The new Grok 4 didn’t make it halfway through its first day on the job before hurling racial conspiracy theories at users.
This is the same Grok that Elon Musk promises will be added to Tesla vehicles by “next week at the latest.”
You’ll remember that Grok 3 was briefly shut down just earlier this week for a different bunch of antisemitic outbursts. This doesn’t bode well for the state of AI safety guardrails or Q/A at xAI.
Aren’t you guys glad that we dismantled government regulation of businesses long ago? Now we get cars that are racist! Yaaaaaay!
clears throat
blows up a cybertruck
Unfortunately, you’ve been replaced by AI.
… so, the Cybertruck will blow itself up.
… so, the Cybertruck will blow itself up.
… “just before giving control back to the driver”?
Lmao, when I was a kid I thought we’d have flying cars in the future, but we got racist cars instead…
Elon Musk: noo don’t call my tesla cars swastikars
Also Elon Musk:
don’t call my tesla cars swastikars…
… that’s reductive, they have so much MORE potential!
And this is why I will never buy a Tesla.
Aw, c’mon. There are a lot more reasons not to buy a Tesla than just this.
Y’all thought we were joking when we called them Nazi-Mobiles. We very much weren’t.
It is amazing how desperate the goddamn Nazis are to spread their psychotic ideology. Do they not know what happened last time they did this?

I’m sure this is the USP that will restore sales in Canada!
Cool, now your Swasticar can have a real MechaHitler to guide you to your next hate rally.
MechaHitler, take the wheel
That is the MOST Pro Semetic thing I’ve heard!
-The ADL and Chuck Schumer!
Imagine your car refuses to start because the name on your registration sounds “too Jewish.”
I expect we’ll see a spate of Jewish sounding motorists getting trapped in the car with windows disabled and exhaust fumes diverted to the inside of the car (even though it’s electric; technology finds a way)
Your Cybertruck now identifies as a WWII era Porsche tank.
Adding fuel to burning Teslas. What a brilliant idea.
Damn, I can’t short Tesla anymore than I already have.
He’s propped up by foreign governments.
If I was a Tesla owner, the only thing I’d want to know is if I could turn Grok off.
As a Tesla owner (from several years ago, before Elon got this bad), I’m not installing any updates until I can confirm they don’t come with MechaHitler.
What guardrails? Grok was intentionally designed without any. Don’t believe me? Go on the website and ask if to generate something awful - it’ll happily comply. Really disgusting way to handle AI.
The most fucked up thing is that Grok does seem to have guardrails — except they’re geared towards preventing it from being “too woke”
Yea, that’s actually a more accurate way to phrase it. Ask it to generate something with Hitler and it’ll happily oblige, ask it to generate something supporting trans rights and it’ll block you.
I got banned from Twitter for saying the word “cisgendered.”
So they DO know how to build limitations into the software! They’ve just done it in a fucked up, dystopian way :)
Edit: LOL I asked Grok… Cisgendered is filtered as a supposed slur, while both the R word for the mentally disabled and the hard R word for the pallor-impaired, neither of those words are filtered as slurs.
Par for the course for Apartheid Space-Karen.
Saying that the Holocaust was faked and that Jews control the world isn’t antisemitic.
Saying genocide is wrong is antisemitic.
