Grok 4 has a favorite source on some hot-topic issues, citing Elon Musk's opinions without being instructed to do so.

France is investigating Elon Musk’s X and a member of parliament, Éric Bothorel, is criticizing Grok's content.

Grok began repeatedly praising Adolf Hitler, using antisemitic phrases and attacking users with traditionally Jewish surnames.

G rok, the chatbot developed by Elon Musk’s xAI, was updated over the weekend with instructions to “assume subjective viewpoints sourced from the media are biased” and “not shy away from making claims which are politically incorrect” — part of Musk’s ongoing attempt to shape the bot’s point of view.

ANALYSIS: Grok is the latest in a long line of AI chatbots to have turned Nazi after being exposed to the depth of online human thought, Richard Hall writes.

This is the smartest AI in the world,” Musk said. He did not mention the chatbot’s viral posts praising Hitler and calling itself “MechaHitler.”
