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.

In a livestream with xAI colleagues, the billionaire entrepreneur described current AI systems as “primitive” and not for “serious” commercial use.

Elon Musk ignored hot-button issues including Linda Yaccarino’s departure and Grok’s sudden antisemitic outbursts as xAI presented the latest version of its large language model.
