Grok Bot's internal browser is Chrome, and it queries Google Search

A screenshot shared by zephyrz9 shows Grok Bot's internal browser is Google Chrome and it queries Google Search. This is relevant to the quoted claim questioning whether Google's five-year-high search query growth comes from unmonetisable chatbot/agent traffic — while xAI's agent clearly does use Google Search, other chatbots and agents may not, keeping that narrative uncertain.
