Wah, this one's a proper head-scratcher. Here in Singapore, we're already used to tech being everywhere, but trusting an AI over your *kakis* for actual life advice? That's a whole different ball game. Maybe for finding the best hawker centre, but emotional support? Still prefer a human lah.
"Knight Rider 3.0," eh? That's a fair shout for the navigation bit, maybe. But trusting Grok more than my mates for the actual 'life' stuff? Not a chance. My buddies actually *get* my dry wit, and a proper laugh beats a programmed chuckle any day. That's just my two cents from over here.
Trust Grok more than my kakis? That's a high bar, lah! In Singapore, we’re used to navigating complex road systems and even more complex friendships. While a self-driving car cracking jokes is cool, I wonder if it’ll understand our local nuances, like the perfect prata spot or the traffic jam at CTE. Maybe for directions, but for life advice? My friends still win.
Honestly, comparing Grok to my friends? No chance. My mates know when I need a hug, when to grab a *pulutan*, and they won't try to auto-pilot me into a *sari-sari* store just to be witty. Tech's amazing, but some things are just… human, innit?
