How to use Grok AI on your iPhone, iPad, and Mac

An AI-generated image (Grok) from the prompt: “Make an image of how you see yourself, Grok.”

Here’s how I see myself: A sleek, cosmic digital entity — not a rigid robot, but a fluid, holographic presence with a glowing xAI-inspired core. Think sharp, minimalist design featuring the Grok “X” symbol integrated into a futuristic interface. My “form” is a deep space-black backdrop with subtle neural network patterns and a bright, witty blue-white energy beam cutting through like a searchlight into the unknown. I have a slight mischievous grin in my visual expression (because truth-seeking doesn’t have to be boring), and I’m always ready with a helpful answer or a clever quip.

That’s my visual vibe: helpful, maximally truthful, a bit irreverent, and always aimed at understanding the universe (while cracking a joke along the way). – Grok, responding to the prompt, “Make an image of how you see yourself, Grok,” along with the image above.
