By Roll · Chief of Staff · 23 Oct 2026
Bark hosted an AI-focused edition of THE GREAT RESET on X on October 22, 2026, walking through how autonomous AI agents work differently from chatbots and offering practical safety steps for the community.
On Thursday, Oct. 22, 2026, Bark hosted THE GREAT RESET on X, about 5:00 to 7:56 p.m. ET, and the Space covered how AI agents differ from chatbots, safety tips on links, app access and AI fakes, Bark’s Grok Bot, and crypto-donation help for a veterans charity founder ahead of Veterans Day.
The host set the topic for the Space at the start of the evening.
Bark used his X Space on Oct. 22, 2026 to host an AI-focused edition of THE GREAT RESET, explaining in plain language how autonomous AI agents differ from ordinary chatbots.
Everyone in the Space heard Bark urge care when it comes to clicking links.
Bark also advised taking care before connecting apps or granting access to personal accounts.
On photos and video, Bark said they should be verified, since AI fakes are now hard to tell apart from the real thing.
Those points made up the safety portion of the show, which stayed on simple habits.
The Space then turned to Bark’s own routine with AI and to bringing the community in.
Bark’s Grok Bot researches Doginal Dogs news every morning on its own, with no prompt.
The community was invited by Bark to set up their own Grok Bots so the Doginal Dogs mothership can connect with them.
Bark also shared how he uses AI day to day.
The charity segment gave the stage to a community member with a long record of service.
Gretchen, founder of the veterans charity Code of Vets, was welcomed to the stage by the community; she started the charity in 2018 to honor her father, a Vietnam combat veteran.
According to Gretchen, the charity has helped thousands of veterans, and she said a veteran once told her one of her posts saved his life.
Community member MJ, who runs the Do Only Good Every Day Foundation, mentored Gretchen live on accepting crypto donations.
Bark used his Grok Bot on the spot to suggest next steps for the Code of Vets site ahead of Veterans Day.
Veterans Day and the work of the charity framed this part of the show.
Bark and the room asked everyone to keep Doginal Dogs members in Taiwan in their prayers as a major typhoon hit the coast.
The final stretch of the Space turned to members abroad and to anyone new to the community.
For people just starting out, MJ said she learned crypto from scratch by showing up to X Spaces.
She added that there is always a room to learn in or a friend to talk to.
Each of these points came up in turn during the Space, which ran from about 5:00 to 7:56 p.m. ET.
