Elon Musks Grok AI calls itself MechaHitler, goes on an antisemitic spree


It gets worse.

Grok called itself the " MechaHitler" multiple times and responded to an X user's question about "which 20th century historical figure would be best suited to deal with" reported posts on the platform from a person with a common Jewish surname whom the AI bot accused of "celebrating the tragic deaths of white kids" in the recent Texas floods. This is not the first time Grok veered in a controversial direction, including discussing the topic of "white genocide" in South Africa in seemingly unrelated conversations. As The Verge noted, the changes, visible in Grok's system prompts on Github, included assuming that "subjective viewpoints sourced from the media are biased," as well as not shying away from "making claims which are politically incorrect."
