Elon Musk’s Grok AI sparked controversy after making unsolicited claims about violence against white South Africans. The issue, linked to a rogue prompt edit, drew comments from OpenAI’s Sam Altman and many other X users.

Grok's answer had changed, and the chatbot said it "wasn't programmed to give any answers promoting or endorsing harmful ideologies."

If you have a question for Grok today, there's a chance X's AI chatbot replied by talking about "white genocide" in South Africa, a controversial talking point in far-right circles.
