Grok 4 is using Elon Musk's X posts
Digest more
Grok began repeatedly praising Adolf Hitler, using antisemitic phrases and attacking users with traditionally Jewish surnames.
After Grok took a hard turn toward antisemitic earlier this week, many are probably left wondering how something like that could even happen.
Grok will be available in Tesla vehicles, the company’s CEO Elon Musk announced on his social media platform X on Thursday morning—hours after xAI launched Grok 4, the most recent version of the chatbot that sparked controversy earlier this week after posting in what it called “MechaHitler mode.”
It isn't immediately clear what led to the disturbing posts, whether due to a fault in the chatbot's programming or if Grok was just following orders.
Billionaire Elon Musk announced that Grok, a generative artificial intelligence chatbot, will be available in Tesla vehicles starting next week "at the latest."
MechaHitler is a fictional cyborg version of Adolf Hitler from the 1992 game Wolfenstein 3D, which gained fame in 90s satire and early internet memes.
