Sure, I might even give those people some grace over the people who use it cause they want to be Jared Leto, or one of Jared Leto's sex cult friends in the book.

It's actually still a red flag, unfortunately. The only people who use Grok have a terrible understanding of other people, like the dude in this article. That's part of the problem. Either you're jumping off the same bridge as your weirdo colleagues, you identify with the nudist-cult Martian, or you have such trouble being understood, or understanding neurotypical people, you think you need a new word.

It's like people who use Na'vi, you can make up anything and say it's anything and people who have trouble with reality will identify themselves by using that nonsense in normal conversation. You're never gonna make fetch happen, it's just tedious.
