The Guardian reports that xAI, in Southaven, Mississippi, has been offering to buy homes from residents through real estate agents on the condition that homeowners not join a class-action lawsuit over noise from its gas turbines. One agent said the goal is to purchase 418 homes, and 18 households have already agreed to sell; xAI did not respond to these figures and denies all allegations in the noise lawsuit. Local residents say the gas turbines run around the clock and produce constant noise resembling that of airplane engines, and three residents filed suit in June.

After each building their own Grok Bot, the SpaceXSI sales team consolidated them into three role-based Shared Bots: the Account Intel Bot handles customer research and Salesforce updates, the Quote Bot generates quotes and order forms, and the Deal Bot reviews non-standard terms and approvals. These Bots share company knowledge and business rules, execute according to each user's permissions, and have rate limits set for sensitive operations; human review is still required when standards cannot be clearly determined or when customer communication is involved.

xAI launches the SpaceX Super Intelligence partner network for companies building products, solutions, and services on Grok, divided into two categories: Transformation Partners and Marketplace Partners. More than 130 companies have already participated in the program's early access phase, and the Forward Deployed Engineer certification program has trained engineers at more than 30 organizations. Bain & Company, Databricks, NVIDIA, Snowflake, and others are among the first Launch Partners.
xAI has added two AI teammates, IncidentWatch and IncidentSweep, to Grok Bot, responsible respectively for monitoring incident signals in customer support tickets and for bulk-closing affected tickets. IncidentWatch checks tickets from the past 15 minutes every 5 minutes and notifies the on-call support engineer when it detects a surge of similar issues. In an incident on September 18, IncidentSweep cleared 204 tickets in about 10 minutes with the review and approval of a support engineer.
