What they did
On a trip in Japan, a Tesla manufacturing worker used Grok Bot as his travel agent. It booked and rescheduled bus and train tickets, put together a custom itinerary for each day, and rebooked his return flights, saving $350 by reaching out to a United agent online. It also found small local spots near where he was, using its newer iPhone location features.

Then check my return flight [airline, flight number] for a cheaper option or date.

Each day, suggest a few small local places near where I am.
