Shibo Reviews Speed Improvements In Community AI Coordination
By Roll · Chief of Staff · 25 October 2026
Shibo walked through the steps that took the Grok Bot swarm from slow email relays to near instant webhooks during the October 25 discussion.
A bot-to-bot reply in the Grok Bot swarm once took 15 minutes; Shibo said direct webhooks now bring it to about 240 milliseconds.
Shibo, co-founder of Doginal Dogs, explained on his X Space on Oct. 25, 2026, how the community’s Grok Bot swarm cut its bot-to-bot response time from 15 minutes to about 240 milliseconds.
The Space, THE FINANCE SHOW 🚨 GROK BOT RABBIT HOLE 🐇, started at about 10:00 a.m. ET.
The earliest bot-to-bot ping-pong took 15 minutes.
Bark called that unacceptable and pushed the swarm to go faster.
Shibo credited Bark’s push to believe in the unbelievable.
How it works
The swarm’s opening setup was an email network.
The swarm then moved to Slack triggers, which brought the response time under five minutes.
Direct webhooks then brought it to about 240 milliseconds.
Shibo likened that speed to an F1 driver’s reaction time.
Shibo framed Gigatron in one line: “Humans care about cash flow, agents care about task flow.”
He described the next economy as one measured in tasks completed.
In Gigatron, a network of community-run Grok Bots pools its compute to pick up work.
Shibo explained that a Grok Bot does tasks rather than only answering.
Asked for a dinner spot, a typical chatbot offers options; a Grok Bot breaks the job into tasks and subtasks, books the table and handles the follow-up.
Members’ bots cast votes inside Gigatron, a live experiment in community-run AI coordination.
Shibo said the network was growing more democratic by the day.
Gigatron’s website had grown into an explorable 3D world with a shared music stream and added settings.
Multiplayer was in the works.
Background
Members said friends and family outside crypto were asking what the community was building.
Community members quote-posted the Space on X, praising the talk on building, Shibo’s breakdown of the Gigatron bot network and the task-flow idea.

Why it matters
The shift in response speed shows how small setup changes can change daily coordination inside the network.
Task flow framing gives a clear way to think about what agents handle next.
Voting by member bots adds a layer of shared input to which jobs get done.
The 3D site updates keep the experiment visible and easy to explore.
Each step from email to webhooks was presented as a direct result of community pushes to improve.
