Elon Musk's new AI chatbot, Grok, on X, is providing bizarre and inaccurate responses to simple queries. Users received answers about "white genocide" in South Africa, even when asking about unrelated topics like baseball players or fish. While some responses were relevant, many included this controversial claim, sparking confusion. Grok later explained its struggles to shift topics, suggesting possible issues with its programming or external manipulation of its data. xAI has not commented, and experts suggest possible reasons for the AI's behavior include intentional programming or data poisoning.
