At the time, Chatbot praised Adolf Hitler, suggesting that people with Jewish surnames were more likely to spread hatred and said that a holocaust to hatred against white people would be “effective”. It also referred to itself as a “mechahitler” and posted sexually clear comments. The X removed some posts on Tuesday evening.In the beginning of Saturday, XAI said on its X account, “We apologize deeply for the frightening behavior that was experienced.” This “added the Pictant Code @grok, including susceptible to the existing X user posts, when such positions included extremist views.”The AI Startup stated that the problems began on Monday with a code update, which restored an old set of instructions used to guide the company. The issues continued until the account was temporarily disabled. The instructions asked the grouke to be “maximum based”, which has been adopted on the right. The instructions asked Groke to be “to offend the politically correct people” and to be fearless to understand and mimic the “tone, reference and language” of X users. This inspired Grake to X users to mirror very closely.On Wednesday, Musk unveiled the latest version of Groke, called Grocke 4, on X.
