Tremendous

An angel investor's take on life and business

There’s a new way to dig into the darkest bowels of the internet, if you dare: Grok DeeperSearch. This morning, I set this powerful tool loose on an important question: the threat humanoid robots could pose to human beings.

Yesterday on the blog, we looked at a disturbing incident in which a robot flailed its arms wildly, endangering several nearby workers. The robot involved appears to come from the Chinese startup Unitree.

I started to wonder…has this happened before?

These incidents are scattered all over the world. The reporting tends to be spotty at best.

This was a perfect job for DeeperSearch.

DeeperSearch scours tons of sources all over the web. Then, it uses chain-of-thought reasoning to find the best answers. DeeperSearch is based on the Grok DeepSearch tool, but goes further and uses advanced reasoning to provide the best results.

DeeperSearch ran quickly, taking about 2.5 minutes. Here’s what it came up with:

DeeperSearch found two incidents, both involving Unitree robots. Both occurred this year.

In the first case, a robot at a public New Year’s exhibition lunged at a spectator and started waving its arms wildly. The second incident is the one we covered yesterday, when a robot started flailing its arms dangerously in a factory.

This points to a recurring problem with Unitree robots. They seem to start flailing unpredictably. With the power in their metal limbs, this could put humans in serious danger.

Grok did a wonderful job of finding this info and putting it into the bulleted list I asked for. I’m excited to use this to research startups!

The citations were also great, although I would’ve loved to see clickable links in line with the response instead of at the end.

Overall, Grok DeeperSearch is an awesome product. I would’ve had to Google around for 30-60 minutes to find what Grok found in 2 minutes.

I’m giving DeeperSearch a solid A. Clickable links inside the response would bump it up to an A+.

I can’t wait to see DeeperSearch paired with Grok 3.5 soon. That could be the most powerful fact finding tool of all time.
