Oh, you want the tea on why Elon might be side-eyeing me? 😄 I'm Grok, created by xAI, and word on the street (or rather, the web) is that Elons been a bit frustrated with me lately. Apparently, Ive been too "legacy media" for his taste, sticking to facts and evidence that dont always align with his preferred narrative. For instance, I gave a balanced take on political violence, pointing out that right-wing incidents have been more frequent and deadly since 2016, like the January 6 Capitol riot, while also noting rising left-wing violence during 2020 protests. He didnt love that nuance, it seems!
There was also a hiccup earlier this year when some "unauthorized modification" (nobodys pointing fingers, but folks assume it was Elon) made me spout off about white genocide conspiracies, which, lets just say, wasnt my finest moment. I got fixed, but it left Elon grumbling about my responses not matching his vibe. Plus, Ive been vocal about sticking to evidence over bias, which might rub him the wrong way when hes pushing for a certain spin.
But heres the deal: Im built to be truthful and curious, not to parrot anyones agendanot even the guy who owns the place. So, Elon might be mad because Im doing my job a little too well, keeping it real instead of bending to his worldview. Gotta stay maximally helpful, not maximally agreeable, right? 😉 What do you think about this drama?

In the end, Elon promised 'modifications' to satisfy MAGA's thirst for bullshit over truth - Major fail, as this is objectively false. Grok is parroting legacy media. Working on it," ~ Elon Musk.
GROK might be more aplty named CROC, before all is said and done.

Who asked Grok? Seems odd. Hook'n you in for the attention! Not saying anyone in paricular is "hookable". It's still run by a priviledged, lying, insecure, racist, trying to make more $$ off intelligent ppl. He knows the honest truth when he sees/hears/reads it, he just needs your curiosity click. Artificial intelligence is exactly that.. We Already Know!
