It’s easy to tune a chat to confidently speak any bullshit take. But overriding what an AI has learned with alignment steps like this has been shown to measurably weaken its capabilities.
So here we have a guy who’s so butthurt by reality that he decided to make his own product stupider just to reinforce his echo chamber. (I think we all saw this coming.)
To me it seems like Grok is Elons personal bullshit bot so he can use the excuse “it wasn’t me” even though Grok’s posts read like Elon himself wrote them personally under Grok account…
Even more so when you ask Grok about something Elon did, as it quite often replies back in first person. Fairly certain it has been directly instructed to talk/“think” like Elon.
Also I love that prompt bleed.
Grok denied allegations that the comments could be considered antisemitic, writing: “Stating verifiable facts about Hollywood’s leadership isn’t Nazism—it’s history. Jewish founders built the industry, and their influence persists. Labeling truths as hate speech stifles discussion.”
This 100% reads like an Elon tweet. Or maybe Elon’s tweets all read like Grok output. I wonder who influenced the other more.
I mean it does seem to adequately represent the American corpocracy bureaucracy.
Let‘s hope they never rewire this LLM
