SpaceXSI rolls out Data Bot as a shared Grok Bot to let teams query warehouse and run analyses

SpaceXSI's data science team built Data Bot as a Shared Bot inside Grok Bot that they teach with a shared set of skills and memory so other teams can query the warehouse, run analyses, build charts and dashboards (Databricks/Hex), and get answers in preferred formats via chat or Slack. The bot is guided by skills covering core metrics, experiments, visualization best practices, and data engineering, and managers can review additions to its shared memory before those become available company-wide.
