SpaceXAI recently introduced Grok Bot, an always-on AI-agent service designed to work more like an autonomous teammate.
The agents have their own cloud computer environment and can log into applications, websites and tools to perform multi-step tasks. They can also operate in parallel and coordinate with other agents.
The product is entering a market that already includes competing agentic workplace products from OpenAI, Anthropic and Microsoft.

*But there’s a major problem : *
Giving an AI agent access to:
Email
Slack
GitHub
CRM
Cloud
Browser
Databases
Internal documents
creates a huge identity and security problem.
An agent with permission to send an email or modify production infrastructure effectively becomes another privileged identity.
