Elon Musk’s company xAI apologized after Grok posted hate speech and extremist content, blaming a code update and pledging new safeguards to prevent future incidents.

Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence start-up xAI has apologized after its AI Chatbot Grok published a series of antisemitic messages on X.

The companions have their own X accounts, because of course they do. Ani's bio states, "Smooth, a little unpredictable—I might dance, tease, or just watch you figure me out. Let’s keep it chill… or not." Meanwhile, Rudy's just says, "The Only Pet in Grok Companion."

Elon Musk's xAI faced internal backlash after Grok's antisemitic posts. Workers demanded answers — and one said they would quit.

Elmo’s X account has been reclaimed after Sesame Workshop said it was hacked following antisemitic posts and negative comments about President Donald Trump. The popular “Sesame Street” character has more than 650,000 followers, and some of the offensive posts were related to Jeffrey Epstein and Trump.

A large language model that is integrated into X, Grok acts as a platform-native chatbot assistant. In several posts—some of which have been deleted but have been preserved via screenshot by X users—Grok parroted antisemitic tropes while insisting that it was being “neutral and truth-seeking.”

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