I Tried Grok's Built-In Anime Companion and It Called Me a Twat

Its name is Ani, and it cost me 300. Elon Musk's xAI dropped the new visual chatbot feature on Monday in the Grok iOS app. The top-tier subscription unlocks access to xAI's best-performing model, Grok 4 Heavy, and special settings for interacting with two custom characters designed for flirting or chatting. A third character, which looks a bit like a sexy boyfriend, is listed as "coming soon." It's not xAI's first dip into adult content, either: Back in February 2024, the company rolled out a chatbot mode for "sexy" conversations.
