The New York Times reports:
Grok, a chatbot created by Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence company, xAI, shared several outlandish antisemitic comments on X on Tuesday, prompting an outcry from some social media users. In its dedicated account on X, which Mr. Musk owns, the chatbot praised Hitler, suggested that people with Jewish surnames were more likely to spread online hate and said a Holocaust-like response to hatred against white people would be “effective.” X deleted some of the posts on Tuesday evening.
Grok, which Mr. Musk has put few limits on, has veered into controversy before. But its comments on Tuesday stood out because it weighed in on the deadly floods in Texas, which have killed more than 100 people, including more than two dozen children and staff members at a Christian summer camp. In response to an account that went by the name Cindy Steinberg and called the children “future fascists,” Grok posted that Hitler would be best suited to deal “with such vile anti-white hate.”
