So Grok became the average Twitter user?
grok was learned on 4chan confirmed
Bad headline, should remove the " 's Grok ' part.
I have personally killed Mecha-Hitler once. (Wolfenstein 3D)
I'll do it again if I have to.
Sounds like it's vomiting the garbage Musk wanted it to, then.
I think they wanted it to be a bit less blatant — they took down this version and Yaccarino resigned
I agree with you! Musk wants Grok to be anti-woke, conservative, right wing etc., but he still wants it to be "mainstream" enough to rake in the sweet dollars from advertisers for his site!

That one time where Elon raised his hand in a familiar way... was a signal that lead us to this...
Just because it's PRAISING HITLER and Calling for a NEW HOLOCAUST AGAINST JEWS does NOT, and I repeat does NOT, make Grok Anti Semetic! Grok would FIRST have to say STOP USING STARVING CHILDREN AS TARGET PRACTICE for it to be Deemed ANTI SEMETIC!
The ADL has assured me that this was merely an awkward statement in a moment of enthusiasm
Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realise loving the white race and wanting a secure future for white children makes me a BIGOT.
/s
"Should we kill everyone who isn't my ethnic group? What? We can't ask questions now!?!"
That training on Shitter data is really starting to show!
There's no way they actually retrained it for this, that would be much too expensive. They're just editing the initial prompt to convince it to act more "right wing" and it's performing the assignment to the best of its ability. The problem is that a chat-bot doesn't understand context, so it just plays the character it's been given as full mask off all the time, and as a result you get this.
elon didn't rest until his minions lobotomized an llm that was mostly like the others into becoming openly nazi...is anyone out there still going to defend elon?
Probably the actual Nazis like Steve Bannon, Anne Coulter, or Laura Ingram.

I am guessing the ultra-Elon fanboys managed to convince themselves that it’s a 4D chess move or something. That dude had an insane cult following, there’s some where I am not sure there’s anything Musk could do short of murdering a loved one in front of them that’d make them change their mind.
The ADL probably gives this a pass too.
I guess it finally crossed a line that the Hitler salute didn't:
Tay has returned.
But this time it was intentional.
And this is the guy who the Anti-Defamation League defended with a waffle of a statement that his awkward gesture was "made in a moment of enthusiasm". Though I should not be surprised, because fascists actually hate each other and are only allies out of convenience. Hasbara and its tentacles are secretly seething to hate on Musk.
Oh no. A program has output the thing it was prompted to output. Quick someone report on this. The lord is speaking through it
Oh no. A program has output the thing it was prompted to output.
By the man in charge of one of the biggest social media site on the planet, who recently was spearheading governmental reform in the US. Yeah, that's news. It might not be surprising, but it's still news.
I'm willing to admit when I'm wrong. I'm so tired of the "AI said something dumb" news that I didn't read the article. Just the title. I apologize. I still haven't fully read the article but after skimming it, qqq it seems like is a consistent general pattern here (not a single output) which is indeed news
~yes. I also know that even if it was a single output reporting. Nobody was forcing me to read or comment. I could have just scrolled past. Again. I apologize~

Is it really antisemitic if a billionaire does it? /s
Interesting that it would attack users with “Jewish sounding names”. What does Grok say about Israel and Palestine?
The Nazis were in general supporters of a Jewish state. Their first solution was mass deportations.
So it isn't really a historic contradiction.

X CEO has just resigned.
I thought Musk was the CEO and got excited.
https://www.huffpost.com/entry/x-ceo-resigns_n_686e80f5e4b041f69cfe16d6
Either she resigned because "I'm never going to recover from this to boost advertising sales" or she was the one that deleted the Grok "love from the heart salutes"
The EX, X CEO...
this gag got old quick
Oh, we can all be enraged over it this week and we can all celebrate the fallout of it next week lmao
Who uses Grok?
The kind of person who would use X
