Users report Grok Bot quotas cut after Musk flags high running costs
Reports in the Telegraph and user complaints on X say several Grok Bot users saw their usage quotas roughly halved over a weekend; Elon Musk replied that "the cost of running Grok Bot was unsustainably high relative to revenue," though he did not explicitly confirm a cut. SpaceX president Gwynne Shotwell recently cited about 800,000 paying users per week in early October; Grok Bot shares quota with Grok and the coding platform Cursor, and the change comes as other firms like OpenAI and Anthropic tighten flat-rate or agent plans.
