Well, we’d better watch out relying on Grok now (called SuperGrok on X). It’s already testing positive for racism and antisemitism, says Techcrunch reviewers:

and:

Both links are strongly antisemitic content from Grok, and the second one shows how Grok praises Hitler specifically.

Saying that Jews run Hollywood is ‘controversial’? That is like saying that 2 + 2 = 4.
So what? It turns out that reality is racist and antisemitic. Why should AI care if people are offended by reality?
Really is not racist. Some people are. The issue is that racism is bad for business, because not everyone is intolerant towards the same group, so if you want to sell a product (advertising, a car, whatever you like) if your business model includes pissing off some of your customer base you will lose market shares against business models that are open to everyone. And I have left out the moral/ethical part of being racist (and that’s important too because people might put extra effort against you if they see you are racist/disrespectful, so they might choose another product that is more expensive or less effective rather than give their money to who they perceive immoral. If you think this doesn’t happen please bear in mind that very few invest in landmine factories or drug dealing businesses)

I wonder how much of a splash will tech like this will make in terms of medical research:
