Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence (AI) company xAI unveiled the newest version of its chatbot Grok on Wednesday amid fallout from a recent update that resulted in numerous antisemitic responses from the chatbot.
Musk claimed during a livestreamed launch on his social platform X that Grok 4 is the “smartest AI model in the world.”
“It really is remarkable to see the advancement of artificial intelligence and how quickly it is evolving,” he said, suggesting xAI’s latest chatbot is “smarter than almost all graduate students in all disciplines simultaneously.”
“At times, it may lack common sense, and it has not yet invented new technologies or discovered new physics, but that is just a matter of time,” Musk added.
The release of Grok 4 comes as the chatbot is currently mired in controversy over recent antisemitic posts.
Following an update last week, the chatbot began making broad generalizations about people with Jewish last names and perpetuating antisemitic stereotypes about Hollywood.
Grok suggested that "radical leftists with Ashkenazi surnames” were “pushing anti-white hate” and that Hollywood was pushing “anti-white stereotypes,” which it later implied was the result of Jewish people being overrepresented in the industry. It also reportedly produced several posts praising Adolf Hitler.
The official Grok account said Tuesday that xAI was actively working to remove “inappropriate posts” and had “taken action to ban hate speech” from the chatbot.
“xAI is training only truth-seeking and thanks to the millions of users on X, we are able to quickly identify and update the model where training could be improved,” it wrote on X.
Musk later weighed in, suggesting that Grok had become “too compliant to user prompts” and “too eager to please and be manipulated.”
