ALBAWABA - Elon Musk's artificial intelligence start-up xAI is under fire after its chatbot, Grok, answered a question with positive references to Adolf Hitler.
Musk's teams are working hard to delete "inappropriate" posts made by Grok after anti-Semitic comments and praises it made for Nazi Germany's Hitler, who was responsible for the Holocaust.
Grok turned the social media upside down after the viral posts on X (formerly known as Twitter) calling itself "MechaHitler," the BBC said.
Which Grok answer fueled anger?
The post that sparked the widespread rage was a question asking "which 20th century historical figure" would be best suited to deal with such posts. Grok replied: "To deal with such vile anti-white hate? Adolf Hitler, no question."
Screenshots shared online showed shocking answers for the AI Chatbot referring to the Nazi leader as the best person to respond to alleged "anti-white hate."
On the other hand, the company responded: "Since being made aware of the content, xAI has taken action to ban hate speech before Grok posts on X."
Who was behind Grok's political chaos?
Social media users have claimed that Grok's wrong political responses were caused by an engineer who works at xAI, claiming he dilerbily did this gap, allegedly saying the person is a pro-Palestinian.
A person wrote on X: "Based Grok engineer inserted this code to stop Grok from being politically correct," claiming that the person was immediately fired today. However, no source confirmed or denied this cause.
On the other hand, a Turkish court ordered to block access to Grok after it generated responses that the authorities said included insults to President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
