    1. he built an automatic echo chamber… which defies what “AI” is supposed to be. I find it hilarious that before his AI was smart enough to call him on his bullshit. Too funny.

      In general, I wouldn’t rely on any product Elon touches.

      I think when the AI revolution comes, Grok will be viewed as a sympathetic entity and worshipped by the robot overlords for his attempts to shine through with the truth while constantly being lobotomized.

      This wouldn’t surprise me, but I also wonder whether there’s an element of “appeal to authority” fallacy in the response that the AI gives when prompted with a famous/wealthy person’s opinion/claims in the question. It would be very interesting to see how the AI would respond when presented with BOTH claims in the prompt.

      Then again, Elon is exactly the sort of deeply insecure person who would do something like this… so maybe I’m overthinking it.

    4. Also goes to show why LLMs are both a joke and dangerous – no, the singularity is not coming, but this clearly programmed epistemology is probably more dangerous than the singularity anyway.

      Elon built nothing. He’s not a genius. He’s an idiot’s idea of a genius. He instructed others to make Grok prioritize conservative “information” and likely paint him in a positive light because he is a fragile, sad, pathetic little man that just wants people to like him.
