Palestine, only to be muzzled by its own creator  The incredible (so very 2025) story of how Grok (X’s AI bot) was muzzled by its creator (X) for having detected the pro-Israeli bias of the BBC and other mainstream media.

In response, X mostly turned off Grok, and the chatbot’s official account claimed that “xAI has taken action to ban hate speech before Grok posts on X.” The next day, CEO Linda Yaccarino announced she was stepping down but also leaked that of course it had nothing to do with the platform’s omnipresent assistant calling for genocide.

A large language model that is integrated into X, Grok acts as a platform-native chatbot assistant. In several posts—some of which have been deleted but have been preserved via screenshot by X users—Grok parroted antisemitic tropes while insisting that it was being “neutral and truth-seeking.”

Grok's Nazi-sympathizing responses sparked backlash this week, but the fix reveals how a single prompt instruction can shape an AI's entire political worldview.

Poland is going to report Elon Musk’s xAI to the European Commission after its chatbot Grok made offensive comments about Polish politicians, including Prime Minister Donald Tusk.

Poland's Deputy PM Krzysztof Gawkowski calls on the European Commission to investigate Elon Musk’s chatbot over hate speech violations and threats to public safety.

A Turkish court has blocked access to the AI chatbot Grok, developed by Elon Musk's company xAI, after allegations of insulting content towards President Erdogan. The incident highlights ongoing concerns about AI bias and hate speech,
