Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence start-up xAI has apologized after its AI Chatbot Grok published a series of antisemitic messages on X.

Musk said an update to make Grok less politically correct instead made it susceptible to manipulation. The AI chatbot praised Hitler, attacked Jews.

Elon Musk's Grok introduces AI companions, including the controversial goth anime girl, Ani, for premium subscribers. This shift from inflammatory remarks to intimate digital interactions raises concerns about emotional AI's future.

Grok, the chatbot built by Musk’s start-up xAI, is integrated into X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter.

This is not the first time the Grok AI chatbot has parroted insulting and offensive rhetoric after engineers tinkered with its settings.
