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.

The antisemitic posts from Grok came days after Elon Musk wrote on X that the chatbot had been improved "significantly."

Elon Musk said changes his xAI company made to Grok to be less politically correct had resulted in the chatbot being “too eager to please” and susceptible to being “manipulated.” That apparently led it to begin spewing out antisemitic and pro-Hitler comments on Musk’s X social platform Tuesday.
