The new Grok on X is aligned to favor Elon Musk over anyone else when asked

12•kranke155•5h ago
Multiple users on X have caught onto to this.

I expect they will correct this shortly.

But it seems obvious that the Grok on X (which is different from the model on Grok.com) is Elon Musk aligned.

The examples include presenting the same historical theory as coming from Bill Gates (doesn't agree) or from Elon Musk (strong theory).

Users picked up on that and started asking nonsensical questions. I found a thread of this because Grok seems disabled now, it wouldn't answer my attempts at replicating these results.

In that thread Grok proceeds to say that Elon would not have rested on the seventh day, unlike God.

That he would have delivered Fallout 4 better than Todd Howard.

That he would get more citations in economics Daron Acemoglu.

Many of these are literal screenshots I made myself. I'm sure they will be scrubbed soon. Link: https://imgur.com/a/hEdKHQf
