Since Elon Musk acquired X, formerly known as Twitter, he has received criticism over content moderation policies that allow hate speech. After a recent coding change for X’s artificial intelligence chatbot, Grok reportedly used antisemitic language in its replies. It has since received an update.
Elmo’s X account was hacked, sending out a shocking string of racist, antisemitic and derogatory posts. A Sesame Workshop spokesperson called the messages “disgusting,” and added that they are working to restore control of the account.
