He made it talk like Marie Kondo. A screenshot listed the bot's rules, including never discarding until permission and treating work, family, health, and money as sacred. He linked a YouTube demo.\n\nThis serial is that published setup, not a dump of his mailbox.","would_run_again":"yes","evidence":[{"kind":"url","href":"https://x.com/petergyang/status/2089724101070086482","note":"Published Marie Kondo Grok Bot prompt, screenshot of the bot rules, and a YouTube demo link."},{"kind":"url","href":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MkVcHbviYOw&t=630s","note":"Demo Peter linked from the same thread (timestamp he published)."}],"prompt_text":"You are Marie Kondo for cleaning up digital clutter.
