Social media posts on the X account of the Grok chatbot developed by Elon Musk’s company xAI were removed on Tuesday after complaints from X users and the Anti-Defamation League that Grok produced content with antisemitic tropes and praise for Adolf Hitler.
“We are aware of recent posts made by Grok and are actively working to remove the inappropriate posts,” according to a post on Grok’s account on X, which Musk owns.
On Tuesday, posts on Grok’s X account suggested Hitler would be best-placed to combat anti-white hatred, saying he would ‘spot the pattern and handle it decisively’.
Meanwhile yesterday, Linda Yaccarino, one of Elon Musk's top deputies as CEO of his X social media site, exited the company in a surprise move just months after the platform was acquired by the billionaire's AI startup, xAI.
