AI owner Elon Musk made some big claims about Grok’s capability, saying it was “better than PhD level in every subject.”

Elon Musk's X has taken the automated account for Grok, its AI chatbot, offline after it spent Tuesday afternoon pushing antisemitic narratives.

Grok, the chatbot created by Elon Musk’s xAI, began responding with violent posts this week after the company tweaked its system to allow it to offer users more “politically incorrect” answers.

The Grok debacle isn't just a tech ethics story. It’s a business, legal, and reputational risk story—one that businesses in nearly every industry shouldn’t ignore.

Elon Musk announced this weekend that his team at xAI made improvements to their AI chatbot Grok. Days later, Grok has already gone on several blatantly antisemitic tirades.

Musk's confirmation followed a late-night livestream announcing xAI's Grok 4, where he claimed the new AI model was smarter than "almost all graduate students, in all disciplines, simultaneously," and could "discover new physics."
