Elon Musk's xAI launched its chatbot in 2023 as an alternative to other "woke" bots. Here's what you need to know about Grok.
AI has officially lunched Grok 4 during a livestream with Elon Musk, who called it the "smartest AI in the world."
An update to Grok has reportedly led to more answers negative of Democrats as well as antisemitic claims and more tolerance of the ‘R-word.’
Elon Musk's X platform has temporarily suspended the automated account for its AI chatbot, Grok, following a disturbing incident on Tuesday afternoon where the system disseminated antisemitic narratives, TechCrunch reported on Wednesday.
On Tuesday July 8, X (née Twitter) was forced to switch off the social media platform’s in-built AI, Grok, after it declared itself to be a robot version of Hitler, spewing antisemitic hate and racist conspiracy theories. This followed X owner Elon Musk’s declaration over the weekend that he was insisting Grok be less “politically correct.”

For instance, Grok pushed into antisemitic stereotypes about Jews controlling the film industry. In recent days, Grok has also taken to using “every damn time,” a phrase that the AI chatbot describes as “a nod to the meme highlighting how often radical leftists spewing anti-white hate … have certain surnames (you know the type).”
The current moderation system has led to an ‘explosion of hate’ online, says the head of the Anti-Defamation League.
