xAI Introduces 'Skills' Feature for AI Assistant Grok

Elon Musk's AI company, xAI, has launched the 'Skills' feature on web, iOS, and Android platforms. According to Odaily, this new feature enhances the AI assistant Grok with persistent memory across conversations, marking its evolution from a traditional single-interaction chatbot to a configurable and programmable automated workspace. The 'Skills' feature allows users to teach Grok specific task methods once, enabling it to permanently remember personal preferences, formatting rules, or specific workflow steps in all subsequent independent conversations. This development means users no longer need to repeatedly input tedious prompts or background settings when starting new conversations.
