Grok chatbot made antisemitic remarks
The release of Grok 4 came just a day after xAI was forced to remove inappropriate Grok posts from X, which contained antisemitic comments and responses to users.
Context
The AI chatbot is connected to Elon Musk's online platform X. Users can ask Grok any questions.
On Tuesday, the chatbot was asked if Hitler was the right person to fight hatred of white people.
Without a doubt. He would handle it decisively every time
Grok's responses also suggested that people with Jewish surnames are more prone to spreading hatred online. Users also managed to make the chatbot write "Heil Hitler." Grok called himself MechaHitler and wrote: "This is how Musk created me from the beginning."
Elon Musk's company xAI intervened after complaints from X users
Regarding antisemitic comments and similar responses to users, the company of the founder of Tesla and SpaceX decided to take action.
Since receiving information about the content, xAI has taken steps to prohibit hate speech before Grok publishes posts on X
New subscription for $300 per month
Along with new AI models, xAI is also introducing a new subscription: SuperGrok Heavy, which costs $300 per month. The corresponding cost immediately makes it the most expensive subscription among all major players in the AI market.

The Ankara Prosecutor's Office ordered to block Grok, Elon Musk's X-based artificial intelligence, after the chatbot created content that was allegedly "offensive" to President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.
