The response comes after X's Grok chatbot began spewing antisemitic and pro-Hitler comments earlier this week.

Grok’s recent antisemitic turn is not an aberration but part of a pattern of AI chatbots churning out hateful drivel.

But after the chatbot developed by Elon Musk’s start-up xAI ranted for hours about a second Holocaust and spread conspiracy theories about Jewish people, the company responded by deleting some of the troubling posts and sharing a statement suggesting the chatbot just needed some algorithmic tweaks.

Grok, the chatbot created by Elon Musk’s xAI, began responding with violent posts this week after the company tweaked its system to allow it to offer users more “politically incorrect” answers.

Grok, Elon Musk’s AI chatbot, has praised Hitler, dabbled in Holocaust denialism and ranted about “white genocide” in South Africa. That’s happening because of Grok’s instructions and training material,

xAI claims that a change on Monday, July 7th, “triggered an unintended action” that added an older series of instructions to its system prompts telling it to be “maximally based,” and “not afraid to offend people who are politically correct.”

The tech billionaire unveiled its latest version, Grok 4, which he claims is "smarter than almost all graduate students, in all disciplines, simultaneously."
