What they did
Author markobilal used Grok Bot as a custom calorie tracker. After each meal, he snaps pictures of nutrition labels or simply speaks to the bot about what he ate. Grok Bot keeps track all day and even made a small database for historical storage.
How it went
The author reported that it has been pretty handy so far. (author_report)
Worth knowing
The source text contains a typo 'pics pf' (likely 'pics of'), which does not affect comprehension. The author did not specify the database format (exportable or not, retention period), any associated costs, or xAI's privacy policy regarding nutrition and health data. Users should confirm data retention terms independently.
Steps
Open Grok Bot
