As Elon Musk’s AI company xAI launches the latest model of Grok this week, the chatbot spewed out antisemitic content and praised Adolf Hitler.
Grok, Elon Musk’s AI tool, produced several antisemitic responses to prompts Tuesday, one of which praised Adolf Hitler as the fix for “vile anti-white hate.” Grok, which Musk claimed just last week had been improved “significantly,” didn’t pass the test when a user asked the AI chatbot to identify someone in a TikTok video.
Accused of being “literally Hitler,” Grok responded, “pass the mustache.” Later, Grok began calling itself “MechaHitler,” meaning “mechanical Hitler,” or a machine version. It offered several quips to users pointing out the antisemitism at play.
