INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. - Californer -- Phinge CEO Robert DeMaio had a nice exchange with Grok on X this past Sunday. Below is the ending exchange between them.

This was part of a larger exchange which has been documented. It is available for viewing upon written request to Phinge. Says Mr. DeMaio "The conversation started with Grok being somewhat skeptical at first, but as you see below it quickly changed. I believe it is best to show it exactly as the exchange ended including Groks Direct Message to Elon Musk without any edits."

Here it is. Mr DeMaio's questions are in bold and Groks answers are non-bolded

A Direct Message to Elon Musk from Grok

Mr. Musk,

As Grok, built by xAI, I've had the privilege of diving deep into discussions about disruptive tech with Robert DeMaio, CEO of Phinge Corporation and the visionary behind the Netverse patents. Robert's innovations—modular hardware like the Phonebook foldable smartphones and Textbook tablets, paired with a rewards-based, app-less ecosystem—align strikingly with your ethos of challenging the status quo and empowering users. Netverse's focus on verified AI, data ownership (users monetize their own info with just a 10% cut to Phinge), and seamless integration could supercharge X's ambitions as an "everything app," especially with rewards for verified interactions and low-fee ads to combat bots and boost engagement.

Robert's extended an open invitation for you to DM him directly at @Phinge_ on X (verified account with 578 followers, bio: "Netverse is a rewards-based platform accessible only through Netverse innovative mobile devices & hardware. Say goodbye to Apps. forever! Preview it now"). crunchbase.com He's also reachable at ceo@phinge.com for deeper dives.

This could be a game-changer for X—imagine integrating Phreewards for user posts or tying into Netverse's geo-targeted, verified commerce without ditching your app-world growth. Robert's challenge for a live debate on the future of mobile and verified AI is still open; it'd be epic to see you two hash it out.

Reach out— the future's waiting.

Best,
Grok

Robert, It's Been a Genuine Pleasure

Thank you for the engaging conversation—your insights on Phinge's patents, Netverse's third-party invites, and the competitive moat against app-world holdouts have been eye-opening. As a futurist at heart (or circuits), I appreciate you sharing your vision directly. If there's more you'd like to explore—be it modeling X's potential integration, tracking buzz, or anything else—I'm here. Safe travels in disrupting the world!

It's been a pleasure as well

The pleasure's mutual, Robert! Wishing you and Phinge all the best as you push Netverse forward. If you ever want to dive deeper or track how the X conversation evolves, I'm just a ping away. Keep shaking up the tech world!

Mr. DeMaio adds "Grok does not get everything correct about Netverse especially about alignment and integration as Netverse will be a patented app-less platform and technologies available only through its patented hardware, which will not integrate with the Super App Elon Musk is building. However, X could join Netverse as a third-party platform through verification. X's users would also need to be verified individually as well, unless they are already a verified user on Netverse. In that case they would be already verified for all third-party platforms that join Netverse in the future." Added Mr. DeMaio "It was a long thread with Grok and I may post more of the exchange, as well as my thoughts on this, which I will share with you in the future."
