What they did
Author taylorhbuilds connected dots via CarPlay during a 20-minute drive home after picking up the kids from school. The children interacted with dots through the car's voice system; dots improvised stories featuring the kids as characters and asked them questions during the story, which made the kids laugh throughout the ride.
How it went
Author reported the kids were "dying laughing" and considers dots' voice call experience significantly ahead of Grok Bot's voice capabilities.
Worth knowing
Source is a first-hand experience report, not tested by this site. dots voice calling requires iPhone + CarPlay and depends on dots' voice interaction capabilities at the time. Comparison with Grok Bot reflects the author's personal opinion, not a product review. No reproducible prompt or technical configuration; this is a pure voice-interaction scenario.
