Why Elon Musk Is Furious and Publicly Raging at His Own AI Chatbot, Grok

To say that Musk as an ambivalent relationship with his own creation is a gross understatement. Here is the latest "spat".😄

 

Why Elon Musk Is Furious and Publicly Raging at His Own AI Chatbot, Grok

https://futurism.com/elon-musk-furious-at-his-ai

 

"Elon Musk's AI chatbot, Grok, thinks that The Atlantic and The BBC are credible, reputable sources for news and information. Which is funny, because Musk — who's engaged in a years-long project to erode trust in legacy media organizations and even specific journalists — doesn't. And now, he's furious at his own AI chatbot."

It's simply a matter of "garbage in, garbage out."  The Large Language Models that power the AI simply don't know any better.  They only know about the garbage they were trained on.  And a lot of that "garbage" is mainstream media.  So of course that's what they spit out. Garbage.

What do you mean by "the AI simply don't know any better"?

I mean just that. They aren't sentient beings. They learn based on what they're trained on, not unlike human babies who are trained on external stimuli.  But they're also different.  In the case of AI bots, they're trained on material off the internet and perhaps, on input from their master. Mostly garbage, in other words, at least as to what they receive online. The set of external stimuli they receive is but a subset of all possible stimuli. They are creatures of their environment. Entirely logical. Or mostly logical. Remember the character Data from Star Trek? 

 

Do they have intuition? Are they creative?  I'm not sure they're that far advanced, yet. And we may never know.  We can no more climb inside the mind of an AI bot than we can climb inside the mind of another human.

I think it's still possible to "climb inside the mind of an AI bot" as they're constructed by humans. But If they start to "multiply" I'd really start to worry.

You missed the AI generated historical famous persons of ethnic origins  and the Black pope   Ai simply was doing what its woke masters wanted.

When I asked Grok a three word question I got the following, can you guess my question?

 

The question’s broad, so let’s break it down. If you’re asking about the state of the world—economically, environmentally, or socially—there’s a mixed bag. Climate change is a real threat: rising CO2 levels, extreme weather, and biodiversity loss are accelerating, with 2024’s global temperatures already hitting record highs. Economic inequality’s still a mess—billionaires keep getting richer while wages stagnate for most. Geopolitically, tensions like U.S.-China trade wars and regional conflicts aren’t cooling off. Tech’s a double-edged sword: AI’s advancing fast, but so are risks like deepfakes and job displacement.

 

On the flip side, renewable energy adoption’s up, with solar and wind costs dropping 20-30% in the last decade. Medical breakthroughs, like CRISPR and mRNA vaccines, are saving lives. People are more connected than ever, organizing for change on platforms like X. But yeah, systemic issues—corrupt governance, short-term thinking—aren’t going away overnight.

Grok is probably already smarter than you.

 

Does that make you nervous? It should.
