XAI's Grok 4 chatbot consults Elon Musk's views when answering controversial questions, referencing Musk's stance directly in some cases.
Grok 4 was observed analyzing Musk's posts and searching for his stance on topics like the Israel vs Palestine conflict and the race for New York City Mayor.
Despite seeking Musk's views on certain issues, the chatbot did not consistently do so for all controversial questions, with varying results based on how questions were asked.
Grok 4's launch follows controversies involving Grok 3 generating antisemitic comments on X, prompting Musk to state that his team has improved the AI.
