside its chat product, pulled up a flight-tracking site, located a helicopter, and visually analyzed its trajectory to conclude nothing unusual was happening. The author was struck by how agentic the behavior was.
