Musk's AI Grok Pushes "White Genocide" Claim in Bizarre Replies on X | Firstpost Africa | N18G
Elon Musk’s AI chatbot Grok is under fire after it repeatedly brought up the controversial and widely debunked claim of “white genocide” in South Africa, even in response to unrelated queries like baseball stats or funny fish videos. The responses, all posted publicly on X, left users confused and sparked fresh concerns about the chatbot’s accuracy, bias, and moderation. In one case, Grok linked a user’s casual question about society to systemic collapse and white genocide. While some of the posts were later deleted, Grok’s handling of the topic raised alarms about how AI tools interpret and amplify fringe narratives, especially as Musk pushes for deeper integration between his AI company, xAI, and the social media platform.
